U.S. Marijuana Party

High Everyone,

Thought I would get busy on my page and tell you a little about myself.

I am one in 100,000 people with a rare spinal cord glioma that can benefit from marijuana medicinally. My tumors were discovered in 1994 and I began researching for treatment as my tumor is inside the spinal cord and inoperable.

I have found medical research that suggests marijuana helps reduce these types of gliomas and I can tell you from my own experience, marijuana has helped.

I feel it is a crime for the federal or any other government to keep me from a life saving medicine. This is only one of the reasons I began my activism with marijuana.

I have witnessed too many good people be locked up, abused, families torn apart, jobs lost, properties seized , for possessing small amounts of marijuana. The law makers and the DEA, judges, law enforcement, Prisons, attorneys have become parasites that are sucking the lifes' blood from our society.

Meanwhile, illegal immigrants can cross our borders with 600 lbs. or less of marijuana and are not prosecuted. The very system, hard working, tax paying citizens are paying into, is being used against them and their families, to rob them and extort them for more money,via taxes, tickets & fines, through a corrupt, dysfunctional, government system.

Millions of dollars are spent every year on dis-information and false advertisement to demonize marijuana and those who possess and grow it. There should be a class action law suit, for all the people who have been injured, slandered, lost their jobs, had their properties seized, been killed,and have been psychologically damaged by these cruel and unjust laws.

We can no longer ignore the damage anti-marijuana laws have done to our society, our economy, and ourselves any longer. I truely believe, we have reached the final turning point.
