It oughta be legalized. It's a waste of time and money trying to enforce those pot laws.
Finally, some sanity on this issue. I hate pain, if licking frogs relieves the pain, let's prescribe frogs and a glass of water. What is the difference between prescribing pot for pain, or heroin? Both are potentially addictive drugs and both of them work. Heroin, Barbituates and Amphetimines are addictive, yet we use them.
Can't they put it in a pill or cough syrup or something? Smoking causes all kinds of other health problems, like lung cancer.
A cancer-causing agent ostensibly 'prescribable', and with insufficent science behind it ALL because 'popular outcry' calls for it.
"Just say no."
What we have here is the worst situation: Legal to use it, illegal to produce or distribute. That is what leads to the wars on the streets, which leads to the intrustions on the 4th and 2nd amendments. Personally, I think it should be legal and Phillip Morris can grow it. But, if not, then we need to fight the war as hard as we can.
