Should smoking marijuana be a medical option?

Hey Lirybka some people have additive personalities and will be addicted to drinking water, Marijuana is not habit forming, I have smoked Butts and Mother nature. It took me years to quit Butts but Mother nature is no problem and I don't have a craving for it or higher things like Coke, Hairline, etc.

Hi. Concentrated cannabis hemp oil (Indian hemp, ganja, dagga, marijuana) can cure cancer and many other serious illnesses. Please watch Rick Simpson's "Run from the Cure" at www.phoenixtearsmovie.com. Please read my book "The Emperor Wears No Clothes" online free at www.jackherer.com. It is all about the history and many uses of cannabis hemp. We can end hunger, cure cancer and reverse the Greenhouse Effect with cannabis hemp!

You cannot have a physical addiction to cannabis, however you can develop a habit around it. There are, after all, rituals that are intrinsic to smoking cannabis.

However, there are also many other ways to get the medicine into the body besides smoking it, and I think that if cannabis is going to have a mainstream future, those other ways need to be exploited and developed quickly.

It can be that there are people that don't fall so easily into the trap of addiction but you know this is the exception.

I have a right to relief from my suffering on a daily bases.Some of you kids where not alive before all this just say no crap. I remember decriminalization and there where not all of these fabricated problems that they try to scare the public with. Most parents that are against it drink till there hearts content just for a good time and i can t get relief from cancer effects because some one might catch a buzz, please that's absurd. I have one word compassion. Get some.

Smoking marijuana should be a lunch break option.

I live in Greensboro, NC, and I do not approve this message.

I don't think that even such fact is a reason for legalizing cannabis. Marihuana is NOT good it creates addiction.

It is very simple, Mother Nature should be legal for anyone anytime, no if's and's or but's.

I am personally for the "decriminalization" of marijuana and wouldnt mind it being legalized, but there has to be a realistic outlook on the situation. The government will not let this happen untill they can figure out a way to maximize profits.. idk the amount of money they pull in every year from marijuana related offenses but im assuring you all its at least millions. Do you think they would let themselves lose millions? if you do your way too high haha!!! The problem that i see that our govenrment is most likely going to have is if they "Decriminalize it" then they will have to find a way to generate the money they were making on it as an illegal substance...and if they try to seek to much money from taxes on it or however they try to manipulate the situation, then no one will buy from them and it will be back to a black market drug which in turn will cause them to make it illegal again due to the loss of money. Its all about money it always has been and always will be. How many people die from alchohlic drinks or related incidents per year? a TON.. but they make so much money on selling it ... taxing it... the medical bills, liscense reinstatement fees, court cost etc etc they will never make drinking illegal they have already found there way to manipulate every sector of business from it. and untill they can do the same with pot it will always just be a debate and a lost hope. The people of this country who do smoke it are too affraid to all stand up together and demand there voices be heard for fear of losing jobs or reputation, w/e they fear the fear is there. either find a way to make eveyone not affraid to stand up for what they believe in or find a way for the government to make billions.. if you can do either of those in no time it will be at your local wal mart packaged and coupons will come in the sunday paper for it.

As part of a strong Marijuana opposition I take, I do think Marijuana should be allowed to those only under High pain and then, this person would need to lose some of it's privacy by putting a note on the driver license saying the person could be under the influence and should not drive.

Any one pronounced terminal should by law be able to get whatever the hell they want. I have seen to many people drugged unconscious because they have nothing left to defer the pain but the really strong narcotics.

Those who don't believe in euthanasia would be surprised to learn that it happens hundreds of times a day in the name of "pain control." "All we can do now is just keep them comfortable." That is a line told over and over to families everyday. What it means is, "we are going to give pain meds to keep your loved one under until it kills them."

True, my hand before God.

If you can't trust your own doctor, who can you trust? The government? Doctors have the authority to prescribe, at their discretion, drugs that are addictive as well as those whos side affects can be worse than the disease. They can't subscribe a non-addictive drug simply because it's so popular to smoke it? That passes belief. Our doctors should be insulted by this. Who are politicans to tell them what's best for their patient? Limit the tools they can use to do the best they can for those in their care?

Yes We Cannabis!!

blaze on

peace-in

YES WE CAN

It is ludicrous that alcohol, addictive and a killer of thousands of Amercan's be legal, when medical pot can not only allow a quality of life from those going through chemo or chronic pain, while replacing what the docs now give like addicitive, organ affecting forms of hydrocodone and morphine.

Another star of stupidity on the goverment and it's members. Legalize medical pot, and give life a chance.

do the math. the evidence is available for anyone willing to look beyond the smoke screen puffed by major pharmaceutical and tobacco companies years of propaganda...

lets see... tobacco: lethal killer

weed: every thing thats good in the world runs through your brain, blocking bad memorys and painfull body parts. not to mention glycoma and that one where people just dont want to eat.
it deffinitly takes care of that last one!lol

medical option??? it should be an option for anyone over 18/21 who wants to smoke it. I shouldnt need to get some illness in order to get high.
