The supreme court has just ruled medical marijuana is illegal. Many states that have medical marijuana programs are now reviewing them to determine their legality. It's possible that someone in the medical profession who distributes medical marijuana could be prosecuted and sent to prison.
Is this fair for the people in chronic pain? If I'm dying from cancer, I could go to prison for smoking legal weed. Having had cancer myself, I think it's a raw deal for people who are really sick. http://www.medicalmarijuanaprocon.org/pop/conflicts.htm Any thoughts, comments? |

1st of all weed doesnt make the pain go away.. It helps you goto sleep and it makes you hungry and relaxed.....I think it should be LEGAL...everyone does it anyway so whats the problem?

It helps you goto sleep and it makes you hungry and relaxed.....I think it should be LEGAL...everyone does it anyway so whats the problem? the problem is that weed is a gateway drug. first hand i can tell you, if you smoke weed, you dont think its that bad (it isnt, in my opinion). but hell, if weed isnt bad, what about pills? X? Crack? seriously, i've seen this transition- and im not the first to mention it. Marijuana is a gateway drug, and congress fears (rightfully, probly) that if its legal, more will smoke it, and more will submerge themselves into the world of drugs. like i said, "firsthand" - no hypocrites. |
