Remembering Peter McWilliams (Official Tribute)

Peter Alexander McWilliams (August 5, 1949 – June 14, 2000) was a NY Times best-selling author, a a Libertarian and a medical Cannabis activist.

He self-published over forty books from computer books and poetry to personal growth; (LIFE 101 Series), healing loss/depression, ("How to Survive the Loss of a Love" / "How to Heal Depression") plus Libertarian ideals ("Ain't Nobody's Business if You Do"), and even photography ("Portraits.")

He recommended the use of St. John's Wort to help those suffering depression after he himself was healed from his own crippling depression.

He became a medicinal cannabis activist after being diagnosed with AIDS and non-Hodgkins lymphoma in 1996. The government disallowed him to use the herb, and Peter died at the young age of 50 on June 14th, 2000. I discovered Peter nine years later and hope others will discover and love him too.

 Can anyone actually argue his points on medical cannabis?  
Anyone at all?
