The whole reason we have cannabis prohibition now is because of the scare tactics of a few and the power of the press. Remember that if Anslinger had not had Hearst telling his lies back in the 30's he probably would not have succeeded in getting it made illegal. My wife and I still get emails from one of our federal legislators that parrot the whole "Drugs are bad, marijuana is a gateway drug" line of BS that has been going around for 70+ years. I know that when he comes up for election next time I will certainly try to get everyone in my area to vote for someone else. Hopefully there will be someone else to vote for.
