It will call attention to the law of the land that has no exceptions for using illegal drugs. There are none and there should be none in my opinion. Marijuana does no more for a sickness than a shot of cheap whiskey. Never cured a single ailment.
Rohrabacher is a pot head. I was pretty sure of that but now there is no further question. They are coming out from under their rocks.
I was worried Session would focus on trivial things like Treason and Sedition.
It increases appetite in those people dying of cancer and/ or on chemotherapy for same.
You couldn't possibly be more wrong.
Liver Cancer and Pancreatic Cancer patients use marijuana to ease the effects of Chemotherapy and stimulate appetite so they can actually eat and keep food down.
Seen that first hand: my Godmother who passed from liver cancer and my sister in law who passed from pancreatic cancer.
I don't do drugs, I barely drink alcohol and I don't smoke cigarettes. I personally see nothing wrong with medical marijuana and consider it to be compassionate for those dying of cancer.
You are wrong! A conservative, Christian, nurse and a dear friend used it to help her eat when she was battling colon cancer. It was the only thing that helped. She liked one that didn’t make her stoned.
I know of others that are having success with controlling seizure’s without side effects like other medication. There still needs to be more research in this area.
There’s also research in it helping spasms from movement disorders.
Serious ignorance espoused here.
“Never cured a single ailment.”
It’s not supposed to...it’s to relieve pain. Just hope you are never screaming for something...anything...to help you out.
....and you just made the case for legalization.
That misses the point. There’s hundreds of different chemicals in pot. We don’t understand them. The oils have been shown to help epilepsy, I believe it is beyond statistical noise...people swear by it - including the parents of kids having the problem. It doesn’t mean they get high - but to put a halt to related science isn’t a good idea.
But are those laws legitimate? The Constitution had to be amended to allow prohibition of alcohol… what analogous amendment exists for the War on Drugs?
Marijuana does no more for a sickness than a shot of cheap whiskey. Never cured a single ailment.
Apparently you've never had a bad case of strep-throat. I had it so bad that I almost couldn't swallow because of the pain, a bit of whiskey first allowed me to actually drink water.
Cured, perhaps not, but there certainly are those who benefit by using it medicinally.
But those who went the extra mile to legalize it for recreational usage are the ones really to blame here for creating issues now with medical marijuana usage.
An utterly meaningless point.
The vast majority of medications, both Rx and OTC, do not cure anything.
Glaucoma for you! Drug nazi!
What unsubstantiated nonsense
Even drug warriors admit pot use for chemo nausea and appetite and glaucoma and acute seizure syndrome in children and pain relief enhancement in conjunction with other pain meds
It’s free republic though
You can say about anything except racism or anti semitism
So fire away
Btw your precious booze....now that is a national problem,
I’ve had destructive selfish drunks in my family
I’ll take a couch locked Spicolli any day
You got it back asswards
