Foxglove is toxic if not prepared properly to be used as medicine.
Marijuana needs no preparation and it is non-toxic.
You've already admitted that marijuana contains substances that can be used as medicine, conceeding the point that marijuana can also be used as medicine.
Do you still have a problem with marijuana being used as medicine to give sick people comfort and to prevent blindness from glaucoma, to say the least?
Admit? HA! This pill will only see white women having sex with colored jazz musicians!
And you've now admitted that foxglove is toxic, in contrast to your earlier post that "plants work as well as the extract".
Not true for foxglove and not true for marijuana.
"Do you still have a problem with marijuana being used as medicine to give sick people comfort ..."
I've never had a problem with that. That's their choice. My problem is with those who want the rest of us to legalize that activity.
"... and to prevent blindness from glaucoma, to say the least?"
Marijuana may actually damage the optic nerve. Plus, the patient would have to be high 24hrs/day to properly treat glaucoma with marijuana.
I'm going to side with the AMA, the National Institutes of Health Report, The National Eye Institute, and the American Academy of Ophthalmology and go against smoked marijuana as medicine for glaucoma.
I have glaucoma. If the only treatment available was pot, you betcha I'd be smoking it....legal or not.
