500,000 a year is Mass Murder

[MSimon]

People want to know what it is about Prohibition that makes me so crazy about the subject. So let me tell you:

I discuss how cannabis fights cancer generally and brain cancer specifically.

The US government has had this information for about 40 years. (evidence at the link). Also US Patent 6630507
http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Pars ... PN/6630507

and this little ditty: Phytocannabinoids in the treatment of cancer - US 20130059018 A1
http://www.google.com/patents/US20130059018

Cancer currently kills 586,000 Americans a year. The research could have been completed and medical distribution set up in 5 years. So we have had about 35 years of 500,000 Americans a year dying of cancer that didn’t need to. That is over 17 million deaths to keep Prohibition in place. That is right up there with Stalin, Mao, and the Austrian Corporal.

Cannabis cures cancer. Cancer kills 586,000 Americans every year. Republicans (generally) favor killing those people to keep Prohibition in place. Every Prohibitionist is complicit in mass murder.

And people wonder what makes me crazy. Mass murder makes me crazy.

Did you know that Steve Jobs was a pot smoker?

I thought he died of cancer? you must be wrong

The effect, had you studied the literature, is dose related. He didn't smoke enough. In fact he probably couldn't have smoked enough. He would have had to use the high THC high CBD oil.

If you watch the last 8 or so minutes of the first video here:

You will find that there is a protective effect from smoking. But it is small. BTW Donal Tashkin who did the study was at one time an ardent Prohibitionist. Until he discovered the anti-cancer effects of cannabis.

================

It is funny all the magical thinking out there. You wouldn't expect to boil a pot of water with a drop of oil. But a puff of smoke kills all cancer cells in the body.

That is not how it works. It takes a kilo or two of high grade raw cannabis to make enough high THC high CBD oil to cure cancer. If cannabis was totally legal the cost would be on the order of $100 to $500 to cure cancer.

Compare that to what we currently spend on cancer cases.

What is also interesting is that we have so many experts on a subject of which they are totally ignorant. I can help.

The last claim of the huckster: He did it wrong.... he did not pray hard enough....he stopped too soon.

If MJ ever become medicine then somewhere in the world of medicine it will be legal, mainstream , double blind studied , have effective proofs and big farm will have it locked up tighter than a barrel. I will not discount that there is some places for marijuana in the rolls of medicine (Marinol) but until I see what I need to see, I consider its main purpose to be a recreational drug and that is the driving force behind its use.

So one dose of antibiotics will cure your disease? And what if the anti-biotic you were taking did not work on your disease?

You know nothing of the science. But no matter. I intend to beat you with pr.

Cannabis cures cancer. Cancer kills 586,000 Americans every year. Every Prohibitionist is complicit in mass murder.

And why will that work? Because there is more than enough evidence to back it up. For those who care to look.

I must say though - your ignorance is my advantage.

BTW you can't double blind study an illegal medicine. Very clever Catch 22. But if you want some evidence watch the first 7 or 8 minutes of the first video here:

http://classicalvalues.com/2014/11/cann ... the-brain/

The evidence is not controversial because of what we know about how the endocannabinoid system works and how it works against cancer.

I LOVE discussing this with people who prefer to remain ignorant.

The US government no later than Sept of 1975 knew that cannabis was effective against cancer. Gerald Ford ordered the research destroyed. He didn't quite succeed. But because of that the Republicans will become known as the Mass Murder Party.

And then there is this little ditty:

"Look, we understood we couldn't make it illegal to be young or poor or black in the United States, but we could criminalize their common pleasure. We understood that drugs were not the health problem we were making them out to be, but it was such a perfect issue...that we couldn't resist it." - John Ehrlichman, White House counsel to President Nixon on the rationale of the War on Drugs.

Have a nice day.

So is every anti-nuke.
Nuclear power can replace coal power and biofuel power. Petro-Carbon fuels kill ~10,000 per DAY. Bio-carbon fuels kill ~ 12,000 per DAY. Assuming the death toll from nuclear accidents remained the same, replacing the two would result in the deaths of about 16 people per day. NOT using nukes results in the deaths of ~22,000 people PER DAY!!! Anti-nukes are mass murderers!

The deaths from carbon fuels are calculated based on various factors and how they are attributed.

The deaths from cancer are COUNTED. There may be some miscounting. But counting is way more accurate than attribution.
