Federally Sponsored Marijuana Study Backfires: Scientists Conclude DEA Should Reclassify Cannabis

Posted July 15th, 2013 by Monterey Bud & filed under marijuana research, marijuana studies, medical marijuana news, Videos.
For decades, misinformation has been puked up by the DEA and regurgitated as fact by America’s lame stream media. Claiming that medical marijuana is a hoax, a scam, a swindle of the worst sort– perpetrated on America’s oblivious citizens. Many knowledgeable Americans have been laughing at the federal government’s claim, seeing the medicinal value of cannabis. So, naturally, the feds took action, seeking to prove their point – that marijuana had no medicinal value. Yet the scientific evidence didn’t pan out the way they had hoped.
Oh how “the best laid plans of mice and men often go astray.”
A recent study of medical marijuana sponsored by the feds and conducted at the University of California Center for medical cannabis, was originally designed to disprove that cannabis had any medicinal value. However, quite to the contrary, the CMCR discovered that medicinal marijuana indeed has a legitimate medical application. From relieving chronic pain to helping AIDS / HIV wasting syndrome, marijuana’s active cannabinoids were found to be of sufficient value to warrant the reclassification of the cannabis plant. Primarily as a means of facilitating greater research, understanding of the active compounds in cannabis. The July 2013 study was recently published in the Open Neurology Journal.
Similar to a small child who has not gotten their way – the federal government has been obstinate in its refusal to recognize cannabinoids for their medicinal value – fitful, angry, and living in denial, the federal government’s reign of willful ignorance may soon end.
To the great credit of the researchers who conducted the study, they concluded that the Drug Enforcement Administration’s classification of marijuana as a schedule 1 substance within the controlled substance act is “not accurate”… as well as “not tenable.”
As most are aware, president BHO (Barack Hussein Obama) could easily hand down marching orders to US Atty. Gen. Holder, instructing him to request the DEA to immediately reclassify marijuana within the CSA, allowing more scientific trials on marijuana’s cannabinoids by universities around the country. With regards to herbs… the food and drug administration is little more than a neutered puppy – provided the herb has not been categorized, and demonized by being labeled as a narcotic by the DEA.
Should the DEA have an epiphany, and remove marijuana from the CSA drug schedules, our FDA would be powerless to regulate marijuana.

Don't forget this was the president who did inhale and said using federal resources to persecute medical pot users and their caretakers was not a good use of those resources.

You don't design a study to prove or disprove something. I'm sure the journalist just wrote that to make a better story.

President BHO 
the feds want the tax dollars from legal marijuana and they know it.
I'm sure they already knew what the outcome of the study would be.
they're greedy, not stupid.

It is a very one sided article. Still, it is completely accurate. 
And actually, knowing the U.S. govt, it probably was designed to disprove any percieved truth of medical marijuana.
Unless their plan is to legalize marijuana, then this would be a great way to go about it and "save face".
"Oh, I see, this study says we were wrong. We never knew. Sorry about all the jailing and shit breh."

One of these days, those numbskulls in Washington are going to admit that marijuana isn't the killer weed they heard about when they were younger.

I find it hard to believe that a University of California for Medical Cannibas is non biased.

Yeah how did the DEA let that happen? Why not like, harvard or something.
The whole thing is probably a set up to save some face, like I said.

don't forget this was the president who lied through his teeth when he said he would not go after MMJ and ended up having more MMJ raids than Bush Rat, and the president who started giving south american countries shit when they started trying to go a different direction.
