And many agree with me, as do many States.
Libertarians like yourself mistakenly believe that your assumed licence to do just about anything you want to do in no way impacts the safety and well being of others.
My profession for the past 36 years has been focused in pharmaceutical development.
I have no problem with classifying THC as a Schedule 2 drug as a refined and qualified active drug substance extracted and purified from well defined crops of cannabis or as synthesized and purified in a lab, which is presented in a well defined dosage form having been formally studied with clinically demonstrated end points and safety data at a defined dosage, and labeled dosage administration, safety precautions, and stated potency metrics -- approved for marketing by FDA like any other Schedule 2 drug is.
But that's not what you and other pot apologists are talking about. You are looking to make pot effectively an OTC product, with multiple varieties and uncertain quality metrics and variants with no well defined dosages corresponding with well-studied therapeutic outcomes.
With an under-educated public whose primary resource of information about this kind of thing is Hollywood and CNN smoking bongs on New Year's Eve, it is little wonder that some voters and their feckless politicians have bought into the lies about the wonders of raw pot of uncertain quality and purity, with incidental and at best epidemiological benefits, and rarely if ever overseen or as administered under the care of trained physicians.
Pot heads just wanna get high without regard for anyone else but themselves. Big money drug users buy politicians to give them the license at the State level to flout what is rightly illegal at the Federal level.
It's about time for Jeff Sessions to enforce the laws and lock up a few politicians in the dragnet while he's at it.
FReegards!
