GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH!

I never thought I would find myself in favor of legalizing Cannabis much less any other drugs. As far as Cannabis goes, I've known many people over my life that have been smokers/consumers of Cannabis. For the most part, I would say they were fairly descent people, no different from any others. All different races, cultures, etc… The one common denominator is that they all consumed Cannabis for one reason or another.

The war on drugs has primarily targeted the consumers of cannabis. I say consumers because the word users has a negative connotation to it and abuse is virtually impossible. Anyway, back to the war on drug and the Federal agencies primary targets. Why do they target the Cannabis users? Simple, Cannabis is the single most widely consumed substance. Of all drug busts roughly 75% or more are for Cannabis

I used to support the war on drugs without a second thought. With every bust reported on the news I would smile thinking these federal agents were making our country safer. Now I have never turned anyone in for drugs. I've always gone by the live and let live policy. Everyone gets what's coming to them soon or later and I have no desire to increase my karmic debt.

So, now what has occurred to make me change my mind? I read a report about a drug raid that was accidentally performed on the wrong home. Then I thought holy crap, some cops are gonna lose their badges over that, The cops terrorized the family. Deliberately shot and killed the family pet and laughed about it. Making jokes to further torture the family's children. Nothing happened to the out of control police officers! We always say what about the kids, gotta keep drugs prohibited for the kids sake. I started researching into prohibition further.

What I found was disturbing. Our government is maintaining a prohibition that was passed by congressional committee based upon untrue racist claims and lies that demean us as US citizens. Now we have a black president that is maintaining this prohibition that was designed to control the minority races. This was back in the late 1930's; have we not educated ourselves beyond the ignorant white supremacist ideologies of that era? A black president maintaining a racist prohibition? Really, in what universe does that make sense?

Hillary Clinton says there is no way the US can end prohibition, there is too much money in it for the politicians and the rich of course. Now how can the politicians be making money from prohibition…. I had to think on this a while. I finally concluded that they had to be "recycling" the drugs by putting them back on the black market and selling them. Maybe they even keep some for themselves, who drug tests the politicians? But wait….

What does it take to support a war on drugs? Weapons, ammunition, specialized vehicles, body armor and uniforms for the troops. Storage facilities for equipment, impound facilities for vehicles and other confiscated items. It's the behind the scenes opportunities where money is being made as we all know all the suppliers bid for their services and are awarded exclusive contracts. How many politicians are getting profits from these contracts of opportunity for support services for the war on drugs?

So the federal agencies are making the politicians rich on both ends of the spectrum. Supplying weapons to Mexico, which almost immediately go to the Cartels. Recycling confiscated drugs and forfeiture of asset auctions that they get even more money from. Now Jessie Ventura and his conspiracy theory show, followed some of the things our government has been doing that all tie in together with the movement for legalizing and regulating drugs to end the drug war. These so-called FEMA camps that Jessie found that our government is paying for via legislation the co-sponsors of the bill didn't know was attached to it because they didn't bother to read it. They were getting enough hush money to look the other way. The video is on youtube check it out for yourself.

So our government has the facilities prepared to incarcerate us "We the People" and the head of the homeland security has the full authority to command it. He is the one the bill puts in charge of ordering the incarceration and then there is the site with the thousands of "coffin liners, (each will hold 4 bodies) which were moved right after Jessie & his crew were there. You think the citizens of Montana and Wisconsin are having a tough time now? Just Wait the shit hasn't even begun to hit the fan. The Wisconsin governor gave part of the plan away when he declared that he was prepared to use the National Guard on protestors, citizens of Wisconsin! The very people he was elected to represent. The people of Wisconsin should have his ass out of office so fast the paint wouldn't even be dry on the door yet. You don't threaten the very people that elected you to represent them!

Let me say that again, "You (elected officials) do not threaten the very people that voted you to represent them. The "War on Drugs" is designed to do exactly that target and incarcerate citizens that choose to exercise their constitutional freedoms and rights! The Government feels that they can pick and choose what rights and liberties we can have. People can burn our flag but you can't burn a joint? How about some common sense!! Please!!

Get our troops out of the foreign countries and take care of the terrorists and dictators here in our own country! The People's Republican Party has launched a strategy to give them total control of our country and they are starting with the states that have lower population centers for a good reason. It is easier to hide prisoners in the wide-open spaces than near large cities. Now there is no way they could lock up enough people once martial law is declared, that brings us back to the coffin-liners.

Remember Nazi Germany and the concentration camps. Yeah, they have to have some form of population control. This is perhaps even more evident given our countries current expanding prison system. They simply can't keep incarcerating people and house them. Beside the people, being incarcerated will be guilty of crimes against the state or a national security threat. Once the prison is full, they have to start deciding who to eliminate. Or maybe they just eliminate all the prisoners at one time with some virus like H1N1, who ever heard of a virus labeled like some government experiment? That would be the people doing government experiments.

Go ahead and kick back, take it easy. You're a law abiding citizen; Until your neighbor needs to cut a deal to reduce his prison time so he names you and a few others as dissidents or traitors or whatever and then your house is swarming with men wearing black and screaming at you and your children to get down and don't move. Then it is your family pet being shot for sport and amusement. It can happen to anyone, it could be happening right now!

Now the government is spying on everyone openly and with the new TSA technology, they can spy into your home whenever they want. You won't even know, until they come knocking down your door and hauling you away because you had something on your property that could possibly be used as a weapon or whatever other reason they decide. A lot of this technology used in the capacity of locating terrorist cells and preventing terror attacks sounds great but they are using it to incarcerate people that have nothing to do with terrorist acts or terrorists in general.

I would rather have my Liberty and personal freedom and take my chances in life than to let the government take my freedom in the name of national security or trying to keep me safe by incarcerating my family or me. One of our Revolutionaries back from the 1770's is quoted as stating, "Give me Liberty or Give me Death" I want to say it was Patrick Henry. I'll look it up later. My point is and it is an important point, "We the people", have let the Federal and even State Governing bodies get away with so many questionable legislative acts that it is hard to tell that we once actually had any freedom at all. Yes, it was Patrick Henry quoted form a speech he gave: http://teachingamericanhistory.org/library/index.asp?document=506 I have copied the final paragraph as it is the statement to which I refer:

It is in vain, sir, to extentuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace—but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

Not to sound corny or like I'm some sociopath or homicidal maniac, but never have I felt those words ringing in my head more than during these past few years. The Republicans (I often refer to them as "The People's Republican Party) have enacted a great number of laws limiting our rights curtailing our freedoms. Under the auspices reign of "THE PEOPLE'S RUPUBLICAN PARTY" The citizens of the UNITED STATES have become a nation under siege from wit in where survival by evasion and deception and conformity under duress have replaced the right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

The DEA and State Attorney Generals running smash & grab scams on Medical cannabis growers/users

The DEA and certain State Attorney General’s have been running smash & grab raids on Medical Cannabis growers and dispensaries. The rush in like a bunch of thugs take all the money, the expensive grow equipment and the plants. These broad based and vague warrants they are using to justify breaching the citizens right to due process and destroying property with out properly charging and convicting anyone. It is written specifically in the “Bill of Rights” of the “US Constitution” they can’t break down the door and assault and terrorize everyone! It is spelled out in our constitution! Why is this being allowed? How much of what they confiscate is actually being destroyed or sold on craigslist. What is being done with the money they are stealing?

Mexico has these supposedly ruthless Drug Cartels Here in the US it’s the DEA. At least Mexico tries to differentiate between the murderous drug cartels and the police/Army. I am in no way downplaying the severity of the situation in Mexico, In fact every death since Leonhart has been acting head of the DEA until now is on her head! She thinks the body count is proof that the DEA is winning. Winning what? martial law for all states? stripping the Bill of rights from our constitution? What is the DEA’s real objective?

Here in the US the Government just gives them a badge and looks the other way. They have raided the wrong houses killed unarmed people, shot children and slaughtered family pets for sport! ridiculed their victims! The DEA is not a law enforcement agency, they are a government sanctioned terrorist organization and are also being used in foreign countries to help militant dictators retain power.

Yeah, the videos are on you-tube. I guess the government wants to leave them up there so everyone that sees them will be afraid of law enforcement officers. Our governing bodies are resorting to totalitarian environment to attempt to repress our freedom.

The worst part of it is, we the people are paying them to subjugate us! Yean we pay taxes and our governing bodies ignore what the people want in favor of what they (the elected officials) want us to have. It is really supposed to be we get what we want (our freedom) and the elected official get a 50% pay cut, NO Expense accounts, NO government car unless required by your position! No personal jet except in times of emergency and then only for which ever official is taking over whatever position. Any Airline could have a plane ready to go at any major airport, if it’s a national emergency get them where they need to be. Flying back and forth to their home state, fly commercial on your own tab!

Medical Pot Patient Robbed, Beaten; Cops Take Plants While He's Dying - Toke of the Town

Read this story very carefully. Note the order of what the police did and when they did it. Also note what they did while the guy was dying in the hospital.


Medical Pot Patient Robbed, Beaten; Cops Take Plants While He's Dying - Toke of the Town

I think it was a set-up of some kind and I think the cops were in on it. It's all too convenient!

Could Cannabis have saved the life of your child/parent or other close relative?

Recently several medical reports have become public thanks to the patients and the parent of patients that are determined to let everyone know that Cannabis has the potential to cure certain types of cancers!

So my question is, now that you know Cannabis could potentially heal your loved one, who happens to be suffering from cancer and the crippling side effects of chemotherapy, Do you still think it should be a banned substance?

What about all of you that have had family & friends lose the battle with cancer, on to find out now that the government has known about the potential of cannabis in curing cancer and the kept up their cover-up of Cannabis properties. Our own government has been waging a war against drugs although they spend the majority of their budget on Cannabis eradication. The DEA allocates 75% of their budget to bust cannabis users. Especially in states that have medical cannabis legislation approved by law.

So our fellow Americans are being tortured with conventional cancer treatments; while the government sits back and spews the same garbage they have since the 1970’s. The whole time watching as families are bankrupt trying to pay for the medical treatments and procedures, watching while families lose everything in the attempt to save their child or other relative while the Governing Bodies of the US have been sitting on the potential cure or at the very least something that would ease the suffering of most if not all cancer patients. The governing officials let your family and friends suffer and die because the special interest groups paid them to keep it illegal. The drug manufacturers paid the government to keep it illegal until such a time as they could develop an effective preparation of Cannabis that they could patent and maintain exclusive rights to the substance and bleed Americans dry for the privilege of using it to treat their loved ones. The Oil companies want to keep Hemp illegal because its development would signal and end to the nations dependence on foreign oil, any oil would be out performed from hemp seed oil!

These are not the actions of a free people being represented by unbiased officials. this is a nation under siege by corrupt politicians!!

We the People of the United States of America are under police rule of a government that is bent on increasing the laws limiting our freedom and granting themselves ever expanding power to advance their corrupt policies!

If you like the way our government is abusing their powers then do nothing, you will most likely be among the last to be imprisoned.

If you, like me are tired of the government officials taking advantage of the people and trying to micromanage our freedom then the time to stand up and do something has passed you by. You can however stand up now and declare your intention to remain a free citizen without the government interference in our everyday lives! WE THE PEOPLE decide the laws of this nation not the special interest groups!

The time to advance our peaceful movement to another level. Still peaceful yet more vocal! Write your elected officials, state and federal! All of them the President, the Governor, all the state and federal representatives and senators! You can also write to your state pharmacy board and request that they reschedule Cannabis to a class II or better.

Write your statement and save it to a file then just copy & paste it everyday into a new message to your officials! We need them to get the message in a respectable manner in order for them to listen to us!

We are a nation built from the ashes of a bloody revolution! While we are capable of forming such an event again it is not in our best interests; The DEA is shedding enough blood for the time being.

Peaceful yet vocal until such a time as our elected officials have proven that they are corrupt beyond redemption. then we will pursue other legal venues to remove them from office!

Things That Really Suck Quite Often

Sometimes things just suck and some Things suck all the time. so in no particular the thing that suck for me on a continuing basis

• Depression it’s a real downer. You never know when you mood will lift but you can be assured is can go down faster than and intern on Clinton.
• Anti-Depression medication. it sucks, it can and does cause weight gain. That makes me even more depressed.
• Many of the medications I have been on over the past close to 10yrs have some really crappy side effects. I already have respiratory problems I don’t need medication that causes respiratory problems as a side effect.
• Meds that make your heart feel as though it will jump out of your chest and makes you all shaky and jittery. oh and apparently can eat at your stomach and intestine and  cause ulcers.
• Bi-Polar disorder, at least I know why shit doesn’t’ make sense half the time.
• ADD really? that’s why I screw up so much shit. I can’t stay focused most of the time. If I become obsessed with something I still have a hard time focusing but it’s easier to stay on task if I’m working on something I am obsessed with.
• Racing thoughts yup I think it goes with the ADD thing
• Anxiety such a lovey thing non stop adrenaline rush from hell! sometime it can run for days. most often if I am tired.
• insomnia I usually have to be exhausted before I can sleep for any length of time.
• Avoidance issues I just can’t seem to relate to other people very well apparently so I avoid them. I even avoid the people that I enjoy spending time with!

A lot of the medications side effects suck. If medical Marijuana works as well as people claim it does then I’m willing to give it a shot. It can’t be any worse than the crap I have to go through now. I have primarily been a drinker over the years. I was never really into smoking pot. I never bothered to learn  much about it. Needless to say I have learned a lot over the last year, well almost a year.  I quit drinking last September. so I have been virtually vice-less for almost 7 full months!

All my problems while for me are difficult to deal with but I know there are people with worse problems than the ones that I have. The people around the world that have suffered from severe natural disasters. Earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, fires and in some areas looters and gangs roaming among the refugees beating the helpless and raping women left and right all because of  a disaster that has disrupted the normal law and order  of the region.

Though I struggle with my situation it is most assuredly better than what many people will be facing in the coming weeks. I’ve been to Japan, beautiful country, great people. Devastated by an earthquake, then the tsunamis hit and finally the Nuclear Reactors are near melt down. from what I know of the people of Japan, they will rebuild, they will recover eventually and they will be a stronger country when they complete their recovery efforts.

The New Higher Cost of preterm Labor medicine

 

"Makena" the drug used to prevent preterm birth for pregnant women used to cost $10.00/ea dose; BUT now that KVPH has exclusive rights to make it, the cost is $1500.00/ea dose!! Their justification Premies cost about 50K for care so the 31K price tag for full regimen is worth the cost to patients

You wanna send the greedy heartless bastards an e-mail: drugsafety@kvph.com
I emailed them concerning this outrageous price-gouging, greed fueled Bull Shit & told them what I thought. What I got back was a song and dance about how it is now FDA approved where as before is was basically made in each individual hospital or local lab. I really don't give a shit some one needs to stand up the these  con-artist pharmaceutical companies and tell them enough is enough!!!

And all of you thought I was only pro choice when it came to Cannabis and Hemp, didn't ya, lol
