It is however legal to import hemp into the USA. Such hypocrisy I say. It's time for politicians to get educated and do the right thing.
Currently thirty-two countries, including Canada, Great Britain, France and China, allow farmers to grow industrial hemp. Currently, hemp farming in the United States is not permitted unless you receive a permit from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. In 1999 both Minnesota and North Dakota passed legislation to allow farmers to grow industrial hemp. Hawaii passed legislation allowing for an initial research plot in December 1999. Please understand that if you do plant hemp in the U.S. without a permit, you may be subject to arrest. We encourage farmers and citizens to contact your respective state and federal representatives and ask them to change the U.S. current outmoded policy.
SHIFTING REGULATORY AUTHORITY: Currently, industrial hemp is classified as a Class I substance by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. NAIHC is advocating that the regulatory responsibility be shifted from U.S. DEA to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
WHAT IS INDUSTRIAL HEMP? Industrial hemp is a non-drug crop and contains less than 1% of the psychoactive substance THC. Unlike marijuana, if you smoke hemp, you get a headache, and if you smoke more, you get a bigger headache.
CANNABIS/HEMP WAS LEGAL,
WHY WAS IT BANNED?
For the first 162 years of America's existence, marijuana was totally legal and hemp was a common crop. But during the 1930s, the U.S. government and the media began spreading outrageous lies about marijuana, which led to its prohibition. Some headlines made about marijuana in the 1930s were: "Marijuana: The assassin of youth." "Marijuana: The devil's weed with roots in hell." "Marijuana makes fiends of boys in 30 days." "If the hideous monster Frankenstein came face to face with the monster marijuana, he would drop dead of fright." In 1936, the liquor industry funded the infamous movie titled Reefer Madness. This movie depicts a man going insane from smoking marijuana, and then killing his entire family with an ax. This campaign of lies, as well as other evidence, have led many to believe there may have been a hidden agenda behind Marijuana Prohibition.
Shortly before marijuana was banned by The Marijuana Tax Act of 1937, new technologies were developed that made hemp a potential competitor with the newly-founded synthetic fiber and plastics industries. Hemp's potential for producing paper also posed a threat to the timber industry (see New Billion-Dollar Crop). Evidence suggests that commercial interests having much to lose from hemp competition helped propagate reefer madness hysteria, and used their influence to lobby for Marijuana Prohibition. It is not known for certain if special interests conspired to destroy the hemp industry via Marijuana Prohibition, but enough evidence exists to raise the possibility.
After Alcohol Prohibition ended in 1933, funding for the Federal Bureau of Narcotics (now the Drug Enforcement Administration) was reduced. The FBN's own director, Harry J. Anslinger, then became a leading advocate of Marijuana Prohibition. In 1937 Anslinger testified before Congress in favor of Marijuana Prohibition by saying: "Marijuana is the most violence causing drug in the history of mankind." "Most marijuana smokers are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes." Marijuana Prohibition is founded on lies and rooted in racism, prejudice, and ignorance. Just as politicians believed Harry J. Anslinger to be a marijuana expert in 1937, many people still believe law enforcement officials are marijuana experts. In reality, law enforcement officials have no expert knowledge of marijuana's medical or health effects, but they do represent an industry that receives billions of tax dollars to enforce Marijuana Prohibition.
Before the government began promoting reefer madness hysteria during the 1930s, the word marijuana was a Mexican word that was totally absent from the American vocabulary. In the 1930s, Americans knew that hemp was a common, useful, and harmless crop. It is extremely unlikely anyone would have believed hemp was dangerous, or would have believed stories of hemp madness. Thus, the words marijuana and reefer were substituted for the word hemp in order to frighten the public into supporting Hemp Prohibition. Very few people realized that marijuana and hemp came from the same plant species; thus, virtually nobody knew that Marijuana Prohibition would destroy the hemp industry.
Bolstering the theory that marijuana was banned to destroy the hemp industry, two articles were written on the eve of Marijuana Prohibition that claim hemp was on the verge of becoming a super crop. These articles appeared in two well-respected magazines that are still published today. The articles are:
Flax and Hemp (Mechanical Engineering, Feb. 1937)
New Billion-Dollar Crop (Popular Mechanics, Feb. 1938)
This was the first time that billion dollar was used to describe the value of a crop. These articles praise the usefulness and potential of hemp by stating "hemp can be used to produce more than 25,000 products" and "hemp will prove, for both farmer and public, the most profitable and desirable crop that can be grown." Marijuana Prohibition took effect within one year after both these articles were written.

B.C. municipal leaders will vote Wednesday on a resolution that calls for the decriminalization of marijuana, with some experts saying a prohibition on pot is a failed policy that has cost millions of dollars in police, court, jail and social costs.
But a leading criminologist and two police officers — from Canada and the U.S. — argue lifting the prohibition will have little effect on reducing organized crime or the black market in marijuana.
Sgt. Dave Williams, an RCMP drug enforcement officer, noted B.C. pot is a highly sought-after “commodity,” especially across the U.S., where it is exported and traded for guns, or more potent drugs like cocaine, which are then brought to Canada.
The problem is so prolific, he said, that police officers, cannot take care of every marijuana growing complaint in B.C.
“We have the largest customer in North America directly across the line and that demand is going to keep the supply at a very high level,” Williams told delegates at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention Monday.
The issue, raised at the UBCM by the community of Metchosin, calls for the “appropriate government to decriminalize marijuana and research the regulation and taxation of marijuana.”
The resolution suggests that based on current police information, B.C. is responsible for 40 per cent of the marijuana produced in Canada. Between 80 and 95 per cent of pot produced in this country is exported illegally into the US.
Dr. Evan Wood, professor of medicine at the University of B.C., said the issue has become an “intractable problem” across the province. About $2.7 billion goes every year to organized crime, he said, and is used to buy other drugs and guns.
Geoff Plant, a lawyer and B.C.’s former attorney-general, agreed prohibition of marijuana has been a “disastrous failure of public policy,” noting 585,000 people in B.C. regularly use the drug. The situation has led to huge costs in enforcement, gang trials and courts.
Plant urged B.C. municipalities to work with others across Canada in calling for change at the federal level, while learning to work alongside folks south of the border, noting several states are considering legalizing marijuana and “the Americans are actually starting to get ahead of us.”
But Patrick Slack, commander of the Snohomish County Regional Drug and Gang Task Force in Washington state, said while he sees the Americans partnering with B.C. to stop the “scourge out there,” he’s not sure decriminalization and regulation is the answer.
“Anything government touches gets screwed up. It’s going to get taxed and if it gets taxed too high, what happens?” he said.
Darryl Plecas, a criminologist with the University of the Fraser Valley, agreed, noting gangs and violence are related to the production and export of marijuana, not possession. “We’re not talking about people smoking a few joints,” he said.
Plecas noted the list of harmful effects of marijuana is growing and “we should expect that list to grow even longer and the harms to be intensified,” while the costs won’t go away.
“We have more grow ops than most anywhere on the planet; it’s a multi-million business,” he said. “For those to say ‘I’m not going to grow [marijuana] any more because they made this change, that’s just dreaming.”
Williams agreed it’s possible but unlikely that organized crime will ever be eradicated, noting organized criminals are highly adaptable. When the City of Surrey undertook a novel approach, by having its electrical fire and safety teams initiate inspections, large-scale marijuana producers were forced to move out of their jurisdiction.
Some of these went to Langley, while others went to rural B.C. where organized crime increased capacity with large-scale barns and diesel generation.
But Const. Dave Bratzer, a Victoria police officer, insisted regulation can work. “You never see Molson Canadian and Coors start shooting at each other across the street. They get their lawyers to sort it out,” he said.

VICTORIA - Former British Columbia attorney general Geoff Plant urged mayors and councillors Monday to take a stand and push to change federal marijuana laws to fight drug wars and gang crimes in their communities.
Plant's challenge came during a debate on marijuana decriminalization in a packed conference hall on the opening day of the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention, attended by the majority of the province's municipal politicians.
"You all govern and live with the consequences of this disastrous and expensive failure of public policy, and it's entirely appropriate for you to take a stand on behalf of the citizens of the communities you represent for change," he said.
The UBCM is set to vote Wednesday on a resolution calling for the decriminalization of marijuana.
The motion calls for the support of the UBCM, saying marijuana prohibition is a failed policy that has resulted in millions in police, court, social and jail costs.
It states that the decriminalization and regulation of marijuana would provide the province with tax revenues and calls on government to study the regulation and taxation of marijuana.
Dr. Evan Wood, co-founder of Stop the Violence BC, which supports marijuana decriminalization to fight crime, said the municipal leaders should step into the debate because even though marijuana laws are federal jurisdiction, their impacts are felt in communities.
The noted HIV/AIDS expert said drug gangs are killing people and municipalities have the power to lead the way towards decriminalizing pot.
"Is this something we should be talking about at the UBCM?" he told the 200 people attending the debate. "People are getting shot in our municipalities. The grow-ops are in our municipalities. We're just not seeing leadership on a federal level right now, and I think this is a perfect place to be having this debate."
But University of the Fraser Valley criminologist Darryl Plecas said the municipal leaders should work on reducing marijuana use because more studies are revealing that smoking pot is harmful to young brain development and to regular users.
He caused a roar of laughter among the audience of more than 200 when he said: "Smoking marijuana is stupid and you become stupider."
One of B.C.'s top RCMP drug enforcement officers, Sgt. Dave Williams, said the current drug laws are not as effective as the Mounties would like, but the police will continue to enforce those laws.
Williams said he believes organized crime will still attempt to control the marijuana market in B.C. even if pot is decriminalized. He said marijuana is too valuable for organized crime, especially with a huge market next-door in the United States.
Salmon Arm councillor Ken Jamieson said he believes UBCM members support the resolution calling for marijuana decriminalization.
"I think the politicians are a step behind here," he said.
"I think we are a little bit behind the public on the thinking here and we better catch up."

Good point
Guess I might as well wipe my a@@ with what's left of my shares. Gonna flush them asap
Now that's more like it. Good solid information. Great post look forward to your follow up. Go MJNA
Oh boy, away all day and come back to see some new bashers take up Mr. Green's place. I don't give a rat sh@t for this kinda stuff. If you got some solid hard facts then share them if not f@ckoff. All this nonsense is really taking up a lot of space and time to go thru. Post real facts not just what if's or hypothetical garbage. Post proof with your claims and maybe you will get some credibility. Peace
How do you know he lost money. Why don't you go back to pumping your c-biscuit. Sure seems like you want some shares here real bad to me on the cheap with all your bashing. Don't have a problem with some of the info you provide just the smart ass comments and bashing. You want some shares I let you buy mine when they are 0.25.
Wonder how they would feel if I went over to their board and started bashing first thing at the bell. Just venting and I'm better than to play into that children's game. However if I had some solid facts would be willing to share it them. Get that Mr. Green and company.
Me thinks you could very well be right. I must say that the interview with Tripp has really calmed my nerves. Ready to go tomorrow. IMO it will be a green day. GLTA GO MJNA!!!
Link to Tripp interview recorded.
http://www.livestream.com/tradiovdenver/video?clipId=pla_72434d6f-6826-4a72-b6de-5a3e528c83ad
Full audited financials coming out soon according to Tripp on radio show. He says there is absolutely no illegal business with MJNA. We appreciate your comments Mr. Green was an awesome day to pick up more shares. Mr. Tripp says after financials they should easily get up list on the OTC. Great interview and the company is looking good. GO MJNA GO.
Hear, Hear. Get that Mr. Green. Been checking you out. Looks to me you are invested with c-biscuit. Good luck with that
Again I agree. No way they can shut down MJNA.
I agree, picked up some at a nice discount and then nice bounce. As for Mr. Green you are now on ignore as you can't see the bigger picture. Hopefully most traders didn't fall for the scare tactics. Go MJNA
Well I happen to think you are wrong. Company will do just fine if not even better now that Llamas is gone. Feds won't be able to shut down MJNA as its a public company. If a sieze happens we will have a chance to buy out any shares he may own. Llamas is a pawn in all of the charges against him. IMO I would be surprised to see a conviction and secondly the penalty is jail or a fine. The real crooks are Loomis and father inlaw they will be on the hook for most of the punishment. Loomis is the big fish here and the one with the most to worry about. I will be picking up more shares today. GLTU
So the question is how many share did you pick up today?
Extremely happy here. Nice day to pick up shares at at discount. Keep selling so we can buy on the cheap. Go MJNA
Don't mislead people either. He hasn't been convicted of anything yet. You are assuming he will be convicted which may or may not happen. Innocent until proven otherwise so stop with the fear tactics. You are also speculating on the outcome if he is convicted which you have no idea what will happen. Could take years for all this to evolve. Give it a rest as time will tell the real story and truth.
Dude, how old are you. You are trying to scare the crap outta everyone. The Feds can't seize MJNA common wake up. They can charge ML and take away his personal assets if he is convicted and the courts want his assets so be it. How do you suppose they are gonna take away MJNA. Not gonna happen, M.L. will have to step down and we will have a new CEO which will be even better. If you wanna sell tomorrow go ahead as I will be there at the bell waiting to pick up shares.
C'mon guys what is a penny stock. Look at what's going on here. We have a good speculation and some nice DD. When news comes and hopefully soon with the a/s and float this should be good to go. Any stock is somewhat of a gamble but if the right things happen then boom off we go. Go ICNB, have a good weekend and GLTU
Can't scare me. Coulda sold out during the panic - No way. Just gonna keep adding to my position. IMO the pps will go up with news. 24 hour flow rates and financing. We still have a date with the vote and the outcome of that could be interesting.
Long and Strong Go WGAS. Have a great weekend, GTLA
Estimated dividend payable is .01 ( key is estimated ) and only if the deal goes thru.
No panic here unless you are a shorter. MJNA real company with real product and revenues. Now what's not to like. GLTA and off to the moon.
Kokoho, please show us some facts or evidence of these allegations. I have been looking at all your postings and must say you must of been burned somewhere. You sir are not a happy camper, maybe time for you to go away. Sure wouldn't wanna try and short this stock.
Should be some news out soon. Good time to start more accumulating at these levels. IMO
3hrs behind in this part of the world. 1 hr and a bit a it's TGIF to da moon. Lol
Nice close. MJNA to da moon. Have a nice weekend everyone and oh ya it's Friday and 4:20 shall soon be here in this part of the world. GLTA Go MJNA Go!!!
