US Government Proves that Marijuana Prevents Cancer... on Accident


BreakTheMatrix.Com had a great article Titled, "Top 10 Cannabis Studies the Government Wished it had Never funded"... It was a killer article. I don't now if they put it together or got it from somewhere else, but its a good one. I am re-posting 4 of the Top 10...

5) OOPS, MARIJUANA MAY PREVENT CANCER (PART I): Federal researchers implanted several types of cancer, including leukemia and lung cancers, in mice, then treated them with cannabinoids (unique, active components found in marijuana). THC and other cannabinoids shrank tumors and increased the mice’s lifespans. Munson, AE et al. Antineoplastic Activity of Cannabinoids. Journal of the National Cancer Institute. Sept. 1975. p. 597-602.

4) OOPS, MARIJUANA MAY PREVENT CANCER, (PART II): In a 1994 study the government tried to suppress, federal researchers gave mice and rats massive doses of THC, looking for cancers or other signs of toxicity. The rodents given THC lived longer and had fewer cancers, “in a dose-dependent manner” (i.e. the more THC they got, the fewer tumors). NTP Technical Report On The Toxicology And Carcinogenesis Studies Of 1-Trans- Delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol, CAS No. 1972-08-3, In F344/N Rats And B6C3F Mice, Gavage Studies. See also, “Medical Marijuana: Unpublished Federal Study Found THC-Treated Rats Lived Longer, Had Less Cancer,” AIDS Treatment News no. 263, Jan. 17, 1997.

3) OOPS, MARIJUANA MAY PREVENT CANCER (PART III): Researchers at the Kaiser-Permanente HMO, funded by NIDA, followed 65,000 patients for nearly a decade, comparing cancer rates among non-smokers, tobacco smokers, and marijuana smokers. Tobacco smokers had massively higher rates of lung cancer and other cancers. Marijuana smokers who didn’t also use tobacco had no increase in risk of tobacco-related cancers or of cancer risk overall. In fact their rates of lung and most other cancers were slightly lower than non-smokers, though the difference did not reach statistical significance. Sidney, S. et al. Marijuana Use and Cancer Incidence (California, United States). Cancer Causes and Control. Vol. 8. Sept. 1997, p. 722-728.

2) OOPS, MARIJUANA MAY PREVENT CANCER (PART IV): Donald Tashkin, a UCLA researcher whose work is funded by NIDA, did a case-control study comparing 1,200 patients with lung, head and neck cancers to a matched group with no cancer. Even the heaviest marijuana smokers had no increased risk of cancer, and had somewhat lower cancer risk than non-smokers (tobacco smokers had a 20-fold increased lung cancer risk). Tashkin D. Marijuana Use and Lung Cancer: Results of a Case-Control Study. American Thoracic Society International Conference. May 23, 2006.

Oldest Marijuana Stash Ever Discovered

The oldest marijuana stash in the world was discovered in a Chinese tomb. 2 Pounds of dried marijuana was found packed in to a large bowl. 

When discovered, the bowl was still carefully placed next to the body of a 45 year old, blue eyed Shaman. A Blue Eyed Shaman in the Gobi Desert who died 2,700 years ago had his bowl of weed and a few other objects, like a harp, ready to use in the afterlife... I too would like to make sure I have some weed when I first get to heaven. After awhile you'll meetup with old or new friends who will have their own hooks and what not, but I'd like to have a big ass, 2 pound bowl of cannabis waiting for me after passing. I need to smoke after a plane trip, I'll definitely need a smoke after I die.

At first the researchers thought the bowl of herb was Coriander. But the herb tested true for THC and the Blue Eyed, 2,700 year old Shaman was looking pretty cool, even though he was dead as fuck.

It took 10 months to get the discovery to London where they could properly analyze the pot... oh yeah, and all the other stuff too... Carbon Dating and Genetic Tests were performed and documented. The 2 pound bowl of marijuana was all bud, no stem, not much anyway, all psychoactive is the point. This is pointed out for anyone who would like to say he was probably only using the marijuana to make clothes and shit.

Connecticut Governor Says Its Time to Legalize Marijuana

Connecticut Governor Says Its Time to Legalize IT

Last week, Connecticut governor Dannel Malloy said, “Let’s accept reality”. The Governor wants to do what the good Governator just did for Californians, that is change possession of anything less than an ounce of weed to an infraction, instead of a crime.... or decriminalization. The Governor believes that the existing laws are somewhat racist, with major flaws in enforcing the immoral laws.

The public hearing on Legalizing Marijuana in Connecticut will be held tomorrow (Monday, March 14, 2011). Good luck to our friends in Connecticut.

81 percent of Pennsylvania wants Legal Marijuana

81 percent of Pennsylvania wants Legal Medical Marijuana, (Google It) but both Democrat and Republican candidates for Governor oppose it. When legalization is more popular than either candidate, maybe it's time for a smart politician to change their mind.
