So, perhaps, you owe the T-Bone an apology.

Do you understand what chemo-therapy for cancer generally is? The majority of the time it means taking a poison that is more harmful to cancer cells because healthy cells can regenerate themselves better and more quickly. It does not mean that the poison is good for you other in this perverse sense. This is the same reason why taking arsenic and mercury was accepted medical practice for venereal disease before antibiotics became available.

And most of the time the goal of those who argue for legalization is to confuse the issues. In my experience since marijuana was “legalized” here four years ago the problems related to marijuana use in the general population have gotten much worse.

You just proved Mariner's point: for T-Bone Texan to point out that marijuana has anti-cancer potential is NOT for him to say it's "good for you" or even "harmless" as you wer trying to claim about him.

most of the time the goal of those who argue for legalization is to confuse the issues.

The irony is priceless.
