BEING HIGH AND MIGHTY ... BUT MOSTLY JUST HIGH
Credible drug law reform is gaining momentum as evidenced by Ron
Paul's popularity ( Ron Paul Attracts High Turnout, Nov. 29, 2007 ).
At the very minimum it's time to re-legalize the relatively safe
God-given plant cannabis ( kaneh bosm / marijuana ) which is safer than
alcohol especially when compared to whiskey. Cannabis hasn't killed
one person in over 5,000 years of documented use while cigarettes
murder over 1,000 Americans daily and the plant is less addictive
than coffee.
Dennis Kucinich is another presidential candidate calling for drug
law reform and will regulate cannabis similar to alcohol if elected
and will also end the war. In fact if Kucinich was elected last time
We wouldn't be in Iraq today.
Further, it is time to allow "free" American farmers to grow hemp,
just like communist Chinese farmers.
Truthfully,
Stan White
