It’s Illegal But The Government Has A Patent On It

Just a few articles related to the subject of the medicinal and industrial value of Hemp … which the government has classified as “illegal” for the benefit of Big Pharma and other industries which you will see at the links provided.  Spread this message. There is no reason for the government to keep this wonderful natural substance from a “free” people. I am a staunch advocate of “local” activism and suggest that State activism will lead to liberating Hemp from the claws of the federal machine such as has been done in California, Colorado, Wyoming, Oregon, etc. Not only will those suffering from disease gain a cure for their ailments but the States will also see great benefit in new industries which will supply much needed jobs as well as tax revenue.

They say marijuana is dangerous. Pot is not harmful to the human body or mind. Marijuana does not pose a threat to the general public. Marijuana is very much a danger to the oil companies, alcohol, tobacco industries and a large number of chemical corporations. Big businesses, with plenty of dollars and influence, have suppressed the truth from the people. The truth is, if marijuana was utilized for its vast array of commercial products, it would create an industrial atomic bomb! The super rich have conspired to spread misinformation about the plant that, if used properly, would ruin their companies.   http://www.lewrockwell.com/spl2/reason-hemp-is-illegal.html

The ominous part is that this isn’t the first time scientists have discovered that THC shrinks tumors. In 1974 researchers at the Medical College of Virginia, who had been funded by the National Institute of Health to find evidence that marijuana damages the immune system, found instead that THC slowed the growth of three kinds of cancer in mice — lung and breast cancer, and a virus-induced leukemia.

The DEA quickly shut down the Virginia study and all further cannabis/tumor research, according to Jack Herer, who reports on the events in his book, “The Emperor Wears No Clothes.” In 1976 President Gerald Ford put an end to all public cannabis research and granted exclusive research rights to major pharmaceutical companies, who set out — unsuccessfully — to develop synthetic forms of THC that would deliver all the medical benefits without the “high.”  http://patients4medicalmarijuana.wordpress.com/2010/01/04/marijuana-cures-cancer-us-government-has-known-since-1974/

On the one hand, United States federal government officials have consistently denied that marijuana has any medical benefits. On the other, the government actually holds patents for the medical use of the plant.

Just check out US Patent 6630507 titled “Cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants” which is assigned to The United States of America, as represented by the Department of Health and Human Services.
The patent claims that –

“Cannabinoids have been found to have antioxidant properties, unrelated to NMDA receptor antagonism. This new found property makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and HIV dementia.”

The patent was obtained in October of 2003.  http://patients4medicalmarijuana.wordpress.com/medical-use-of-cannabis-video/the-government-holds-a-patent-for-medical-marijuana/

See the patent HERE.

In the federal system, marijuana is classified as a controlled substance, categorized as having a high potential for abuse and no currently accepted medical use, together with drugs like heroin, LSD and ecstasy.

The court noted that the DEA denied the petition after the Department of Health and Human Services gave the DEA its evaluation that marijuana lacks a currently accepted medical use in the United States.  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/22/marijuana-class-i_n_2528323.html

The first thing to realize is cannabinoids are the real deal. it is not a scam designed by a bunch of pot heads, though the federal government and Big Pharma hope you continue to think so.. The federal government has known cannabinoids cured cancer since 1974 when it funded program at university of Virginia to prove pot had a negative effect on the immune system.Their final report showed pot had no negative effect on immune system and killed cancer cells in a petri dish and in mice. our wonderful federal government immediately defunded the program…and now now hold a patent on cannabinoids.  http://www.myelomabeacon.com/forum/medical-cannabis-treatments-t171-20.html

  1. I wonder if the government thinks allowing the medical use of marijuana will increase the recreational use of it. I’m beginning to hear more stories about how medical marijuana helped chronically ill people more than other medicines. I’m interested to see what happens in the future. Thanks for sharing.
