Hemp oil crusade
http://www.phoenixtears.ca
His hemp oil crusade to help cure cancer and many other conditions is to be applauded. I wish I knew about him and hemp oil a few years ago when my uncle was fighting for his life against lung cancer...a fight he ended up losing, despite trying everything convential medicine had. Watch the videos at Youtube or download it from Torrentbox. http://www.torrentbox.com/torrents-s...it=TBox+Search Give the man a medal!

read this the other day.
I'll save my BIG soapbox for another occasion, except to say kudos for the man trying. Stupidity of the drug war, at least at it applies to pot, simply amazes me. I've fought the establishment for most of my life, to get it to folks at the lowest possibile price. You want to outlaw a REAL hazard, outlaw alcohol, leave pot alone. I won't reply to naysayers, I learned to ignore them in my teens. http://cannabisculture.com/articles/5159.html btw, this isn't to say whether it works or not... Look at the diet pill industry and all the other snake oil crap out there. A man SHOULD NOT be criminalized for growing/using/selling pot. Period. Go read my post to fix your computer JuK-u-lator be constructive today

Has anyone suggested that you might be too gullible, Mike? "If something sounds too good to be true that's because it isn't true."

A "gullible" move by one of the biggest doc groups in the nation? This article above is a stunning development. They know the drug has benefits, even more than those listed, but they are being restricted by insane politics. The only thing Simpson has done is taken matter into his own hands, and developed the goods and giving it to the people who need it so desperately. To label this guy a drug dealer, as some have, is beyond the pale.

One concept that seems lacking amidst all the personal testimonials, clinical trials. I'll add reading the article to having watched part of the video.
OK, the article admits hemp oil effective for a few minor medical conditions - most of which were already known of by many - but says nothing supporting Simpson's claims for the plethora of efficacies including that against cancer - and the 1/7th of the video I watched (on youtube - they break it up that way) reeks of charlatanism..
