The new documentary by director Kevin Booth, American Drug War 2, highlights the case of a 2-year-old boy who lay in a coma not eating for over 40 days after surviving brain surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. His parents are told to make funeral arrangements. However, his father had read about a version of an ancient drug made from cannabis. Unbeknownst to the hospital staff, the parents start secretly injecting the illegal drug into their dying son’s feeding tube and soon a “miracle” takes place. When the doctors are told that cannabis was the cause of the “miracle,” they have nothing to say.
Every war has unintended victims and it’s the children who are losing America’s longest running war. From cartel recruiting grounds of Mexico — to a child being removed from his birth mother for smoking marijuana. Is it a conspiracy? Or simple profit motives that continue to keep marijuana inside the black market?
Kevin Booth’s original documentary, American Drug War, investigates the war on illegal drugs, filming interviews with high level kingpins, DEA agents, narcotics officers and powerful judges and outlining allegations that the CIA ships illicit drugs into the US.
Definitely a MUST WATCH.
