You are correct that marijuana ABUSE is bad for people, but you are wrong if you think that marijuana use as a medical adjunct for many conditions constitutes ABUSE. It constitutes USE - you are talking apples and oranges. I don't care if you are a Doctor. You are wrong.

i don't agree with this. It sounds like it was wrote by a descendant of harry anslinger. I am not a doctor, I am not a scientist but I am a habitual cannabis smoker. I have been for a long time, much of my friends and family can say this also. We have never experienced (by experience i mean actually doing it not reading a report or statistic by some individual only looking for bad, finding it and exaggerated) these outlandish health effects you claim the plant causes to out body I have never seen and I am far from convinced I will see. Further more if you do not wan't to smoke it we do not care! so return the favor and stop locking us in cages just because it is something you don't like to do. it has become a prejudice, just look at the reference to puff the magic dragon at the start of the article. This individual take's this about as seriously as our Nobel prize winning president who laugh's of people having their natural rights' taken away. We can't control where the government sends their military or how much debt they create but I can control what I do and as long as what I do does nothing to harm another human being I see to reason to be punished for it. a vote means very little against an executive order and the government has proven time and time again they do what they want when they want, need i bring up conscription only a few major world conflicts ago. I really hope some people do their homework before putting your faith in anything your read none the less this article.

You have no concrete facts. The points that you made were from a report done in the 80s by Tue Reagan administration. Modern science have discounted much of the non sense claims you just posted. It has also added that marijuana can prevent alzheimers and PTSD. All studdies show alcohol to be immensely less harmful then the two drugs we have legalized. You should educate yourself more before basing your opinion on lies and rhetoric. It makes people like me feel like you would rather watch American Idol then be informed.
