GW Pharma was awarded a patent recently on cancer-killing cannabinoids. Nice that the federal government is acknowledging what many of us have known for some time now. Cannabis is an essential part of our pharmacopeia. But when you consider the arrests, trials and convictions of innocent medical cannabis users who are only following their state laws when trying to treat their conditions as well as save their lives, this is a slap in the face.<\/span>

<\/span>The focus by US Attorneys in medical cannabis states on raiding and closing down dispensaries, arresting dispensary owners as drug traffickers, seizing bank accounts, disallowing normal business expenses when filing IRS tax returns all speak to a measure of control that is insulting and abusive. So now a pharmaceutical company can make cancer drugs. Can our brothers and sisters in this movement come home now, with their records expunged? We know the truth now, don’t we?<\/span>

<\/span>What about Cash Hyde? He was receiving the medicine he needed until the state said no. Then, when he died from his cancer, the police treated his family like criminals that day. They apologized, but what they put that family through was shameful. Their precious boy had just died. That didn’t matter to any of them. What will the federal government say to that family?<\/span>

<\/span>As a patient, I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, any movement toward the truth is appreciated. But in this country where we can have a presidential candidate who believes that 47% of this country are freeloaders and received millions of votes for that idiotic belief, we have no clue what will happen as a result. Will Eric Holder say that they’re going to stop harassing all of us now? Will he say it because it’s the right thing to do or because of this new patent? Will they stand down for the sake of what’s right and true, or so that GW Pharma can generate big profits? I may sound like a conspiracy theorist, but honestly, what else is there? Big Pharma stands to make huge profits from cannabis, but they will screw it up. They’ll try to synthesize a plant that needs to be used in it’s entirety for the best results. And time will only tell what impact this will have on the medical cannabis community. <\/span>

<\/span>Well, if past is prologue as they say, we already know. <\/span>
