When a government lists plant life as one of the most dangerous substances, how can you trust that government? Canada, Holland and Israel governments all allow cannabis use for medical reasons, Israel is even contemplating selling the herb in pharmacies next year. And we still call America a world leader.... Leaders in suppressing our own people.
