Panama Canal Zone Military Investigations
After an exhaustive study of the smoking of
marijuana among American soldiers stationed
in the zone, the panel of civilian and military
experts recommended that "no steps be taken
by the Canal Zone authorities to prevent the sale
or use of Marihuana." The committee also concluded
that "there is no evidence that Marihuana as grown
and used [in the Canal Zone] is a 'habit-forming' drug."
The LaGuardia Committee Report
Mayor's Committee on Marihuana, The Marihuana
Problem in the City of New York commissioned by
Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia, written by the New York
Academy of Medicine, and published by the City of
New York in 1944
The Consumers Union Report on Licit and Illicit Drugs
This is a landmark study, a "must-read", used as a
basic textbook at major universities. It presents a
comprehensive, fascinating and highly readable
overview of the entire drug issue. It is certainly one
of the first books which should be read by anyone
who wants to know about this subject.
DEA Docket No. 86-22
This is the ruling of the DEA's own Chief Administrative
Law Judge which arose as the result of a suit against
the Federal Government, seeking to reschedule
marijuana for medical purposes. Before issuing his
ruling, Judge Francis Young heard two years of
testimony from both sides of the issue and
accumulated fifteen volumes of research. This was
undoubtedly the most comprehensive study of medical
marijuana done to date. Judge Young concluded that
marijuana was one of the safest therapeutically active
substances known to man, that it had never caused a
single human death, and that the Federal Government's
policy toward medical marijuana is "unconscionable."
A Wiser Course: Ending Drug Prohibition
The Bar of the City of New York studied the issue of drugs
and drug policy for about five years and concluded that
the only reasonable way to correct the current problems
would be to repeal the Federal laws on these drugs in
their entirety and allow the states to develop their own
programs, similar to the situation with alcohol.

How can I join/donate/help with this effort?
ChristiansForCannabis.Com is not an organized group
to join. The goal is to encourage individual research
and involvement. If you support ending the criminal
prohibition of cannabis, actively educate and lobby elected
officals to end the prohibition of cannabis and encourage
friends and family members that support change to do
the same.
Your membership and financial support are definitely
needed and can most effectively be utilized by organizations
in the position to translate your involvement into change.
Two that are recommended:
NORML
For over thirty years NORML (The National Organization
for the Reform of Marijuana Laws) has been steadfastly
dedicated to ending the prohibition of cannabis.
DrugSense
Provides accurate information relevant to drug policy in
order to heighten awareness of the extreme damage being
caused to our nation and the world by the currently flawed
and failed "War on Drugs" and hosts many drug policy
reform sites through Drug Policy Central.
