Finally-Moxie in Motion!

This was originally published in 2014, I am re-posting it with updates.

Government officials spend wasted hours talking trash about and dumping blame on each others for a career but once in a while something catches the peoples eye and demands their attention.

This time it is the consciousness of the American masses that see a bill passed unjustly in the 30’s, 87 years ago and have found through research (until recently that our sound government has fought to hide and make it illegal to pursue this research) that health benefits abound along with other uses for this versatile plant that may benefit our people as a whole.

I became aware of this in the early seventies thanks to a new organization called NORML. http://www.norml.org has been standing up and fighting for reform since it’s inception in the 1970’s and I admit that for many years I just let them do their thing and smoked marijuana for pleasure not paying attention to what they were trying to get done.

I’m positive that many of my generation did the same as it was a different time back then. I refuse to believe that marijuana is a gateway drug to other harmful things such as heroin but rather a dumping ground for politicians to use scare tactics on the unknowing population and by taking advantage of our ignorance told us it would drive us crazy among other non proven lies.

In 1929 Harry J. Anslinger became assistant commissioner for the treasury dept.’s bureau of prohibition and in 1930 became the founding commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics. He held office from August 12, 1930 – August 17, 1962 He had a belief that marijuana was the major force of crime especially murder. In a February 1938 Reader’s Digest article he stated “There must be a constant enforcement and constant education against this enemy , which has a record of murder and terror running thru the centuries”.

“REWIND”

A gateway? How about the fact that if you tell a child the fears inside isn’t real? Do they just accept that and move on? Or how about when you discover that by doing that you don’t go blind? “The boogie man only goes after bad boys and girls” ??? Sure these lies were meant to reassure us as children but as we grew we found that it was just a bubble for our parents to tell us that for “our own protection”… Stop lying to us.

“I am not a crook!

1969 brought us another Quaker that also held high office. And like Harry he had a hard on against marijuana. Richard M. Nixon began to amp up the war on drugs and in 1975 a part of his program was to spray Mexican marijuana with paraquat to kill the plants. the result-I along with many Americans smoked poison coated “weed”. Nixon reveals his thoughts on tape in 1971-Drug education; “Enforce the law, you’ve got to scare them”. No shit, check it out!

No it didn’t stop us from enjoying our youth, make us crazy murdering zombies or lead to the destruction of our youth. Agreed I and many others like me didn’t stand up at the time and fight for our right and that is a mistake I regret. But now is our 2nd chance at redemption and I am not going to waste time in letting our government know this is a stale, mislead law that needs to be removed from the books and become a blemish in the history books.

Admit it Biden and your cohorts! You know the public is right on this one and you should be spending not only your time but also the wasted resources involved correcting more dangerous matters concerning this country. Do you want [I bet so!] to go down in the history books as a President that helped our country or another failure in a growing line of past Commanders in Chiefs that just got mixed up in the hoopla?

It’s time for everyone to make sure we turn inward and find peace in ourselves and try to ween this country off of big Pharma’s that fund our government to be the real pushers of drugs!

What do I mean? I am simply stating that if we as a whole KNOW that marijuana has medicinal benefits why are we not utilizing it? We have to STOP this insanity once and for all my friends and we can do it by standing up to big brother and his money funding corporations. Put FREE back in Freedom!

Myself I would much rather use a weed that turns into a flower in my mind than take man-made who knows what the side effects are drugs just because some Quakers from the past told us we couldn’t. PRES. BIDEN ABOLISH THIS LAW!! PEACE MY FRIENDS

until next time –
