Patrick Kennedy, a self admitted oxycotin addict, can’t even use the correct terminology and call Cannabis what it is. Just by continuing to use the term “marijuana” he has exposed SAM’s intent to attempt to use the 80 year old stereotype, which has been broken by truth and a plethora of research, and demonize a very valuable plant. What I immediately ask is does he have a financial interest in pharmaceuticals, timber, petroleum, etc. that hemp and Cannabis may threaten?

In Denver on Wednesday January 9th, SAM, Smart Approaches to Marijuana is having a media event to try and beat the propaganda drums once again against G*d’s creation Cannabis. Please stand up, deny their fear mongering, and voice your opinion by coming to the event.  There is no obvious address, but keep your eyes and ears open and we can find it.
