KNOW THINE ENEMY

The enemies of hemp reform and cannabis reform are one and the same. Not 
only do they not give a tinker's damn about hemp, but they also think 
nothing of letting thousands of sick and dying people linger in pain and 
misery or of incarcerating 700,000 people per year, mostly for simple 
possession, while they lie, cheat and steal in order to maintain the 
profits of prohibition.

The alternatives to prohibition will not be as profitable to them as the 
current policies are. And that includes hemp... like it or not.
