They aren't, but there are other pain killers to get through chemo, not just wonderweed.

Not all of them work. There are a number of situations where the THC from pot appears to be the only thing that works.

Again a medical issue.

3. Pray you never need morphine.

Another medical issue.

I'm just answering your question: How many lives have these drugs saved. Don't yell at me if I actually answered them.

Firearms help protect innocent life and property, how many lives has the "recreational" use of a joint, crack pipe, orused heroin needle saved?

How many lives has the "recreational" use of fast food, alcohol, coffee and tobacco saved? Are you saying that if something can be used recreationally, it should be banned?

Has a joint ever prevented a robbery? Yeah I can just see it.

A joint isn't a weapon of self-defense. You might as well ask "Has an orange ever prevented a robbery?" or "has a stuff teddybear ever prevented a robbery?" You use the right tools for the right job. Has a can of beer ever prevented a robbery?

Hmm, you are always so negative and try to bring down products to the level of your precious drugs, just like a good leftist.

Fast food tastes good and does provide sustenance. Alcohol is used in all manners of cooking and a good glass of wine compliments a good meal. Coffee also tastes good and is uesd in social situations to help ease tension. Tobacco while bad for the health dosen't make one a stoned pot head.

So you see your little knee jerk liberal reaction of saying these products on par with your precious pot is ludicrous, when one looks at the different uses of these products.

But that doesn't matter to you, IMHO. You are on a crusade to replace the ceremonial glass of champagne with the communal bong at weddings.
