Does Marijuana have Medical Value?
You’re sick. Someone offers you marijuana, saying that it will alleviate your suffering. Do you take it? Many patients and doctors have insisted that marijuana is uniquely beneficial, while others say the dangers of cannabis far outweigh the benefits. We know that marijuana is a drug, but is it a medicine?








The Side Effects Aren't Worth It
Denialists
I notice that when scientific studies are provided to back up a claim, commenters deny their validity. I've seen conflicting data from scientific studies on marijuana , but on balance more showing harmful effects. Yes, prescription medications also have side effects. That doesn't mean marijuana's side effects should be discounted. At least prescription medications are not smoked.
