Rick Simpson and the last hemp plant left from raidI think it’s safe to say that the issue of medical marijuana proves that government exists for the purpose of something, nay, anything other than our betterment. Considerable research exists that shows remarkable medicinal properties from cannibis while other research has proven it to at least be largely harmless.

The truth is that the greatest danger from marijuana is that bad things happen to those found by the authorities to possess it. That’s a symptom of our police state, not marijuana use.

A clear majority of Americans favor the legalization of cannibis for medicinal purposes. Yet the senseless persecution of its users and providers proceeds unabated. Surely something else is at work here. Something like the preservation of medical and, in particular, cancer industry profits. I think many people have suspected as much for quite some time. This parallels the outlawing of the hemp industry for the benefit of the timber industry.

Now comes a sad story out of Nova Scotia, Canada of a man who has gone to great lengths to not only prove the benefits of hemp oil, but to provide it to sick people free of charge. One would think that such a thing would be welcomed and admired by Canadians and their government. Yeah, right.

Nope, just as Galileo and others suffered persection for having the audacity to reveal truth that proved inconvenient to powerful people; now Rick Simpson has been prosecuted and imprisoned for his actions. Below are links to a seven-part documentary of the story of Rick Simpson entitled Run From the Cure. I think everyone should take an hour to view these videos and come to understand what really lies behind the evil and irrational persecution of users of this natural medicine.
