12 states have passed laws allowing the use of MEDICAL MARIJUANA, is this not enough to have M moved to a differant listing on the drug schedule list.
What the hell.Enough already. Just a little rant, thanks for listening.I am sure you feel my pain:stoned::stoned::stoned:
IMO, just having it moved to a sched 2 is not enough. This is where cocaine and meth are listed. So it would be held in the same regard. It must be REMOVED from the list of controlled substances period plain and simple. I mean seriously, where is alcohol? Not on the list. I will not accept anyone telling me that cannabis should be considered more dangerous than alcohol. Keeping on the list of controlled substances is saying exactly that. Intolerable IMO.
I do feel your pain.
Kush, I read somewhere that if it was moved to schedule 3 it would be in the same catigory as asperin and tylinol. That could be good.
Could be, but I believe that not the last petition for resched, but the 1 before that a decision to deny took over 20 years, there is a petition from a former editor of High Times again, but I don't expect a decision on it anytime in the next decade lol. And then it's likely to be denied, again. Sched 3 would be better, but most activist groups that clammer about resched talk about it being moved to a sched 2, which pisses me off to no end. Why even make an attempt to put it on 2 you know? Doesn't make any sense to me..
To use a vague metaphor, it's like asking Hitler to only kill jews in Germany, and saying it's okay. Doesn't quite solve the problem in my eyes. It needs to be removed and then left up to the states to decide if they would legalize it.
Before it's reschedueled, or removed, we'll have to have the DEA/Surgeon General ect.. admit that it has SOME medicinal properties.. I doubt we'll be hearing that any time soon.
It doesn't need to have any medical benefit or use to be removed. Rescheduled yes, removed no. Hence tobacco. I don't care if the government wants to deny it's medical value or not as long as they allow all of us to use it, that's irrelevant. People that use it for medical purposes would be able to use it, and so would anyone else if they choose to. You know?:jointsmile:Quote:

Why marijuana is still illegal is beyond me, like Katt Williams says, aspirin is perfectly legal but you take 13 of those babies and it will be your last headache, No one has ever had died of an over dose of marijuana. And far as it being a drug, drugs you have to make, you have to put things together, it is not natural these chemicals don't grow in a garden. I am high, just finishing a joint, hope I am making sense. Legalize it already and help bring the economy back. :hippy:
But you know as well as I do that that isnt going to happen in our lifetime. Honestly, I was optimistic when Obama entered office, but I guess im starting to see him for who he really is, but thats not really the issue. What im trying to say is that I have no faith in our government to take this issue seriously and I have accepted the fact that I am a criminal. One day the people in charge will see the light, or atleast the ones in charge right now will be dead.Quote:
