Medical Marijuana

that's not even close to a funny statement. i went to high school with this woman. it helps her and that's all that counts. many natural flora are remedies that will work for many illnesses. do you take aspirin,,,bark of a tree? and cannabis was declared not legal in the 30's (as memory serves) along with booze, religious self righteous zealots were the cause. if it helps any person who is in the process of checking out,,,i'm all for it. make it legal and tax it for revenue

disclaimer; i don't smoke dope, i do smoke cigars.

thanks for proving my point, you made every swallow argument at once.

Please post a link to these studies, I'm curious.

Ok I can not find the studies pointing to that specifically in the time I have to spend on it tonight but here are a few that mentions problems including seizures from drug use including MJ while pregnant or breast feeding.

I think it is the first link you can scroll down to a section just on MJ. If I get more time later I will try to find those studies. I have seen them in journals so they must be online. EVERYTHING is online nowadays.

and they don't have legal drugs that will do the same thing? I find it amazing how everybody knows the same old lady that enjoys getting high.

Got a news flash for you..... there's a lot of old people out there in pain.

That statement right there should open lots of eyes and bring forth lots of questions.

Why is a MJ in the same category as Herioin, LSD, and Psilocybin.? Big Pharma has done some wonderful things, but IMO, if big Pharma can't control 100% of it, they don't want anybody else to reap its benefits.

I'm not usually on the CT side of things, but you're spot on. Weed ain't even in the same ballpark as the others.

I'm a child of the 70's. Any law against pot is ludicrous. Make it legal, tax it and let everyone that's is jail for it, out.
The fact you can grow it in your yard, if you want, (and can't be taxed that way) it's illegal.
Makes no sense.
Prescription drugs are much worse (don't get me wrong...I DON'T WANT PRESCRIPTION DRUGS OUTLAWED...Ha!)
