Canadians receiving "medical marijuana" complain "It's not strong enough".

Cannabis has been used medicinally for thousands of years.

How many of those years was it "cut" with cocaine, fentanyl, or formaldehyde? Police just made a bust of street sales of marijuana laced with fentanyl in Brockton, Massachusetts. Also, Bismark, ND.

People without the discipline to abstain from artificial "highs" will fall victim to Darwin's Law. Those people appear to be "Progressives", and their proclivity to escape Reality guarantees poor outcomes.

Are you saying that MJ sold through the dispensaries is being adulterated? That’s news to me. More than likely it’s black market trash subject to no kind of quality control, which is one of the more persuasive arguments for legalization.

Don’t get me wrong: I’m not a fan of recreational use and very skeptical of the alleged medical benefits. But I’m even less of a fan of using courts and jails to prevent people from engaging in their own folly. And I think its a nonissue at this point: enough states with enough population have already legalized it to make the ongoing debate irrelevant.

I believe that’s a recent phenomena & really irrelevant to this thread. Criminals are also putting fentenyl into heroin & anything else they think will make them more $$$.

Just because criminals want to create more customers doesn’t mean the rest of us shouldn’t have access to the medicine we need.
