an interview with dr. donald tashkin, a marijuana researcher from UCLA is in the links section...

in 2000, reasearchers in madrid, spain found out what american scientists at the medical college of virginia knew since 1976: THC fights cancer. scientists funded to find evidence that marijuana damages the immune system, instead found that THC slows the progress of lung and breast cancer, as well as a virus-induced leukemia in mice. the DEA immediately shut down the study and all further cannabis/tumor research. in '76, US president gerald ford scratched all public cannabis research and granted exclusive research rights to pharmaceutical companies which tried and failed to come up with a synthetic THC (dumb asses) .
