Gary Johnson ~ Marijuana Is Much, Much Safer Than Alcohol

Alcohol is the gateway to drug, not marijuana.It is a no brainer: don't vote the idiots into office. Alcohol numbs brains and kills brain cells so that is why it is legal. Cannabis makes people think and open their minds, that's why it is illegal. Cannabis, LSD, mescaline and all those mind expanders are schedule 1 for a reason. It scared the crap out of the establishment in the sixties.The bottom line here is MONEY! If the states start legalizing Marijuana, it means less money for police departments who depend on the income from arresting people and fining them for having it. So of course your going to have the Anti-Pot people making false statements like "It's a gateway drug". They know it's not, they just want the money to keep flowing in from the arrests. Less money means Cuts to all local law enforcement.

Cannabis Revealed: Why Is Marijuana Illegal?

The vilification of beneficial plant life has been heavily promoted and the violations of possession have been enforced by the American government for decades. At a cost of untold billions and the incarceration of millions for simply using a plant for personal use, non-violent "offenders" fill our jails and make more money in multiple ways for those who benefit most from keeping cannabis illegal.

First our government said it was beneficial. When the war was over it was declared to be dangerous and illegal.

A breif history of the cannabis industry and it's eventual prohibition!

Legalize Cannabis for the Health, Happiness and Prosperity of All!

Dr. Sanjay Gupta Apologizes Being Wrong About Medical Marijuana: Americans 'Terribly Misled'

8/7/13 - CNN's Sanjay Gupta, a neurosurgeon, apologized on Wednesday for publicly opposing marijuana legalization, saying science was clearly on the side of the drug. "I think we have been terribly and systematically misled in this country for some time, and I did part of that misleading," he told CNN host Piers Morgan. Though studies on marijuana in the United States tended to focus on the drug's negative effects, Gupta explained, research from across the world had made marijuana's positive effects clear. He said there was "no scientific basis" to claim marijuana had no medical benefits. "I think it is irresponsible of the medical community not to offer this as an alternative," Gupta added, citing the high rates of deaths from prescription drugs. "I couldn't find one documented case of someone dying of a marijuana overdose."

Gupta also admitted he had tried smoking marijuana, but "didn't particularly care for it." He said it made him feel anxious.
