The official web site for Jack Herer, featuring his classic underground book “The Emperor Wears No Clothes: The Authoritative Historical Record of Cannabis and the Conspiracy Against Marijuana and How Hemp Can Save the World!”, the number one best selling hemp book of all time.

“The most talked about underground book of the past decade.”
—Hugh Downs, ABC’s 20/20

In this thoroughly researched, scrupulously annoted, and shockingly provocative book you’ll learn:

How and why Cannabis prohibition began and what that has meant to America.

All the uses of hemp as medicine, food, fuel, fiber, paper, and as a plastic replacement.

The straight dope on marijuana smoking and its effect on the human body.

Who profits from the prohibition and criminalization of Cannabis.

What you can do to speed up legislation and profit from the coming changes.

A $100,000* Challenge to the World to Prove Us Wrong

If all fossil fuels and their derivatives, as well as trees for paper and construction were banned in order to save the planet, reverse the Greenhouse Effect, and stop deforestation;

Then there is only one known annually renewable natural resource that is capable of providing the overall majority of the world's paper and textiles; meet all of the world's transportation, industrial, and home energy needs, while simultaneously reducing pollution, rebuilding the soil,
and cleaning the atmosphere all at the same time…

And that substance is—the same one that did it all before—Cannabis Hemp…Marijuana!

Interview: Jack Herer

Jack Herer Emperor of Hemp Goes On Sale
September 16, 1999
This is an excellent video!

VENTURA, CA -- "Emperor of Hemp -- a nonfiction film about one man’s fight for truth, justice … and a plant -- is now available on video.

Produced by Double J Films of Ventura, CA., the documentary was funded by Body Shop International founder Anita Roddick, written by former L.A. Times staff writer Jeff Meyers and directed by Jeff Jones. Bonnie Raitt, Kris Kristofferson, Joe Walsh and Cheap Trick provided songs for the soundtrack. Peter Coyote supplied the narration.

The 59-minute film tells Jack Herer’s story and how he came to write the underground bestseller “The Emperor Wears No Clothes.” Even if you've read the book, "Emperor of Hemp" will take you down new paths.

It explores his transformation from Goldwater Republican to father of the modern hemp movement. His tenacious crusade to bring hemp back from the brink of extinction. His rejection by the marijuana reform movement, and his ultimate vindication.

It puts you inside the Library of Congress when he finds proof that "Hemp for Victory" was made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture And it examines the rather peculiar circumstances surrounding the prohibition of a simple beneficial plant.

Double J Films has no plans at this time to show the film on TV or in theaters.

It is only being sold online at

More rehashed Nahas hogwash. Murder. But whats that to a DEAth merchant? Same as the MTV quack shrink babbling until science cancelled his show as too far out. His cohort went on to bigger and better gigs, the man show. Drewpy is lost in his reefermadness pimping his gossipol on the more naive networks occassionally. Like Czarberry McCafferty whoring to the newz that'll have him. This rumor surfaces every few years when ever legislation threatens the profits. The same robots pull out the threats to scare soccer mommies and give politicops ammo. Murdering kids in the process. Straight kids that see life as too much to handle. Nerds in the wrong neighborhood. Gay kids in redneck homes. Kids that show signs no one sees and on occassion they stumble onto Ganja and find a temperary hiding place. Away from the threats of reality that is out of porportion to them. They realize they don't have to be what they're told to be. They might even go so far as to step on the shadow of a white man, or talk back to a parent. Grow they're hair or get nipple rings.

And they are really not what matters, its how it looks that matter. But to these lying dungeaters spreading these fears and falsehoods its mostly profit. Ganja takes the edge off in spite of the prohibition caused paranoia. Until the kid is caught and forced into "treatment" asylums that profit as much as the prison complexes. They feed us fascist Hitlers until we get fed up and settle for Mussolini's. Then back to the Bushitters. Now the kid is clean, sober and dead. That is a problem. Can't earn $50,000.00 a head in "Prison" or Asylums or even to sell them white powders and theory-py. Again neglegent in their pshchic ability when non industrial countries haven't the same figures. Or the morgues having the actual bodies. ABC bumped the news about ganja shrinking brain tumors thought to be discovered in Spain. But only to find it was actually re discovered, since the US buried the inforomation in 1974. They broadcast the Nahaish neck cancer nonsense in stead. They also bumped the news about Ganja and MS for Ganja "causes" heart attacks. Same nonsense.

CORONERS’ LAW RESOURCE

The Coroners’ Society of England and Wales
The Society was formed in 1846, and is a voluntary association of coroners, deputy coroners and assistant deputy coroners. In practice, almost all of those eligible to join do so. It holds an annual conference, and joins with the Home Office in providing training courses to its members.

The Society has produced Practice Notes for Coroners, which are not legally binding, or authoritative in any way, but represent the views of the Society as to what in normal circumstances constitutes good practice for coroners.

On 4 June 2003 the Society issued a Press Statement on the Report of the Fundamental Review of Death Certification and Investigation. On 14 July 2003 it issued a Press Statement on the Third Report of the Shipman Inquiry.

The Honorary Secretary is M J C Burgess, Esq (HM Coroner for Surrey, and of The Queen's Household), and the address for correspondence is 44 Ormond Avenue, Hampton, Middlesex, TW12 2RX.

Recommendations for Coroners
The Coroners' Society shall instruct Coroners that: in the proper exercise of their judicial discretion, the decision to order a post mortem examination is not to be delegated to Coroner's Officers and Deputy Coroners must be available at all times...???

"Hamish Turner has allowed us to identify ways of realising our business opportunities."

"Their recommendations and help made it possible for us to push forward quicker and with greater confidence than on our own."

From telecommunications suppliers through to the garment industry, engineering components manufacturing, plastic moulding and the packaging industry, we provide the same high levels of service and personal attention.

Tuesday 30 September 2003
A new Coroner has been appointed for South Devon, following the announcement of the retirement of Hamish Turner.
Hamish Turner will retire on 31 October, and following 21 years of service as coroner and 17 as deputy coroner, is one of the longest-serving coroners in the UK. Said Councillor Harris: ¬ìI would like to thank Hamish Turner for his many years of sterling service to the community. We were fortunate to have such a well-respected Coroner who established an excellent reputation both locally, and nationally as president of the England and Wales Coroners Society. I would like to wish him all the very best in his retirement.¬î

Naha's Prescription for Bloated Police Budges excerpts

Gabriel Nahas, in 1998, is living in Paris and goes around Europe teaching as gospel the same old lies to less informed Europeans. When asked to debate us (H.E.M.P.) on cannabis before the world press on June 18, 1993 in Paris, he first enthusiastically accepted until he found out that we would be speaking on all aspects of the hemp plant (e.g. paper, fiber, fuel, medicine). Then he declined, even though we met all of his requirements.

Incredibly, a famous study which found that cannabis reduces tumors (see Chapter 7), was originally ordered by the Federal Government on the premise that pot would hurt the immune system. This was based on the "Reefer Madness" studies done by the disreputable Dr. Gabriel Nahas of Columbia University in 1972.

Cannabis Shrinks Tumors: Government Knew in 74

Old, discredited Nahas studies are still trotted out by the Drug Enforcement Administration today, and deliberately given to unknowledgeable parents' groups, churches, and PTAs as valid research regarding the evils of pot.

DdC · 11-13-2003, 01:26 AM

* Nahas, in December 1983, under ridicule from his peers and a funding cut-off from NIDA renounced all his old THC metabolite build-up and unique chromosome petri dish tissue damage studies, conclusions, and extrapolations.

Yet the DEA, NIDA, VISTA, the "War on Drugs," and now-deceased writer Peggy Mann (in Reader's Digest articles and her book Marijuana Alert, wilth foreward by Nancy Reagan) have used these discredited studies on parents' groups such as Parents for a Drug Free Youth, etc., often with Nahas as a highly paid guest lecturer, without a word of how his studies are really considered by this peers.

The DEA, after Nahas' 1983 waffling renouncement, consciously and criminally continues to use his studies to polarize ignorant judges, politicians, press, and parent groups, who are unaware of Nahas' denouncement. These groups trust the government to tell them the truth their tax dollars paid for. Most of the media, press, and television commentators still use Nahas' 1970s, unreplicated studies as gospel, and much of the frightening folklore and street myths taht are whispered around school yards spring from the deceitful "scientist's" work.

It is getting easier to pick them out of the crowd...

I've passed out so many copies of the 'Emporer...' in this state that I have no problem believing we're the number 1 state for marijuana use (govt. stats-Colorado).

The information you've been posting here is devastating to the people that have been anti-pot all of their lives. Most of my own extended family were against marijuana in any form 20 years ago yet today I don't have a single family member that doesn't either smoke pot or would actually vote for its legalization.

A lot of people ask me if marijuana is the only subject I ever think or talk about. I always answer 'No; it's just the most important subject in the world and effects every living thing on this planet'.

Those of you that are in negative situation with your parents, spouse, friends, etc. because of your pot use would be well advised to know your shit about the history of marijuana. You're a cripple in this world if you can't justify, with the truth, your connection to this plant.

George W. Bush · 11-13-2003, 11:01 AM

Just a small note:

I read quite a few of the links you posted, DdC, and some of them are informative and worthwhile, while some are complete fucking nonsense. The most glaring bullshit column is:

MEXICO: Fox Campaign was Illegally Funded by U.S.
Interests Opposition Leaders Call for New Election

This article was written by Hector Carreon, a fucking joke of a human being, a wild-eyed Anti-Semite Conspiracy Theorist Wack Job of the highest order, and the publisher of "La Voz de Aztlan", the very epitome of a Yellow Journalism publication. Carreon is a one-trick pony, and even the least educated and ill-informed Mexican views La Voz de Aztlan as nothing more than a fish-wrap bird cage liner and nothing near a legitimate news source. While it is an online publication, there is a hardcore army of unwashed Neo-Marxist bored college students in red berets and Che Guevara T-shirts here in Mexico City who print out thousands of copies of Carreon's latest bullshit columns and hand them out if they can't sell them at subway stations.

Carreon has a hard-on for "Zionist Conspiracies", some with a little bit of foundation in truth, but most of his asserted "facts" are invented and imagined. He also frequently attempts to pass off his opinions as facts, because his online readership is generally woefully uneducated and unable to think critically for themselves.

A little more background on Carreon:

He fucking LOVES Castro. He is often published in Islamic publications such as the Syria Times (a bastion of truthful reporting if there ever was one). He is a "Brown Supremacist" and espouses views on Latino/Anglo separatism that make most people say, "What the fuck is this guy's problem?". He refers to the American Southwest as "Northern Mexico", and he gets a stiff pee-pee when Palestinians blow up Jews. He's a Grade A fucking nut.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, "Check your sources.". You post a Hector Carreon column, and in the same post criticize the New York Journal. They are one and the same, as far as crediblity goes. This may seem like an ad hominem attack on the guy, without refuting the actual content of the column. But it's a Hector Fucking Carreon column. I wouldn't waste my time repudiating the facts of a National Enquirer story, or the loony claims of any of many online White Supremacist hate publications either.

I too, have read articles from links posted by DdC that I thought were off target but I don't think you've ever seen a comment by him extolling the virtues or faults of ANY link he has posted. That's what news should be about. Determine for yourself the value of any report.

Pepper_I · 11-13-2003, 04:58 PM

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/articl...441EDT6792.DTL

The AP reported that Fox's campaign accepted 15-20% of it's funding from foriegn sources (violating Mexican Law). Maybe it was just a coincidence that the 8 million his campaign spent over the legal limit of 46 million was 15-20%.

"They that start by burning books will end by burning men."
(German) "Dort, wo man BŸcher verbrennt, verbrennt man am Ende auch Menschen."
--Heinrich Heine (1797-1856), from his play Almansor (1821)

No one is infalible. No religion or person is immune from becoming a practicing fascist. Fascism is not directly related to Nazi's. Romans on through the ages used fascist means. The same as Klintoon and the entire Bushit administration. Jews and WASPs and Athiests makes no difference in the profits. The only color recognized is green, the color of the money.

Crying wolf is a sure way to perk curiosity. When one attempts to hide the truth by falsely claiming buzzwords, one only loses any respect they may have been given. I'm not blaming the Jews for Fox's corruption, only the individual coincidental Jewish fascist behind this particular bit of corruption. Like the coincidentially Jewish S&L scammer redwood clearcutter Hurwitz. Or many of the bootleggers during booze prohibition and the start of Vegas. Hiding behind anti semitism with no proof makes anti semitism the issue instead of the corruption. Why do that? I have many Jewish friends and care for Jewish patients in their last days. Going to Temple with them or helping them light their sader candles on Friday night. But even they don't think they're beyond human error. Corruption is the problem, don't make it religious. Though they're all as corrupt as the corporations imho.

From Whom Did the Fascists Get Support?
Italian fascism and German Nazism had their admirers within the U.S. business community and the corporate owned press. Bankers, publishers, and industrialists, including the likes of Henry Ford, traveled to Rome and Berlin to pay homage, receive medals, and strike profitable deals. Many did their utmost to advance the Nazi war effort, sharing military industrial secrets and engaging in secret transactions with the Nazi government, even after the United States entered the war. During the 1920s and early 1930s, major publications like Fortune, the Wall Street Journal, Saturday Evening Post, New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and Christian Science Monitor hailed Mussolini as the man who rescued Italy from anarchy and radicalism.

Mexican leader's party faces hefty fine
Miami Herald MEXICO Wed, Oct. 08, 2003
A commission has ruled that President Vicente Fox's 2000 campaign must pay $50 million for violating electoral laws. The campaign-finance investigation started with a complaint that the Fox campaign had received money from outside Mexico in violation of Mexican law.

Political alliance that backed Fox faces $50 million fine
The Dallas Morning News

Fox Campaign Accused of Funding Irregularities
Mexico’s Federal Electoral Institute issued a report in July charging that President Fox’s campaign violated several election finance rules during the last presidential election in 2000. The report alleges that Fox’s campaign accepted several hundred thousand dollars from two unnamed foreign contributors, collected nearly $300,00 from sitting Senators (both types of contributions are forbidden), and failed to report over $9 million in general contributions. The Institute cannot file criminal charges but is likely to impose a significant fine on Fox’s party, National Action or PAN. Regardless of the legal outcome, the report is an embarrassment to Fox, undermining his efforts to establish PAN as the enemy of Mexico’s traditional corruption.

But whats that to a DEAth merchant? Same as the MTV quack shrink babbling until science cancelled his show as too far out. His cohort went on to bigger and better gigs, the man show. Drewpy is lost in his reefermadness pimping his gossipol on the more naive networks occassionally. Like Czarberry McCafferty whoring to the newz that'll have him. This rumor surfaces every few years when ever legislation threatens the profits. The same robots pull out the threats to scare soccer mommies and give politicops ammo. Murdering kids in the process. Straight kids that see life as too much to handle. Nerds in the wrong neighborhood. Gay kids in redneck homes. Kids that show signs no one sees and on occassion they stumble onto Ganja and find a temperary hiding place. Away from the threats of reality that is out of porportion to them. They realize they don't have to be what they're told to be. They might even go so far as to step on the shadow of a white man, or talk back to a parent. Grow they're hair or get nipple rings. And they are really not what matters, its how it looks that matter. But to these lying dungeaters spreading these fears and falsehoods its mostly profit. Ganja takes the edge off in spite of the prohibition caused paranoia. Until the kid is caught and forced into "treatment" asylums that profit as much as the prison complexes. They feed us fascist Hitlers until we get fed up and settle for Mussolini's. Then back to the Bushitters. Now the kid is clean, sober and dead. That is a problem. Can't earn $50,000.00 a head in "Prison" or Asylums or even to sell them white powders and theory-py. Again neglegent in their pshchic ability when non industrial countries haven't the same figures. Or the morgues having the actual bodies. ABC bumped the news about ganja shrinking brain tumors thought to be discovered in Spain. But only to find it was actually re discovered, since the US buried the inforomation in 1974. They broadcast the Nahaish neck cancer nonsense in stead. They also bumped the news about Ganja and MS for Ganja "causes" heart attacks. Same nonsense. Peace, Love and Liberty or DEAth DdC This was debunked on 02/11/2003?

In practice, almost all of those eligible to join do so. It holds an annual conference, and joins with the Home Office in providing training courses to its members. The Society has produced Practice Notes for Coroners, which are not legally binding, or authoritative in any way, but represent the views of the Society as to what in normal circumstances constitutes good practice for coroners. On 4 June 2003 the Society issued a Press Statement on the Report of the Fundamental Review of Death Certification and Investigation. On 14 July 2003 it issued a Press Statement on the Third Report of the Shipman Inquiry. The Honorary Secretary is M J C Burgess, Esq (HM Coroner for Surrey, and of The Queen's Household), and the address for correspondence is 44 Ormond Avenue, Hampton, Middlesex, TW12 2RX. Recommendations for Coroners The Coroners' Society shall instruct Coroners that: in the proper exercise of their judicial discretion, the decision to order a post mortem examination is not to be delegated to Coroner's Officers and Deputy Coroners must be available at all times...???

Hamish Turner will retire on 31 October, and following 21 years of service as coroner and 17 as deputy coroner, is one of the longest-serving coroners in the UK. Said Councillor Harris: ¬ìI would like to thank Hamish Turner for his many years of sterling service to the community. We were fortunate to have such a well-respected Coroner who established an excellent reputation both locally, and nationally as president of the England and Wales Coroners Society. I would like to wish him all the very best in his retirement.¬î How can I tell you about a mistake in one of your stories? 10 of the 100 deaths is 28 million a year in the US, in 10 years we'll be extinct! Melanie Phillips's Articles Comment section on this story... Naha's Prescription for Bloated Police Budges excerpts Gabriel Nahas, in 1998, is living in Paris and goes around Europe teaching as gospel the same old lies to less informed Europeans. When asked to debate us (H.E.M.P.) on cannabis before the world press on June 18, 1993 in Paris, he first enthusiastically accepted until he found out that we would be speaking on all aspects of the hemp plant (e.g. paper, fiber, fuel, medicine). Then he declined, even though we met all of his requirements. Incredibly, a famous study which found that cannabis reduces tumors (see Chapter 7), was originally ordered by the Federal Government on the premise that pot would hurt the immune system. This was based on the "Reefer Madness" studies done by the disreputable Dr. Gabriel Nahas of Columbia University in 1972. Cannabis Shrinks Tumors: Government Knew in 74 Old, discredited Nahas studies are still trotted out by the Drug Enforcement Administration today, and deliberately given to unknowledgeable parents' groups, churches, and PTAs as valid research regarding the evils of pot.

Yet the DEA, NIDA, VISTA, the "War on Drugs," and now-deceased writer Peggy Mann (in Reader's Digest articles and her book Marijuana Alert, wilth foreward by Nancy Reagan) have used these discredited studies on parents' groups such as Parents for a Drug Free Youth, etc., often with Nahas as a highly paid guest lecturer, without a word of how his studies are really considered by this peers. The DEA, after Nahas' 1983 waffling renouncement, consciously and criminally continues to use his studies to polarize ignorant judges, politicians, press, and parent groups, who are unaware of Nahas' denouncement. These groups trust the government to tell them the truth their tax dollars paid for. Most of the media, press, and television commentators still use Nahas' 1970s, unreplicated studies as gospel, and much of the frightening folklore and street myths taht are whispered around school yards spring from the deceitful "scientist's" work.

George W. Bush Commander-in-Chimp Join Date: Aug 2002 Location: Surrounded by Fucking Mexicans Posts: 1,801 Thanks: 0 Thanked 9 Times in 2 Posts	Just a small note: I read quite a few of the links you posted, DdC, and some of them are informative and worthwhile, while some are complete fucking nonsense. The most glaring bullshit column is: MEXICO: Fox Campaign was Illegally Funded by U.S. Interests Opposition Leaders Call for New Election This article was written by Hector Carreon, a fucking joke of a human being, a wild-eyed Anti-Semite Conspiracy Theorist Wack Job of the highest order, and the publisher of "La Voz de Aztlan", the very epitome of a Yellow Journalism publication. Carreon is a one-trick pony, and even the least educated and ill-informed Mexican views La Voz de Aztlan as nothing more than a fish-wrap bird cage liner and nothing near a legitimate news source. While it is an online publication, there is a hardcore army of unwashed Neo-Marxist bored college students in red berets and Che Guevara T-shirts here in Mexico City who print out thousands of copies of Carreon's latest bullshit columns and hand them out if they can't sell them at subway stations. Carreon has a hard-on for "Zionist Conspiracies", some with a little bit of foundation in truth, but most of his asserted "facts" are invented and imagined. He also frequently attempts to pass off his opinions as facts, because his online readership is generally woefully uneducated and unable to think critically for themselves. A little more background on Carreon: He fucking LOVES Castro. He is often published in Islamic publications such as the Syria Times (a bastion of truthful reporting if there ever was one). He is a "Brown Supremacist" and espouses views on Latino/Anglo separatism that make most people say, "What the fuck is this guy's problem?". He refers to the American Southwest as "Northern Mexico", and he gets a stiff pee-pee when Palestinians blow up Jews. He's a Grade A fucking nut. I guess what I'm trying to say is, "Check your sources.". You post a Hector Carreon column, and in the same post criticize the New York Journal. They are one and the same, as far as crediblity goes. This may seem like an ad hominem attack on the guy, without refuting the actual content of the column. But it's a Hector Fucking Carreon column. I wouldn't waste my time repudiating the facts of a National Enquirer story, or the loony claims of any of many online White Supremacist hate publications either.

Maybe it was just a coincidence that the 8 million his campaign spent over the legal limit of 46 million was 15-20%.

(German) "Dort, wo man BŸcher verbrennt, verbrennt man am Ende auch Menschen." --Heinrich Heine (1797-1856), from his play Almansor (1821) No one is infalible. No religion or person is immune from becoming a practicing fascist. Fascism is not directly related to Nazi's. Romans on through the ages used fascist means. The same as Klintoon and the entire Bushit administration. Jews and WASPs and Athiests makes no difference in the profits. The only color recognized is green, the color of the money. Crying wolf is a sure way to perk curiosity. When one attempts to hide the truth by falsely claiming buzzwords, one only loses any respect they may have been given. I'm not blaming the Jews for Fox's corruption, only the individual coincidental Jewish fascist behind this particular bit of corruption. Like the coincidentially Jewish S&L scammer redwood clearcutter Hurwitz. Or many of the bootleggers during booze prohibition and the start of Vegas. Hiding behind anti semitism with no proof makes anti semitism the issue instead of the corruption. Why do that? I have many Jewish friends and care for Jewish patients in their last days. Going to Temple with them or helping them light their sader candles on Friday night. But even they don't think they're beyond human error. Corruption is the problem, don't make it religious. Though they're all as corrupt as the corporations imho. Peace, Love and Liberty or DEAth DdC From Whom Did the Fascists Get Support? Italian fascism and German Nazism had their admirers within the U.S. business community and the corporate owned press. Bankers, publishers, and industrialists, including the likes of Henry Ford, traveled to Rome and Berlin to pay homage, receive medals, and strike profitable deals. Many did their utmost to advance the Nazi war effort, sharing military industrial secrets and engaging in secret transactions with the Nazi government, even after the United States entered the war. During the 1920s and early 1930s, major publications like Fortune, the Wall Street Journal, Saturday Evening Post, New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and Christian Science Monitor hailed Mussolini as the man who rescued Italy from anarchy and radicalism. Mexican leader's party faces hefty fine Miami Herald MEXICO Wed, Oct. 08, 2003 A commission has ruled that President Vicente Fox's 2000 campaign must pay $50 million for violating electoral laws. The campaign-finance investigation started with a complaint that the Fox campaign had received money from outside Mexico in violation of Mexican law. Political alliance that backed Fox faces $50 million fine The Dallas Morning News Fox Campaign Accused of Funding Irregularities Mexico’s Federal Electoral Institute issued a report in July charging that President Fox’s campaign violated several election finance rules during the last presidential election in 2000. The report alleges that Fox’s campaign accepted several hundred thousand dollars from two unnamed foreign contributors, collected nearly $300,00 from sitting Senators (both types of contributions are forbidden), and failed to report over $9 million in general contributions. The Institute cannot file criminal charges but is likely to impose a significant fine on Fox’s party, National Action or PAN. Regardless of the legal outcome, the report is an embarrassment to Fox, undermining his efforts to establish PAN as the enemy of Mexico’s traditional corruption.
