I was in favor of medical maryjane until I was asked to build a sound deadening wall in the consultation room of an approved, legal, medical marijuana dispensary.

I thought the clients would be folks with cancer, people with serious mental issues...

I was in several consultations where the owner was listening to the 100% healthy college student that ‘this was so’ trick’ much better than looking for the dude with the red hat a Walmart.

The whole thing is a sham.

I used to have sympathy, but no more...

Dope smoking is a crime.

Attn Freepers who disagree with me:

What other laws of the union do you break willingly?

A crime is a crime.

Can THC not be synthesized in the lab? There is no need to roll-it-and-smoke-it.

I don’t have a problem under specific circumstances (there are a whole bunch of LEGAL narcotics that one can be prescribed for a variety of pains and disorders that are far more mind-altering and addictive than THC when processed as it appears this student may have access to.

I would have a zero-tolerance policy if other students turned up with the lozenges... that would be distributing a controlled substance (no different than if he were giving/selling his vicodin to fellow students).

I wasn't there at the time, but given the opportunity I'd have helped Roscoe Filburn plant that 11 acres of wheat.

“The whole thing is a sham.”

Watch it, pal. The Ron Paul Libertarian cabal will materialize to attack you. Don’t you understand - we MUST have drugs, EVERYWHERE.

Now go back to your cave and forget that little experience...you’re blowing it for everyone who’s bought into the medical MJ myth.

Ok?

Just because you think it so doesn't make it so. Endocannabinoid receptors mediate some types of pain among other duties. Enter endocannabinoid receptors and (epilepsy or seizures or seizure disorder) into PubMed's query box. You'll get 43 citations.

Marinol is prescribed all over the country for the nausea and vomiting during chemotherapy and wasting in AIDS. IIRC, it's also thought to be useful for multiple sclerosis and glaucoma. Enter endocannabinoid receptors and (glaucoma or multiple sclerosis) into PubMed's query box. You'll get 104 citations.

Dope smoking is a crime.

A very dumb crime when vomiting from chemotherapy prevents any medicine from going down the hatch.

LOL - it looks like the free-drug gang is out now. They’ve certainly worked a lot on trying to sound credible...they are getting better at it.

If you have a card/recommendation in many states, it isn’t. At least according to state law. I couldn’t care less about Federal law.

Whether you personally believe that the pepole getting the cards don’t actually need the card is totally irrelevant to that fact.
