Ask the DEA to tell me if marijuana is harmful and wasnt proven to have any benefits, why is our government supplying a limited number of patients with it?
orangeman Reviewed by orangeman on . What the DEA says... The DEA Position On Marijuana The campaign to legitimize what is called "medical" marijuana is based on two propositions: that science views marijuana as medicine, and that DEA targets sick and dying people using the drug. Neither proposition is true. Smoked marijuana has not withstood the rigors of science â?? it is not medicine and it is not safe. DEA targets criminals engaged in cultivation and trafficking, not the sick and dying. No state has legalized the trafficking of marijuana, Rating: 5
