If marijuana were treated the same as any other drug in the medical community, I would have no problem supporting it

Except then there would have to be actual data supporting the claims of "medical" marijuana.

For starters.

Then, I'd like to see how "medical" marijuana stacks up against the 10 to 20 existing FDA-approved drugs that have been on the market for the last 10 to 20 years.

People are talking about marijuana like it's some miracle drug that will do things no other drug can. So far, it seems to come in close to the bottom when compared to existing drugs. It's crap.
