Fake news!

Cannabis is helping millions with chronic pain daily & nothing you ever say or do in your life will ever change that, raider. Just as nothing you will ever do or say will change the fact that using cannabis medicinally allowed me to get healthy again, free of crippling depression & anxiety.

It’s true that it’s still illegal under federal law but thankfully President Trump has given support to new laws supposedly under consideration that will correct error.

Federal drug laws are blatantly unconstitutional. The 10th amendment limits the Federal Government’s power to those things specified in the constitution. This is why there had to be an amendment for the Federal government to enact prohibition.

You can say the same thing about opium and all of its derivatives. Whats your point?

You may very well be correct about the cure aspect of MJ but you would be dead wrong about it’s medical use.

One of my friends son who is 21 suffers from terrible seizures, so bad in fact that last year when he came up for vacation he had an attack that put him out of commission for 3 days. Now when he comes up to visit it is made sure he has dabs(dirivitive of MJ) waiting for him just like he has in Florida.

I believe his life would be hell without the dabs.

Why is it that medical pot does get subjected to the same FDA clinical trials that all other medical drugs are forced to? If medical pot has any real value it should be able to be proved scientifically. That include the side affects and potential risks, just like any other medicines. When something like this somehow escapes proper scientific scrutiny there is something else afoot.

I have a friend that I just found out got on a medical pot program. The specific chemicals were extracted from the pot and they are inhaled via a vape type device. She claims it works to control pain, just like the many other treatments that she tried at first. I will wait and see if it does in the long run. I suspect not for the simple reason that if a pain killer hides the pain, you are more likely to damage the injury area worse until that injured area can’t be repaired. Pain is a warning that something is wrong. Masking it doesn’t really cure it.

Most drugs do not cure anything.

Novocain has never cured anything -- but try dental work without it.

The Prevacid I take for reflux doesn't cure it -- it keeps it under control one day at a time.

I do not partake of the MJ, but if the requirement to be a legitimate drug was that it cured something, more than half of the drugs we have today would be forbidden.
