    Patent No. 6630507, held by the United States Department of Health and Human Services, covers the use of cannabinoids for treating a wide range of diseases.

    It's illegal according to Federal laws. No other argument is necessary.

    I'm 33 years old. 7 years ago for no apparent reason I was diagnosed with liver Failure. It was devastating. I have 3 kids to raise. I ended up with also jaundice, and ended up anemic. After 1&1/2 years of dialysis. I came to marijuana. I only smoke when needed. It's always at evening time. People die off alcohol, prescription pills, antihistamines, and what's the worst weed can do. Make you forget?? That's what it's intended for. Forget your Pain. Stress.Depression.Anxiety. Helps increase appetite. Strenghtens your metabolism..etc. So yes. I agree to recreational use.

    The taxes alone would fix our education system funding and allow excess monies from the taxes to go to other programs, if you need more proof look at Washington state where they had to stop collecting taxes on marijuana because soooooooo many people were buying it that the state collected more then the law allowed. Marijuana is green gold. The only folks that are against it are older senior citizens who the govt already brain washed with propaganda against. It's well known that marijuana was put in prohibition because the paper industry was threatened by a better cheaper product. The only reason marijuana hasn't been legalized is bc law enforcement lacks the proper enforcement of driving while under the influence, but yet Australia uses eucalyptus paper which shows the presence of marijuana through leaving oil on the forehead. Our elected officials have failed us in many aspects, one being this and look at the many people incarcerated bc of marijuana.

    Darn, it cut off part, and wont let me edit... This is the 3rd part of the msg below which explains 'The Law'...
    ...And I will MAKE them dismiss this case, remove the bench warrant, AND pay me for my trouble, remove from office those who will not or can not defend the Constitution correctly (I've removed a prison guard from office with my first handwritten criminal complaint as an inmate, for another inmate, right before my first bar complaint, which got another inmates lawyer on 'diversion classes'!. I saw the Bar Letter, and spoke to the First Lieutenant to know this).

    AND I AM SHOWING EVERYONE HOW TO DO ALL OF THIS FOR FREE!

    ALL OF THIS IS HAPPENING BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW THESE "FundamentalPrinciples" and how to 'GovernPublicServants' with 'AdministrativeRemedies' like 'PresumptiveLetters', which is why I made Facebook pages by those names, and one for the 'LawDocs' where I give out all the citations of law I have used to win my cases and change how local police act (They dont bother beggars on highway exists anymore)...
    And now I am working on making them pay me for it, and showing everyone how to do that too (And I am doing this on purpose as a poor homeless person, to PROVE you DO NOT need 'Money' or 'Lawyers' for this, only these few pages of Law Citations, and comprehension of these FundamentalPrinciples:
    Purpose of govt,
    3 elements for a crime,
    elements of due process ('notice and opportunity to defend' Simon v. Craft)
    Meaning of colorable law and color of law abuse (An unconstitutional act is not a law, everything which forces obedience is inherently OPPOSITE of the purpose of the constitution, and therefore is "Treason to the Constitution", Cohens v. Virginia, US S. Ct, which carries a DEATH penalty per 18usc2381 !!!).

    FOR GODS SAKE PEOPLE, STOP ACTING LIKE SLAVES AND OBEYING YOUR OWN HIRED SERVANTS, GOVERN THEM!
    I have. They keep having to dismiss every time they get their hands on me, and I have refused to obey any court orders or pay restitution for throwing a cops taser in the road, and when they tried to jail me for that, they made my probation officer commit felony 4 fraud on the court and perjury....fortunately for HER, I was forgiving!!!!

    I explained the law to her, and how she had BETTER not EVER take actions like that against me again (the arrest warrant her super had her submit to the judge who is also liable, more than the rest actually, under 18usc242 and 42usc1983 and 1986, probably 1988 too), without first calling me and giving me a chance to cure. She was in communication with me by email, so there was no excuse.
    Shes a nice person though, but I could have her convicted for two felony 4s, WITH HER OWN EVIDENCE! (The 'Discovery Packet', her evidence, is all I need to prove this).

    THATS HOW TO 'GovernPublicServants', #LIKEaBOSS, and #LIKEaSOVEREIGN.

    NOW WATCH WHATS NEXT... Making them pay me, and dealing with a current bench warrant, because I refused to attend a sentencing, for a misdemeanor case, where my appeal was denied, because the mail was returned by the post person, although SOME of my mail was received from the same court (REALLY Suspicious. I think they sent it to the wrong name. It MUST be their fault I figure. Working on it now)....
    So I missed a notice to RE-Do my memorandum of law (It had been handwritten from jail, back before I learned the rules for release. That was an AWESOME day btw. They were holding me with no bail. 15mins later, released on 'own recognizance'! And the public defenders keep telling me these things wont work! There is a LOT more too.)...
    Which is why they denied my appeal...

    So now I am about to start serving these judges, cops, prosecutors, police chief, mayor, governor, and federal courts, as well as state and federal congress people, notices of claim (Including 'failure to prevent' at least, when they reasonable have the ability to, under 42usc1986)...
    Filing criminal complaints with the federal courts, including Treason against the constitution for forcing obedience, aka 'Slavery' (I am being sentenced only for disobeying a cops order to not be on a sidewalk at a highway exist begging, which I made them stop even bothering people for last June, 2015. I've been checking. They drive right by now! In Phoenix and Tempe Az!).

    And I will MAKE them dismiss this case, remove the bench warrant, AND pay me for my trouble, remove from office those who will not or can not defend the Constitution correctly (I've removed a prison guard from office with my first handwritten criminal complaint as an inmate, for another inmate, right before my first

    WAKE UP-FORCING OBEDIENCE IS SLAVERY-NO THREAT OR HARM MEANS NO CRIME OR JURISDICTION...
    WAKE UP PEOPLE! THERE IS NO QUESTION HERE, REGULATION OF MARIJUANA IS CRIMINAL...
    It is criminal to infringe on the free will of any human outside of reasonable defense of ones self or others, which means without evidence of actual threat or harm, its impossible for evidence of a crime to give 'probable cause' to infringe on the freedom or even privacy of any Human against their will. 'any Thing...to the Contrary [is] notwithstanding', but is 'color of law abuse', and "No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." usconstitution.net/const.html
    facebook.com/groups/GovernPublicServants/
    Let me explain "the Law" to you (I've won many cases and amazed lawyers and changed local police behavior btw, so I know what I'm talking about better than most people who've ever lived, watch)...

    EVERYTHING our hired public servants do to force obedience without evidence of some Human who has been threatened or harmed against their will, (Not counting reasonable defense of ones self or others, or consensual acts like boxing, obviously), is unconstitutional, unlawful, 'color of law abuse', dishonor of oath, and other criminal and civil offenses.
    Here I will give SOME of the Citations of Law in the 'LawDocs' I have made (To give away for free, 5 YEARS of work, btw!), which have allowed me to put my servants to shame in court (But I'm nice to them, because I understand they were taught this idiocy)...

    The ONLY 'purpose of government' is 'to protect and maintain individual rights.' (Az Cont., Art.2,Sec.2), 'to...provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity...' (US Const., Preamble).
    And the US and State Supreme Courts have made CLEAR the requirements for jurisdiction over a human beings free will in a criminal court, according to due process of law...
    There are 'three elements to a crime':
    1) Corpus Delicti: evidence of some threat or harm caused to a person against their will, AND ...
    2) Mens Rea: it must have been caused by the intent or inexcusable neglect of the suspect/defendant, which means acts of reasonable defense of ones self or others, and consensual acts like fighting are rights, not violations of any valid 'Law', AND...
    3) Actus Reus: Violation of a VALID criminal 'Law', BUT...
    "An unconstitutional act is not a law....it is...as inoperative as though it had never been passed." (Norton v. Shelby, US S.Ct).
    And 'any Thing...to the Contrary [is] notwithstanding.' (Art.6, US Const.)
    Since the purpose of govt. is ONLY to protect equal individual Human freedom and free will, and there MUST be evidence you have MORE LIKELY THAN NOT (Probable cause) threatened or harmed another human against their will, not in defense of your self or others.

    ALL OTHER ENFORCEMENT IS SIMPLY FORCING OBEDIENCE, TO YOUR OWN HIRED SERVANTS!
    THATS THE F'ING DEFINITION OF SLAVERY FOR GODS SAKE!
    THIS CANT POSSIBLY BE MORE OBVIOUS PEOPLE, STOP ALLOWING THIS 'COLOR OF LAW ABUSE' FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY!!!!!!

    The framers of the Constitution TOLD US THIS WOULD HAPPEN...
    All that is required for evil to win is for good people to do nothing.
    "every man must know the law to keep it." George Washington

    Read the Federalist Papers (Where they were figuring out the Constitution), and see how they predicted all of this!

    Would really love to know who the eight percent are who don't see that recreational use and leagaliation would benefit us in so many ways. People please snap out of your simple minded thing. Have a great day.

    The increasing number of Marijuana related hospitalizations? Yeah because alcohol related visits to the ER are far less. What the hell are these opponents to Marijuana thinking?!
