Hemp? The most valuable plant is illegal in America

:)I apologize for my ill manners. I just don't have much patience for folks who refuse to face the ugly truth about the super rich folks who control things. The Tavistock Institute and Operation Mockingbird gang have done such a fantastic job of programming people to believe such nonsense. Again, I apologize for being so insulting. I probably shouldn't participate in such forums with so many idealists who reject the idea that virtually everything is a conspiracy today. The honest truth, IN MY OPINION, is that things are much, much uglier and more diabolical than most folks believe.

Again, forgive me. I honestly wish we were ruled by a more loving group of trillionaires. The world could be such a wonderful place. However, the truth appears to be, IN MY OPINION, that the Jesuit General, along with his Rothschild-led trillionaire banker friends are at the very top of the Global Pyramid of Power, calling the shots. They rule the world. Remember, IN MY OPINION, those with the most gold rule.

Again, please forgive me for being so insulting to those of you with whom I disagree. You are entitled to your opinions and I should show you respect, regardless.

I honestly love you. I know that seems ridiculous to say after being so insulting, but I really do. Why? Because I believe that Einstein's Unified Field is also intelligent, and that we are all connected, all part of the oneness, making us all part of the same whole, bothers and sisters so to speak. I think of all of us as gods within GOD. Yeah, some may disagree but this is MY OPINION.

I love you. Please forgive me for being unloving. I honestly do feel bad when I act that way, so I do feel the pain. However, now that I've told you I love you, I feel MO BETTA.

Perhaps you could carry out some research into the properties of hemp oil yourself. You've clearly got a good supply already.
 
I think a good economic argument could be made to legalize it and tax it. The scientists at Philip Morris and RJ Reynolds could no doubt grow some kick-(rule10) weed.* And if you taxed it at, say, $500 a pound, you could raise a whole lotta revenue.

* - Assuming they don't already, that is

ETA: Look what time I made this post.. ;)

"I'm sorry I'm so much smarter and know so much more than all of you people" is not an apology.

Especially when you are so obviously none of those things.
 
I don't see why hemp is illegal.

Because people make pot out of it? I think this is so ridiculous.

I think Marijuana should be legal. That way they could just sell the damn thing in a Pharmacy, it could be taxed, drug dealers would be out of business as there is no way they could get something as pure as this. You could even extract the Delta-9 THC and put it in capsules or in some kind of inhaler. That way you can get high without the smoke.

Out of all the drug-addicts, pot-addicts are probably the least harmful behavior wise (the smoke ain't good though -- but either is cigarettes)

Hemp is illegal because it resembles pot and is in the same family. It was unfortunate that it resembled MJ plants.

Personally, I don't give a damn if it or MJ was legal or not. What bugs me is that lies and conspiracy tales are being told as part of an 'end around' tactic that is not only deceptive (read the Straight Dope column cited in this thread) but also would lead folks to have hopes far too high on this crop. Just over 10 years ago, the legalization crowd would have you believe that the moment Hemp was legalized Global Warming would stop and all our pollution woes would dry up with the first harvest.

t'ain't so.

Agreed. The tactics Some of the tactics used by some of the people who consider themselves part of the Legalize It™ crowd use really are nothing more than pro-weed propaganda.

Even though I don't smoke marijuana at all (nor do I abuse drugs at alll, including tobacco or alcohol), I guess I'm still a part of the Legalize It (tm, LOLZORS!!111one) crowd. I suppose, also, that pointing out how many people go to jail thanks to owning and/or ingesting marijuana, and how much of a strain that's putting on our prison system, is "nothing more than pro-weed propaganda".


Either that, or maybe you were painting with a rather broad of a brush, as you failed to define what the "Legalize it (tm)" crowd was supposed to incorporate, exactly.

Bah. It's this one. I guess I should say "some of the tactics that some of the people who consider themselves part of the Legalize It™ crowd".

So you think that a "Marijuana plant" is something different from "Hemp"?

Poor choice of words on my part, but the basis remains. Cannabis strains cultivated for any industry could not be distinguished from those used for the drug of the same name. That is why the entire family was banned, not for any real fear of it being competitive with other industrial sources.
 
Well, many people, especially older people, don't know that the Cannabis plant is both the good old "Hemp" and the source for the infamous "Marijuana". They would have to look it up. My Grandfather giggled when i told him what that evil drug was...

That's why Anslinger and his backers invented the propaganda term "Marijuana" in the first place. It was mexican slang and played with the racist prejudices of that time.

The hemp plant has been used in all kinds of ways, including smoking the blossom, for hundreds of years, all over the world, kookbreaker - why "ban" it just at the same time when eventually the machines were developed to industrialise it?

You are far too optimistic about hemp's potentials. See my first post in this thread. Most of the folks named as being conspirators didn't give a fig about hemp, and its 'industrial potential' in the 30's was pretty much a pipe dream.
 
Looks like we gotta live one, Pa!! Darn, and right after I tried to counter the argument that pot doesn't make you a gullible, CT believer.

Hell, there are countless people participating on this forum who still believe Osama bin Laden was responsible for the crimes on 9/11. Why? The government told them so. The the official 9/11 report is proof, right?

I'm affraid you guys might be wasting your breath by arguing with a "truther." If he treats this subject with the same scrutiny as 9/11, I'm affraid you'll never convince him that it's not David Roc's fault marijuana is illegal. I'm just waiting for the whole "Jews don't want pot to be legal" argument to surface in 5, 4, 3, 2......

Why why why can't the pro-marijuana movement just come out and say:

"I enjoy smoking weed. It's harmless. It should be legal. I want it legalized so that I and others can continue to smoke and enjoy it."

Okay, okay, I enjoy smoking weed. It's harmless. It should be legal. I want it legalized so that I and others can continue to smoke and enjoy it.:D
