I've seen, up close, the honest benefits of what medical marijuana provided to a long time friend who was dying of terminal cancer.
I'll say no more other than Ryan's right. Let the States decide for themselves. The Federal Government is too far "out of control" to understand a personal situation like death.
In fact, they're so far "out of control" America is now truly in jeopardy.
They’ll let you suicide yourself without a batted eye, but heaven help you if you have some weed to make your death or treatment easier.
For the purposes of this discussion I don’t even care about the merits of the issue. States decide what is a crime within their jurisdiction period.
Not really happy about this. I see this as a gateway to legalizing ALL pot use—and maybe even ALL drugs—in the future, which some do want to see. I’d rather go the OTHER way—and make ALL illegal drugs MUCH harder to get.
BUT..there are MUCH bigger “fish to fry” in this election. It will NOT change my, nor do I suspect many true conservatives, votes. And it WILL likely get a few, maybe even MORE than a few “independents” on the team too. A number of people I know, will NOT be unhappy about this one.
Like I said...MUCH bigger fish to fry than to worry about pot this round...
I’m with Paul on this too, but I’m thinking of taking the stigma away from the industrial use of basic hemp. Is there a more useful plant in God’s garden?
