interbent.com — Marijuana legalization has been a hot topic since it’s criminalization in 1915. As debate rages many Americans remain in the dark as to the physical and societal affects of Marijuana use. When taken logically there are many significant reasons why the de-criminalization and legalization of Marijuana is a good idea.

This is Digg and this top 10 had to happen...... 11 - 10,000 acres of hemp would trump 1 million acres of Forrest for cellulose.8 guys could cut hemp 4 times a year and replace the need to cultivate forests and habitat. Governments are stupid..

"There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos, and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz, and swing, result from marijuana use. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers, and any others.""Reefer makes darkies think they're as good as white men.""...the primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races."Thank the lovely Harry J. Anslinger.Oh I almost forgot these two which are frankly insane:"Colored students at the Univ. of Minn. partying with (white) female students, smoking [marijuana] and getting their sympathy with stories of racial persecution. Result: pregnancy""Two Negros took a girl fourteen years old and kept her for two days under the influence of hemp. Upon recovery she was found to be suffering from syphilis." <- Lol?

LoL if you want to trace the start of why MJ has been persecuted on so much look at the history of "the War on poverty"to shorten this up ill give you the cliff notes.1. america adopts a bill dubbed "the war on poverty" this bill is widely known as a scham a way to arrest the poor and put them in prison, where they were cheaper to care for, and of course protect the working man from the oh so dangerous hobo's.2. After 30 years of failing to make any real progress and vast overcrowding of prison populations the courts decided the bill was unconstitutional and that a man can not be jailed for his debt.3. a poorly written and very missleading bill is introduced to replace the war on poverty. Dubbed the war on drugs this bill asked for large sums of money to be used to enforce the illegal transportation of foreign and domestic drugs. this bill called for the scheduleing of drugs into different categories to establish harsh rules against those deamed the worse drugs.4. MJ was scheduled in the 2nd class of addictive substances, the class reserved for those drugs that cause you to halucinate, mostly because it was the cheapest drug (and to this day still is) with the most propaganda against it. 5. armed with the ability to create agencies to enforce these policies a senat sub commitee creates the DEA which takes over the war on poverty by arresting the main base of MJ users the poor. basically MJ is illegal because its to cheap, if it had been more expensive to grow and harder to prepare like tobacco the big companies could make a profit off of it and the law would have been set in a way like it is with tobacco where due to regulations the only ones who can afford to grow it properly are the goverment and the large corporations who fund them.
