Pharma Market Protection- confirmed by No on 3 in Massachusetts

Image
No on 3- an anti MJ legalization lobbyist group reveals prohibition is all about Pharmaceutical market protection- telling us that Sativex is ok while supporting maintaining the ban on natural MJ http://mavotenoonquestion3.com/the-joke-is-on-us-or-is-it/ The first video is a throw back to major quacks as Harvey Wiley who banned the non carcinogenic Opium and Coca leaf, for the sake of protecting markets in pharmaceuticles and cigarettes. Plants as medicine are bad- nevermind the Bible's Book of Genesis. But pharmaceuticals are good- so much so that they must be protected by mis-defining people possessing or growing their own as "crime". Such is the big money reason behind such sorry excuses of politicans as Obama-Romney's contempt for public opinion and basic decency, debasing the judicary as accomplices to a costly and ongoing criminal mercantilism.

US Green Jill Stein- We would actually use science to determine which drugs are dangerous and which ones are not.

http://www.isidewith.com/blog/43316191-interview-with-jill-stein Are you in favor of legalizing all drugs or just marijuana? We would do something revolutionary. We would actually use science to determine which drugs are dangerous and which ones are not. That means right off the bat marijuana and hemp are removed from the list of dangerous substances because these are not dangerous substances in relative to other unregulated substances including nicotine and alcohol. We would start with the legalization of marijuana and transform the drug system from a criminal system to a public health system. If people have issues of dependency which would apply to legal drugs as well as illegal drugs including alcohol, tobacco, marijuana and heavier drugs they need to be treated within the public health system. These are psychological problems not criminal problems. If you don't treat the problem it only aggravates it and compounds it with issues of public safety and criminal violence that are...

Mitt Romney's Selective Compassion

  Ted and Pat Oparowski, citing Romney's compassion of visiting their young son with cancer. The boy died.   http://www.boston.com/news/local/vermont/articles/2012/08/31/vt_couple_says_romney_helped_ill_son_before_death/ MONTPELIER, Vt.—A Vermont couple says they're grateful to Mitt Romney for helping them and their terminally ill son decades ago when he was suffering from cancer.   Speaking Thursday at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., Ted and Pat Oparowski, of Randolph, tenderly recalled how Romney befriended their 14-year-old son David as he was dying of cancer in the late 1970s.   Pat Oparowski said they would "be ever grateful to Mitt for his love and concern."   She said Romney, who they knew through their church in Massachusetts, spent time in the hospital with their son, helped the boy write a will and bought him fireworks that were eventually set off in Maine.   She said Romney also gave the boy's eulogy at his funeral.    He...

New trial date set for Dana's bench (no jury) trial: Monday, August 27, 2012. From the Nebraska court calender: Beal,Irvin,D, 08/27/2012 8:30AM 01 Trial to Court State v. Irvin D Beal CR090000091 http://www.nebraska.gov/ courts/calendar/index.cgi Dana's contact info in jail as of April 20, 2012 By Nancy J. Allen in FREE DANA BEAL FREE OURSELVES ( Files ) · Edit Doc Dana's trial in Nebraska for transport of medical marijuana is scheduled to begin on August 27, 2012. He needs financial support and support in the form of letters to be written to Judge Mary Gilbride and to be mailed to his attorney, Glenn Shapiro. (Do not mail them to the judge.) Please write those letters of support for Dana ASAP. "They" are not allowing a medical marijuana defense, so those letters are extremely important! They will be used as a "proffer", i.e. evidence not permitted at trial that is entered into the record, to be used at appeal. If the judge gets ...

Dana Beal- Setting the Record Straight

Setting the Record Straight Posted on Facebook by Nancy J. Allen in FREE DANA BEAL FREE OURSELVES · First are the links to the two articles written by Paul Hammel in June, 2012 for the Omaha World-Herald regarding Dana's case in Nebraska, followed by Dana's response: "Marijuana Advocate in a Tough Fight" - June 12, 2012   http://www.omaha.com/article/20120612/NEWS97/706129933/0   Court Rejects Medicinal Marijuana Argument" - June 20, 2012   http://www.omaha.com/article/20120620/NEWS/706219997/1690   "Setting the Record Straight" by Dana Beal - June 29, 2012 Dear Paul [Hammel]:   Thanks for the article, but as always, a few little inconsistencies crept into your well-intentioned coverage. Most important, our understanding with the Manhattan DA’s office does not allow for a dispensary. We meet in the apartments, which change every week, of patient “hosts.” Hosts get their medicine for free. Dennis Brennan was one such host. Given the threat of ongoi...

Dana Beal - Legal Necessity

Image
The sheer injustice of banning safer substances for the sake of protecting more dangerous ones demands these prohibitions be nullified.  A legislative failure to respect basic liberties is no requirment upon the judiciary to follow suit, as our oath is not to the legislature but to the U.S. Constitution. - some future judge This was the basic defense offerered by Dana Beal's legal counsel, which was rejected by Judge Mary C. Gilbrite http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Necessity+defense A defense asserted by a criminal or civil defendant that he or she had no choice but to break the law. The necessity defense has long been recognized as Common Law and has also been made part of most states' statutory law. Although no federal statute acknowledges the defense, the Supreme Court has recognized it as part of the common law. The rationale behind the necessity defense is that sometimes, in a particular situation, a technical breach of the law is more advantageous to societ...
