On Wednesday, dozens of former addicts made the tough decision to share their stories publicly, doing so before news cameras and a standing-room only crowd. The admissions were not without irony. It was, after all, a federally prohibited drug, according to the patients who spoke, that freed them from their addictions to far more lethal--though legal--prescription narcotics.

    • "Marijuana use--which has put millions of Americans behind bars over the last seven decades--is now freeing Colorado's sick and dying from their addictions to xycontin, vicodin, morphine, and a multitude of other prescription drugs incredibly dangerous, addictive, and destructive when taken over long periods of time."

      Yup that's why big pharma spends so much money to keep marijuana illegal. those fucking bastards! Who cares about all the addicts and suffering they, along with the war on drugs/citizens, cause? As long big pharma gets their profits.

      My dad replaced his highly-addictive pain killers with medical marijuana and he is much better off for having done so. Suck it big pharma!
