Wait a minute, i think dfa proved a point for me...
so let me get this straight... i can't smoke cannabis because it will make me some psycho crazy big time danger to society, but if i got to your pharmacy and get a drug WITH THE SAME ACTIVE COMPOUNDS AS MARIJUANA/CANNABIS MARINOL, and i get to pay an arm and a leg for it, it's ok i'll be just a norml (yeah that's right) NORML guy as long as i am paying you????

I agree
Many medicines out there have different results for different people. I think we should not disuade a drug because of the political stigma assiciated with it. Look at all those opiods and cocane derivatives that are used daily by our medical community. It is time to dispell the myth and run corrupt lobbyiest out of politics ! The time and voice of the people will be heard. Medicine is medicine and this one has been used as such for as long as recorded history.
