Barack Obama Doesn’t Support Marijuana ( Cannabis ) Decrim / Legalization

admin — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 10:37:18 +0000

Mike C from http://mikecann.net http://BostonFreedomRally.com video.

Despite what an MPP (Marijuana Policy Project) video seemed to suggest, Barack Obama does not support marijuana decrim.

On the subject of cannabis Barack Obama is weak and most certainly does not support marijuana decrim.

Support a politician in a day and age where 75%+ of voters support medical marijuana and he says, “I won’t risk any political capital for it”. Support that?

That’s not worthy of our support or vote.

We are the majority, we know what is right, we demand it!

This video was in response to a series of videos by MPP that seemed to suggest that Barack Obama was near perfect on marijuana reform.

http://mpp.org

MPP has responded 7 months and 10,000 views of this video later. We were glad to see that they have at long last presented a more balanced video in response to this video. We were heard. MPP acknowledged our points about their coverage of candidate Barack Obama.

Send a message to Barack Obama that luke warm support and worrying about political capital is unacceptable on the issues of medical marijuana and decrim.

Obama Campaign Retracts Statement Supporting Decriminalization
http://norml.org/index.cfm?Group_ID=7506
February 8, 2008 – Washington, DC, USA

Washington, DC: Senator Barack Obama’s campaign backed away from statements made last week affirming the Senator’s support for decriminalizing marijuana, after being confronted with inconsistencies in his past and present campaigns on the issue by the Washington Times.

A spokesman for Obama’s campaign blamed confusion over the meaning of decriminalization for the inconsistencies, and said that while Obama does not support decriminalization, “we are sending far too many first-time, nonviolent drug users to prison for very long periods of time, and that we should rethink those laws.”

For more information, please contact Allen St. Pierre, NORML Executive Director, at: allen@norml.org. Full text of the Washington Times article can be found at: http://www.washingtontimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080201/NATION/43529865/0/FRONTPAGE.

Would Obama supporting marijuana reform help or hurt him in the election? Smart money says that the 80% that support medical marijuana would be a boon for his candidacy see this link for more info on how it would help his campaign! This is 2008 not 1980!

Contact Schwarzenegger Today

admin — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 09:38:53 +0000

Hello Californians, I want you to contact our Governor.

On Tuesday May 5, 2009 Cinco De Mayo California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, stated that he believed there should be a debate about the legalization of marijuana. Bravo! Yet, he doesnt support legalization. Boo!

The governor of the Golden State has had a erratically fickle relationship with legislation of cannabis and cannabis itself— in the past. Now hes saying we should look at other countries that have legalized cannabis.

Yet the leader of the 5th (or is it 8th) largest economy in the world has, as recently as last year, vetoed several bills regarding cannabis or hemp, the non-intoxicating/medicating version of cannabis. With a stroke of a pen he signed away medical cannabis Patients right to employment without cannabis-drug testing and signed away an industrial hemp bill.

Yet Arnold has opening admitted to smoking cannabis. Dont believe me? Do a Google search. Theres pictures and video of the Govenator admitting to using and partaking in cannabis consumption before he became a 3-piece-suit politician.

Now, I just have one thing to say to Arnie. Grow some balls! The debate on medical cannabis has already been had by Californians when in 1996, the earthquake State legalized cannabis for medical use. And 13 years later there are a total of 13 states that have done similar with several other states working on medical cannabis legislation right now.

Yet when it comes to our States rights to governor ourselves, our Governor has been silent. We,
Charles C. Lynch supporters and family, have repeatedly contacted the Governors office to ask for his assistance in Charlies case and weve never heard back from him.

And I have a feeling there are dozens of other Federal marijuana patients that were following state law who Arnie has been silent about. Dozens of families who have reached out to him and gotten a cold/terminator shoulder.

Well that where you, as YouTube viewing Californians, come in. We need to make a concerted effort to hold our government accountable for their actions and inactions. So far we have let Governor MovieStar get away with vetoing important bills and allowing our brothers and sisters to be locked in Federal cages for providing medical cannabis to qualified patients in California.
I dont know about you but that makes me sick.

They, meaning the government, can only get away with what we let them get away with and weve let them get away with far too much.

Please join me and stand up for our 10th Amendment right, the rights of Californians to govern their own laws without the intimidation and interference of the federal government. Please contact Governor Schwarzenegger today. You can choice how you wish to contact him: by phone, fax, email, snail mail, by making an appointment with one of his staff members or some combination of all of the above including all of the above.

Im going to provide you with a link to Schwarzeneggers contact info. Please, take an active role in your government and protect good people, like Charles C. Lynch, from being punished for something that is legal in his own state of California.

Contact the Governor today and share this video with all your California-cannabis-friendly friends and loved ones. Thank you. Peace. Lets keep California GREEN!

THC effects on Tumor Brain Cells, Normal Brain Cells

THC effects on Tumor Brain Cells, Normal Brain Cells
——–
THESE VIDEO SEGMENTS TAKE PLACE IN 20 HOURS OF TREATMENT, THIS SHOULD NOT BE CONFUSED WITH SECONDS OR MINUTES FROM THE TIME STAMP. REPEAT, 20 HOURS OF TREATMENT.

Tetrahydrocannabinol, also known as THC, Δ9-THC, Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol), Δ1-tetrahydrocannabinol (using an older numbering scheme), or dronabinol, is the main psychoactive substance found in the Cannabis plant. It was isolated by Raphael Mechoulam, Yechiel Gaoni, and Habib Edery from the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot, Israel in 1964. In pure form, it is a glassy solid when cold, and becomes viscous and sticky if warmed. An aromatic terpenoid, THC has a very low solubility in water, but good solubility in most organic solvents such as butane or hexane. As is the case with nicotine and caffeine, the role of THC in Cannabis, it seems, is to protect the plant from herbivores. THC also possesses high UV-B (280-315 nm) absorption properties, protecting the plant from harmful radiation.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahydrocannabinol

This video highlights the effects of THC on human brain cancer cells (also called GBM) and normal brain cells.

The video on the LEFT of the screen is of normal brain cells. The video on the RIGHT of the screen is of brain cancer cells.

This video shows that THC, the active ingredient in Marijuana (ie Cannabis) has a detrimental effect on Brain cancer cells, while having little effect on normal brain cells.
