1. Dupont created nylon, but hemp rope was cheaper and most popular rope type.
Dupont sent in their lobbiests.
2. Henry ford introduced hemp fiber + plastic composites for body parts for their model T's
Steel industry sent in their lobbiests.
3. Then throw in the end of Alcohol prohibition.
Distillery owners sent in more lobbiests.
4. Drug companies and their lobby.
5. Then comes the race card and prejudice sponsored by our law enforcement organizations.
More BS than you can throw a stick at.
71 years later and here we are.
I now can see the light, and the end of pot prohibition, finally!

I used to want to credit the industrial forces such as DuPont and Hearst. I had a real hard time accepting that was racism. I very much wish it was not true. I think that is exactly what was behind it.
Can almost understand a Texas Schoolbook commission wanting to rewrite it all.

Also one key fact is Ford was pushing to use only Hemp alcohol as fuel for his cars. When washington and Standard Oil found out they banned Alcohol until they could legislate Fossil based fuels as THE fuel for cars.
Add into the mix cannabis prohibition and it is a one two combo knockout punch to Ford and free-enterprise.

Another great source for real-time info from back in the day is a book
entitled: "The Marijuana Papers", by David Solomon.
Published back in the '70's as a paperback.
Has actual reprints of congressional transcripts dating back to the '30's
detailing the quite open racist views commonplace at that time.
A dense book, not a page turner, but an excellent reference book.

Agreed.
I've spoken at 2 state senate committee hearings on the subject.
I've marched in 4 pro-pot rallies carrying protest signs.
I've signed numerous petitions.
Been a NORML member for nearly 20 years.
Sent god knows how many post cards to my US Senators.
And most important?
I cast my vote to legalize recreational weed in Oregon.
I'd say I'm a choir member that needs no preaching

There were a lot of industries that Cannabis competes with - the medical industry, the petro-chemical industry, etc.
Looks like the plan was to make this economical useful material illegal, during the 1930's.
Then to spend the next 80 years telling lies about Cannabis.
The MSM still rarely tells the truth about Cannabis - that it was once a widely prescribed medication in the US ... along with preparations of Cocaine and Opium.

there is a nwo top 1% elite.
there are factions within the nwo cabal. rockefellers, bush, rothschields, israel zionists.
they run this world except for a few countries . they make money anywhere they can including sex trafficking of children and drugs.
if you compete with them they take you out. if you comply with them they protect you.
cannabis can be manufactured anywhere in the world. the global nwo wants cannabis illegal so they have high profits and a monopoly on cannabis mfg. and distribution and dispersal of profits.
^^ this is why cannabis is illegal. this is why gypsy and kanga are in jail.

^^ fabulous information. well worth your time while doing a little trim work.
the us government is the largest illegal drug cartel in the world. they have been doing this for a very long time. the us government is not america's government. they are part a global criminal cabal aka nwo.
^ couple of little snippets. great, relatively short article with lots of links to source material.

I believe the plant was suppressed for many reasons and this reason is still commonly hidden from people, even though it is hidden right out in open sight .
Little scientifically is known about cannabinoids and there wide ranging effects within the human mind and consciousness . Or is this information being kept from the public ? Cannabinoids and the frequencies created by them within the mind may have a deep effect on the pineal gland itself .Even if not , the clarity of insight that cannabis can offer is enough on its own to see through the smoke
