Open Minds; Booze Harms Far More Than Pot!

It seems to me the debate over the medical use is grounded in closed-mindedness. The fact that a drug is used both socially and recreationally does not mean it may not also have medical applications.
Alcohol, also used in social and recreational settings, is believed by many in the medical profession to have medical benefits. My father, who hates the taste of alcohol, has been directed by his physician to consume one glass of red wine daily, for possible beneficial effects to his heart. We need to take the time to really think about how we feel about reforming our current marijuana laws!

Fybromyalgia and Chronic Pain Synddrome
Hello there :-) Every medical institution seems to be encouraging those of us who are unfortunate enough to suffer from rheumatic and arthiritic canditions in their various forms, yet its use is a crime. Why is it that the obvous reason is so that a vast network of corruption can continue to exist and they they have no reason to help people who are in pain? It is awfull that nobody has the strength question their right to tell about 35%-40% of the population how to live their lives.
