Re: Propose Pilot Pot Program Perhaps?
Why not a pilot program with one drug to judge the effect?
Marijuana
I agree. Have felt adamently so for a while now.
Here's just a quick piece with regards to medicinal marijuana that piqued my interest and I couldn't refrain from posting. Marijuana (also known as Cannabis, Ma, or Ganja) | Drug Policy Facts
The piece is from Francis Young, former DEA's Administrative Law Judge, 1988. I know...a little way's back. And no, this is not a jest at you or other posters' who probably believe 1988 was not "a little way's back".
In strict medical terms marijuana is far safer than many foods we commonly consume. For example, eating 10 raw potatoes can result in a toxic response. By comparison, it is physically impossible to eat enough marijuana to induce death. Marijuana in its natural form is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man. By any measure of rational analysis marijuana can be safely used within the supervised routine of medical care.
