I really don't think this group needs an introduction. It should be self-explanatory... :D

I'm definitively in the camp that marijuana should be legalized, since I don't think any type of prohibition works, except for making the dealers or corrupt officials richer, and tempting kids even further. But i'm also in favor of education. And…Continue

Nice Comment
No difference, neither have THC. Cannabis oil does have THC.
What is the difference between hemp CBD oil and cannabus CBD oil?
If medical Cannabis/Marijuana is legal in the state your reside then shouldn't it be tax deductable from state taxes as a medical expence - the same as other pharmicuticals?
http://www.alternet.org/drugs/10-benefits-medical-marijuanaAlternetCancer is the second most common cause of death in the U.S. resulting in at least 584,881 deaths, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Recent animal studies show that marijuana extracts can help kill certain cancer cells and even reduce the size of some of them. But, marijuana is still illegal in several states. The number of people who’ve died due to an overdose of marijuana? None.
The National Institute on Drug Abuse describes medical marijuana as “using the whole unprocessed marijuana plant or its basic extracts to treat a disease or symptom.” The Food and Drug Administration has, however, neither approved nor recognized the drug as medicine. So far, 25 states have approved the usage of medical marijuana.
Medical marijuana is available in a variety of forms. It can be smoked, vaporized, consumed as a pill or can be added to brownies, cookies and chocolate bars. Here are some of the benefits of using the drug as medicine.

The Hemp for Victory clip isn't very complete. Farmers who signed up for the program and grew hemp with male children of draft (into the military) age were exempt from the military because hemp was important for the war effort.
Perhaps the update for my computer is causing problems as well as NING

Welcome to a line of products based off our ever popular pain stick. Derived from ancient eastern medicine and a modern wonder recently returned to the masses from exile, cannabis.
Harnessing the anti-inflammatory properties of decarboxylated cannabis, and made from a blend of fifteen different herbs, essential oils, waxes and butters, our products are infused from all natural ingredients into natural oils. No concentrates are used in making our products. Our products are all handmade and hand packaged. Available in a variety of application methods so you can tailor your pain relief needs to fit your lifestyle.
Our roll on oil is the base oil in our other products and is the most potent. The lotion is the easiest to apply on arthritic hands and is good for use on large areas. Our handy pain stick and lip balms are life tested and melt on your skin and not in your pocket. The soaking salts are popular for M.S. and Fibromyalgia for those who need whole body relief. Take a look in our store for even more great products.
If cannabus were taken off the list of the DEA list of schedule 1 drugs perhaps medicine that was benificial to patients could be studied and made available.
Always follow the money in the U.S. =(
Neal that is an interesting way of looking at it and I think it makes sense. Follow the money
Indiana enjoying more crazy:
I have a new and self-imposed policy that I follow when I see a news report of some bull-headed politician proposing some law to put low-level drug possessors in prison. That rule? Follow the money, of course.
Because something hideous is festering under the surface of these laws. It's the private prison lobby, which makes campaign contributions to secure harsher penalties. You see, these prison companies are in need of warm bodies, since they can put those people to work inside the walls of those prisons. The companies double-dip, too, pulling in a guaranteed sum from the state in addition to whatever they can make with their legalized slave labor. Weed offenders are just the sorts of people these prison profiteers are looking for. They're mostly non-violent people who will comply. They can be put to work without much worry.
This week, Indiana got into the mix, as its governor Mike Pence pushed for changes to legislation on drug crime. Among his suggested changes:
Tougher marijuana possession and dealing penalties could be added to a proposed overhaul of Indiana's criminal sentencing laws by legislators after Gov. Mike Pence questioned whether the plan was strict enough on low-level drug offenders.One proposed change expected to be voted on Thursday would make possession of between about one-third of an ounce and 10 pounds of marijuana the lowest-level felony rather than the highest-level misdemeanor.
Why would this Republican governor suggest policies designed mostly for the destruction of communities and budgets alike? Mostly because he and others are politically aligned with the very prison companies that run the show.
