Petition to legalize hemp, a product Thomas Jefferson said all US citizens should grow. The goal of this petition is to remove ALL restrictions on growing hemp, a totally harmless plant.
Why is this important?
Petition to legalize hemp. Can anyone name one other, totally harmless product, that is illegal? Hemp grows faster than and can replace corn, is a great food source (a complet protein), and can be used for paper, clothing, oil, building materials, etc. Hemp can reduce greenhouse emmissions. It is totally harmless - one cannot get 'high' from hemp. If DEA agents cannot distinguis hemp from marijuana, the issue lies with the agents. Again, and this is a challenge, can anyone name another totally harmless product that is illegal? Our Declaration of Independence was written on hemp paper. Ironic?
