They make marijuana pills that help people who are sick and losing weight.
The smoke while it my seem good ; cannot be good for you
When you consider how overcrowded the jails are, and how overburdened the legal system is, and then the number of people being jailed for Marijuana use. I would like to see it legalized.
I think the "War on Drugs" has wasted a lot of resources. People are going to make their own mistakes, its not the government responsibility to stop them. I'm libertarian on this.
rarely does someone get jailed for pot use, the ones doing time are the ones selling large amounts
Some 700,000 people every year arrested for marijuana-related crimes, and a great majority (over 80%) of these arrests are for possession only, not distribution.
It can be prescribed in pill form by a Dr. The potheads dont want to hear about it because they just want to smoke it they dont want it to help a sickness
thats TV , trust me I arrest alot of them, However I can only speak of my experience in TN
good call, its called Marinol it is a synthetic form of THC.

I'm glad to hear that.
I'm willing to listen to same arguement for people arrested for possession of small amounts of any drug.
Seems a waste to fill the prison and legal system with people who are abusing drugs. We don't have the resources, i.e. prisons, to house that many people.
I'm more concerned with identity theft, violent crime, etc. Those are the people I want behind bars and for their full sentence. Not recreational drug users.
Which is why most so-called supporters of medical reefer have no credibility. If they would just come out and say they want to smoke weed on the weekends, then they would at least get my respect. But to demagogue and hide their agenda behind HIV/AIDS patients and cancer victims is where I have a problem.

You're being delusional if you don't think that most (notice I didn't say all, but most) of these guys are just hiding behind patients in order to promote their recreational weekend habits. If you gathered 20 pot smokers in a room and asked them if they support legalizing reefer, I guarantee you at least 14 out of 20 would have glaucoma/cancer/HIV as a defense for legalizing, not recreational use. We all know deep down that the majority of pot smokers that are out in front on this issue are really being disengenious.Again, totally false.
