I write a lot of letters, especially about issues that are important to me. A lot of people don't realize it, but sometimes these letters have an impact. Especially when these representitives can see just how many people took the time to write about something they care about.

I don't know how many of my letters have fallen on deaf ears, but I know several of them have made an impact.
 
Why do the Richest 1% pay less taxes than 99% of the nation. Republicans and Democrats this is for you;


╭∩╮(︶︿︶)╭∩╮

Oh and I think Congress should only get paid when they get something done that betters the People and not the Elite!!!!

Hi light 1
I'm with you but this is my conspiracy theory . Not only is hemp surpressed here but all over the world. You can manufacture a lot of things from hemp . Surprizingly a lot of those things can be made from petroleum products. Is it possible that big oil has bought every politician in the world ?

Can you say DUPONT ??
 
Did you know, it is estimated that hemp has approximately 25,000 uses? From food, paint and fuel to clothing and construction materials, hemp is used. There are even hemp fibres in your Red Rose® and Lipton® tea bags. And several cars made today contain hemp.

The oldest relic of human industry is a piece of hemp fabric (canvas) found in ancient Mesopotamia dating back to approximately 8000 B.C. The oldest surviving piece of paper was made over 2000 years ago in China and was also made from hemp fibre. In 2500 B.C. the pharaohs used hemp in the construction of the great pyramids.

Hemp was so important in England in the 16th century that King Henry VIII passed a law in 1553 which fined farmers who failed to grow at least one quarter acre of hemp for every 60 acres of arable land they owned. There was even a time in history for over 200 years when you could pay your taxes in America with hemp. In 1850 there were more than 8,300 hemp farms in the United States.


Every 3.6 seconds someone in the world dies of hunger. Hemp seeds are the most nutritious and economical solution to end world hunger. With an 80 percent concentration of "good fats" our bodies need for good health maintenance and protein with all eight amino acids plus optimum dietary fibre, hemp truly is a "perfect balance" food source.

Health Benefits of Hemp Seed >>

Nature has provided the essential nutrients for restoring and maintaining optimal health in a power-packed seed that is gluten, cholesterol and sugar free. Pure, natural, raw shelled hemp seed - the best single food source of protein, essential fats, vitamins and enzymes on the planet.

The first diesel engine was designed to run on vegetable oils, one of which was hemp oil. In the 1930s Henry Ford produced an automobile composed of 70 percent hemp plastic which also ran on hemp based fuel and oil. In 2001 the "Hempcar" circled the North American continent powered by hemp oil.


The paintings of Rembrandt (1606- 1669), Vincent Van Gogh (1853-1890) and Thomas Gainsborough (1727- 1788) were painted primarily on hemp canvas, often with hemp oil based paint. Over 50 percent of all chemical pesticides sprayed are used in the cultivation of cotton. Hemp is eight times stronger than cotton and more air-permeable. Hemp can grow vigorously (up to 16 feet) in 100 days without the use of harmful pesticides and herbicides... healthier for your skin and the environment.


One acre of hemp can produce as much raw fibre as 4.1 acres of trees. Pulping hemp for paper would produce a strong paper that lasts incredibly long and doesn't yellow with age. Also, using hemp as a raw source for paper would eliminate the need to cut down our dwindling old-growth forests which contribute to climate control and clean the air we breathe.

The real reason Cannabis has been outlawed has nothing to do with its effects on the mind and body


"MARIJUANA is DANGEROUS".

Pot is NOT harmful to the human body or mind. Marijuana does NOT pose a threat to the general public. Marijuana is very much a danger to the oil companies, alcohol, tobacco industries and a large number of chemical corporations. Various big businesses, with plenty of dollars and influence, have suppressed the truth from the people.


The truth is if marijuana was utilized for its vast array of commercial products, it would create an industrial atomic bomb! Entrepreneurs have not been educated on the product potential of pot. The super rich have conspired to spread misinformation about an extremely versatile plant that, if used properly, would ruin their companies.


Where did the word 'marijuana' come from? In the mid 1930s, the M-word was created to tarnish the good image and phenomenal history of the hemp plant...as you will read. The facts cited here, with references, are generally verifiable in the Encyclopedia Britannica which was printed on hemp paper for 150 years:


* All schoolbooks were made from hemp or flax paper until the 1880s; Hemp Paper Reconsidered, Jack Frazier, 1974.


* It was LEGAL TO PAY TAXES WITH HEMP in America from 1631 until the early 1800s; LA Times, Aug. 12, 1981.


* REFUSING TO GROW HEMP in America during the 17th and 18th Centuries WAS AGAINST THE LAW! You could be jailed in Virginia for refusing to grow hemp from 1763 to 1769; Hemp in Colonial Virginia, G. M. Herdon.


* George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and other founding fathers GREW HEMP; Washington and Jefferson Diaries. Jefferson smuggled hemp seeds from China to France then to America.


* Benjamin Franklin owned one of the first paper mills in America and it processed hemp. Also, the War of 1812 was fought over hemp. Napoleon wanted to cut off Moscow's export to England; Emperor Wears No Clothes, Jack Herer.


* For thousands of years, 90% of all ships' sails and rope were made from hemp. The word 'canvas' is Dutch for cannabis; Webster's New World Dictionary.


* 80% of all textiles, fabrics, clothes, linen, drapes, bed sheets, etc. were made from hemp until the 1820s with the introduction of the cotton gin.


* The first Bibles, maps, charts, Betsy Ross's flag, the first drafts of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were made from hemp; U.S. Government Archives.


* The first crop grown in many states was hemp. 1850 was a peak year for Kentucky producing 40,000 tons. Hemp was the largest cash crop until the 20th Century; State Archives.


* Oldest known records of hemp farming go back 5000 years in China, although hemp industrialization probably goes back to ancient Egypt.


* Rembrants, Gainsboroughs, Van Goghs as well as most early canvas paintings were principally painted on hemp linen.


* In 1916, the U.S. Government predicted that by the 1940s all paper would come from hemp and that no more trees need to be cut down. Government studies report that 1 acre of hemp equals 4.1 acres of trees. Plans were in the works to implement such programs; Department of Agriculture


* Quality paints and varnishes were made from hemp seed oil until 1937. 58,000 tons of hemp seeds were used in America for paint products in 1935; Sherman Williams Paint Co. testimony before Congress against the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act.


* Henry Ford's first Model-T was built to run on hemp gasoline and the CAR ITSELF WAS CONTRUCTED FROM HEMP! On his large estate, Ford was photographed among his hemp fields. The car, 'grown from the soil,' had hemp plastic panels whose impact strength was 10 times stronger than steel; Popular Mechanics, 1941.


* Hemp called 'Billion Dollar Crop.' It was the first time a cash crop had a business potential to exceed a billion dollars; Popular Mechanics, Feb., 1938.


* Mechanical Engineering Magazine (Feb. 1938) published an article entitled 'The Most Profitable and Desirable Crop that Can be Grown.' It stated that if hemp was cultivated using 20th Century technology, it would be the single largest agricultural crop in the U.S. and the rest of the world.


The following information comes directly from the United States Department of Agriculture's 1942 14-minute film encouraging and instructing 'patriotic American farmers' to grow 350,000 acres of hemp each year for the war effort:


'...(When) Grecian temples were new, hemp was already old in the service of mankind. For thousands of years, even then, this plant had been grown for cordage and cloth in China and elsewhere in the East. For centuries prior to about 1850, all the ships that sailed the western seas were rigged with hempen rope and sails. For the sailor, no less than the hangman, hemp was indispensable...

...Now with Philippine and East Indian sources of hemp in the hands of the Japanese...American hemp must meet the needs of our Army and Navy as well as of our industries...

...the Navy's rapidly dwindling reserves. When that is gone, American hemp will go on duty again; hemp for mooring ships; hemp for tow lines; hemp for tackle and gear; hemp for countless naval uses both on ship and shore. Just as in the days when Old Ironsides sailed the seas victorious with her hempen shrouds and hempen sails. Hemp for victory!'


Certified proof from the Library of Congress; found by the research of Jack Herer, refuting claims of other government agencies that the 1942 USDA film 'Hemp for Victory' did not exist.


Hemp cultivation and production do not harm the environment. The USDA Bulletin #404 concluded that hemp produces 4 times as much pulp with at least 4 to 7 times less pollution. From Popular Mechanics, Feb. 1938:


'It has a short growing season...It can be grown in any state...The long roots penetrate and break the soil to leave it in perfect condition for the next year's crop. The dense shock of leaves, 8 to 12 feet above the ground, chokes out weeds.
...hemp, this new crop can add immeasurably to American agriculture and industry.'


In the 1930s, innovations in farm machinery would have caused an industrial revolution when applied to hemp. This single resource could have created millions of new jobs generating thousands of quality products. Hemp, if not made illegal, would have brought America out of the Great Depression.


William Randolph Hearst (Citizen Kane) and the Hearst Paper Manufacturing Division of Kimberly Clark owned vast acreage of timberlands. The Hearst Company supplied most paper products. Patty Hearst's grandfather, a destroyer of nature for his own personal profit, stood to lose billions because of hemp.

In 1937, Dupont patented the processes to make plastics from oil and coal. Dupont's Annual Report urged stockholders to invest in its new petrochemical division. Synthetics such as plastics, cellophane, celluloid, methanol, nylon, rayon, Dacron, etc., could now be made from oil. Natural hemp industrialization would have ruined over 80% of Dupont's business.


THE CONSPIRACY

Andrew Mellon became Hoover's Secretary of the Treasury and Dupont's primary investor. He appointed his future nephew-in-law, Harry J. Anslinger, to head the Federal Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.


Secret meetings were held by these financial tycoons. Hemp was declared dangerous and a threat to their billion dollar enterprises. For their dynasties to remain intact, hemp had to go. These men took an obscure Mexican slang word: 'marihuana' and pushed it into the consciousness of America.

I copied and pasted this information from a different site {The Marijuana Conspiracy}
 
It's a vicious cycle y'all, the rich control the government, the government controls law enforcment, law emforcment controls us, we vote in the government, the rich controls the government...you see where I'm going with this? we just have to take control of the gov.with a mass collection of votes and get the ones in that are not just in it for the buck, but truly care about the little man/woman. That's the only way to break the cycle.

We just need to find out if their is such a thing as a politition that is'nt in it just for the money...that's a laugh! And the odds of having an entire government like that? Down right histerical

How do we win? That's the million, no, billion, wait, trillion dollar question!

That's why I get so frustrated when I write a big long thread on activism and I sit and wait forever it seams and no one wants to add just a little bit of input, that tells me that nothing will ever change because people will not look at the big picture! That's that place outside of that little box people want to stay in.

"Let someone else do everything" seems to be the stoner creed

It's a conditioning thing, people are conditiond to believe they will go to jail for speaking out. This is a tactical ploy by burocrats to keep us in our place, constitution be damn'd, freedom of speach has no merit where mj is concerned, thats what people have been conditiond (brain washed) to believe and, bottom line, people are terrorfied to admit the truth because of this!

Will this war ever end? Not likely, as long as our numbers stay at just a small handfull of passonate people carrying ALL of the burdon on their shoulders...the oposition just laughs at those lone few and trucks right along, pissing on our dreams of true freedom!

This is not ment for the ones who are here at 420 mag. as we made it this far but, where we fall short, is getting every smoker we know to get involved with us. Then it will be our job to teach them correctly how to make a difference!


There, Thats my 2 cents :peace:

Welcome aboard 420 Warrior, Glad to have a Free Mind such as yourself here. I don't know about Ron Paul, I'm researching all the good and bad things about him... I am amazed at how well we communicate and don't have to say a single word. Great minds think Alike...


Hi light 1

Big Oil has alot of Power and maybe they have bought off most politician's in the world. I would like to believe that some people still care about the Average Person... They are far and few inbetween but they're are out there.... Hemp can be made into damn near anything oil based products can be made into. I think the Oil and Lumber companies back in the day bought alot of political power, by throwing nothing but cash at Congress...

I apoligize for not answering your question in a timely fashion, I have been very busy... That's no excuse, I honestly forgot about this question...
 
Our opposition;
1.oil
2.alcohol
3.pharma
4.tobacco
5.law enforcment
6.big government

All of these will fight to our death to keep canna reform from seeing the light of day.

These are just a few of the main ones but, I'm sure their are many, many others we have to overcome.

Nobody said it was going to be easy, we just said we have to change these unjust laws no matter what it takes so that the future of this country is free from tyrany :peace:


btw; thanks 4 the props L1^, warriors like us are few and far between! :thanks:

It may not be in that order but all of the things you stated enslave us all in one way or another....

Some the people are just sheep do not research any facts and love to follow suit....


I think for myself and try to open people's minds....




:peace:
 
Yup, I agree, that is'nt in order but, really? is their an order? Or, do they just feed off of one another...I'm not sure haw it really all goes down but, I do know that their greed comes at a high price and the fear they instill on the avrage American should not be tolorated.

Our great land has been fought and died for by so many brave people that if we let liberty be over turned by tyrany, we, as Americans have just let their sacrafices all be in vein...and that dog just aint gonna' hunt, as we say down here in the deep south!

Our constitution is supposed to be concrete and the final word and these a-holes just use it to wipe their arses, that aint right and we should not stand for it...period!!!

I'm sorry to rant people but, if you could just see haw bad it has gotten here in the home town I grew up in...my God, it's like I walked back in time into Nazi occupied europe.

These freakin' cops look just like solders who are getting ready to go fight the talaban..wtf? Are we terrorist now?

Ok, I'll give y'all a mental picture to put it into perspective; My drive to/from work is only about 15 minutes and in this short drive, every day...I mean every single day, there are ,at bear minimum of 5 cops sitting on the highway and usually more!

Most days these consist of 2 cycle cops, 3 crusers, 1-2 k-9 units and alot of times they have black unmarked suv's riding along mixed into traffic.

That's buisness as usual for these Nazi's brothers & sisters...and buisness is booming! I've been seeing our fellow smokers falling like rain for far, far too long! For what? Non toxic plant material used for medicine? Hell, I could be next! Not me though, they will have to shoot me down in cold blood!!!

And y'all wonder why I'm so mad and why I'm so passonate about what I write? Well, there ya' go! I can't help it...the south is under siege! We need help!!!

This war is unfair but they just don't care as they hold all the cards and that just aint fair. 420 mag is where I call home and I'll keep on writing until their all gone!

I did forget one other entity in that list of opositions...the bible thumping christians
The chirch really hates canna as they always follow just about anything the government says.

I actually tried to enter their world for a few, but every time the preacher started dogging/judging people just like us, I could'nt help but get offended and...well, that was that.

I will never again sit down and listen to anyone that just run's people down for not conforming to their sinical views...count me out of that one buddy!
