PLEASE WATCH!!!!
Harvard Law School Lecturer, Rebecca Richman Cohen deserves HUGE applause for the following video and her bold film Code of the West.
In the attached clip Rebecca tells the story of an industrial medical marijuana grower Chris Williams who was growing cannabis in accordance with Montana state law. He is currently in jail and faces a minimum penalty of 80 years. Does that seem right to you?
This story is so disturbing that I struggle not to cry for this man, his son and his community. Our national drug policy has failed America miserably. The human consequences have been devastating. What is it going to take to change federal marijuana laws? Obviously state medical marijuana laws provide no security to people who are abiding by their state laws when those laws are in conflict with the federal government. The only solution here is a change in our national drug policy.
The science of cannabis clearly debunks the argument that marijuana has no known medical use.
Please take a moment to write your legislators today not only to urge their support for an immediate change in the federal laws governing marijuana but also to help educate them about the efficacy of marijuana as a safe and versatile medicine.
