for you attorneys out there is this not unconstitutional? First what we are talking about: Cannabis – a safe and non-toxic substance. Proof – inside our bodies is an endocannbinoid system see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endocannabinoid_system The cannabinoids, there are approximately 66 in cannabis, are compatible with this system which acts like a feedback system to the bodies functions. This makes it one of the safest substances for humans that exist. This is not a CNS drug like morphine or heroin which can kill. There have been 2 publically funded studies on cannabis the LaGuardia report in 1937 and the Shafer report in 1972 both of which found cannabis to be safe. They can be read at medicalmarijuana.procon.org/sourcefiles/laguardia.pdf and druglibrary.org/schaffer/library/studies/nc/ncmenu.htm In 1988 the DEA was sued for not rescheduling Cannabis DEA Judge Andrew Young ruled that cannabis was safe and it would be arbitrary and capricious for the DEA to withhold Cannabis from the public and the director of the DEA overrode his decision and kept Cannabis in Schedule 1. His ruling can be found here - druglibrary.org/schaffer/library/studies/young/index.html. In 1999 the US Government in the role as the Department of Health and Human Services obtained US Patent US6630507 Cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants clearly showing a medical use. They upheld their mandate and asked DEA to reschedule Cannabis out of Schedule 1, DEA asked the FDA if Cannabis had a medical use and FDA said no it stayed in Schedule 1. In 2007 Administrative dea juge Mary Ellen Bittner rules that nida had a monopoly that was not in the best interest of the people https://aclu.org/files/images/asset_upload_file116_28341.pdf We are now in 2014 and there are 23 states with medical marijuana laws all of which require a Physician to certify that cannabis can be used, indicating that there are lots of Doctors who believe there is a medical use for Cannabis. This should show that there is enough evidence that Cannabis has a medical use and therefor does not belong in Schedule 1 which in part says a substance in Schedule 1 has no medical use. Clearly something is broken in the executive branch in general and the Department of Justice in particular. So now let’s look at the whole position of the executive branch in particular the Office of National Drug Control Policy which on the white house web site says in part “Relying on Science, research and public health and safety”. It says that but that is not what the evidence shows. Let’s look at little further and when we do we find According to Title VII Office of National Drug Control Policy Reauthorization Act of 1998: H11225: Responsibilities. –The Director– [...] (12) shall ensure that no Federal funds appropriated to the Office of National Drug Control Policy shall be expended for any study or contract relating to the legalization (for a medical use or any other use) of a substance listed in schedule I of section 202 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 812) and take such actions as necessary to oppose any attempt to legalize the use of a substance (in any form) that– A. is listed in schedule I of section 202 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 812); and B. has not been approved for use for medical purposes by the Food and Drug Administration; So by LAW the Drug Czar cannot allow Cannabis to get out of schedule 1. Since this is occurring thru the Department of Justice what we see happening in Florida, that the Sheriffs of Florida are using fear and exaggeration to try and defeat Amendment 2, these are the same “claims” made in 1937 and were called yellow journalism. This results in Florida being one of the top incarceration states with 57,951 in 2010 making Florida the 3rd state in terms of arrests for position of marijuana that is a lot of Floridians being made criminals because of what I consider an illegal law it is also a lot of resources needed to arrest, try and incarcerate users of Cannabis just because someone said so. What I have done so far.. Aside from researching, I have forwarded the evidence that the DEA, FDA, NIDA and HHS are acting in a manner not consistent with their stated goals and is NOT based in Science or Fact to the president of the United States figuring that since all of these departments are under the executive branch, and asked him to fix the broken government. When I did not hear from him I asked him for permission to sue him and again I have heard nothing. I have argued with the FSA in the Form of No2Pot and No on 2 and whenever I post fact they remove the post and ban me from posting. Our government which I see as acting like bully and making criminals out of our citizens just because someone said so, and blacks are arrested at four times the rate of whites. aclu.org/criminal-law-reform/war-marijuana-black-and-white-report.
