Hand in the Cookie Jar PDF Print E-mail

Hi, I'm Mikeee, a medical cannabis user from Ohio.

OK, so here's the scenario. You have a cookie jar in your kitchen. You put 10 cookies in it every day. You eat 2 of these at each of 3 meals leaving 4 for later, yet all of the cookies are gone whenever you go to get a snack. You have a roommate that denies taking the cookies, so the next time you put in the cookies, you take certain precautions. You set up a hidden camera, buy a fingerprint kit, get a bloodhound, and cover the cookie jar with an invisible chemical that will get on whoever is taking the cookies and show up under special light. Now you wait, until the next time you go get a snack and the cookies are once again gone. You check the camera and it shows your roommate taking the cookies. The bloodhound leads you to the roommate, the special light shows the special chemical you used on his hands, and you can see cookie crumbs around his mouth. You lift his fingerprints off of the cookie jar, pump his stomach, and have it analyzed. It shows that the contents of his stomach is cookies. Is this enough proof to refute the roommate's denials?

99.9% of you would say "Yes, there is enough proof. The roommate took the cookies." The 0.1% of you that feel this is not proof enough are on the ruling board of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA would be convinced that the dog was bribed to eat the cookies, plant the crumbs and the chemicals on the roommate, fabricate the film record, and lead you to the roommate to steer attention away from himself. This is the same reasoning that they used to determine that cannabis has no medical value whatsoever. Even when faced with hundreds of studies performed by some of the most eminent names in sciece and medicine, the FDA still thinks the dog was bribed. Perhaps it is the FDA that has been bribed. Bribed by big medicine with cash and stocks, bribed by legislators with promises of power, bribed by their own puny greed and ignorance, trying to become big fish when they are but minnows. Ask the FDA to show the credentials and reasoning to come to this conclusion, and you get stale rhetoric in response, "Marijuana causes cancer, marijuana is addictive, marijuana is a gateway drug, marijuana shot J.R." even though each of these claims have been proven to be false. It all means the same thing. Lip service and absolutely no facts to back their ruling, yet the ill and dying in 11 states know the truth. The war on Medical cannabis is a failure, and the members of the ruling board of the FDA are for sale to the highest bidder.

Let your state and federal government representatives know that you will not be lied to about this important issue. Demand the removal of the current FDA board and replace them with REAL doctors and scientists. These politicians masquerading as physicians and researchers should not be allowed to continue the criminal activities that they perpetrate on the American people. Fraud is the operative phrase, Fraudulent decisions by Fraudulent administrators. How many people have to suffer and die?

Please support the Ohio Patient Network, They care about you.
