Pretty much, once you get past the fact that our opinion is backed by scientific facts.

Which you never stated ever... ROFL.

the sad thing i have found is that ( with Exceptions to a few ) that anyone who was taught is is bad doesn’t know the major benefits, where as pot smokers have usually done there research. Now if someone has done there research and knows what there getting them self’s into than I do not believe that the government has any right to step in to the middle and tell us what to do.

black_wing_angel I am also from Missouri, blue springs to be exact and I do beleve that you can get a 420 card for medical purposes. I don’t know if you can use this info but I might as well put it out there. J

Ether way my vote is yes I want it legal

Good to meet a fellow Missourian, and glad to hear your opinion.

Also, I'm not surprised that Missouri (probably) allows for medical marijuana. All states should, really.

Yeah, at a certain point 'it could cause cancer and mild retardation' takes a backseat to 'my bones are liquid fire'.

Actually, there is a federal medicinal marijuana program. There's something like five people who qualify (one of whom has 'bones of liquid fire' as an actual level of pain), and once a month they get a five-gallon tin of joints. AFAIK, the federal program is not accepting any new applicants, and will effectively shut down when the current subscribers kick it.

As it should. Besides, "ITT CAWZEZ KANSUR!" hasn't exactly done any damage to the tobacco industry, so that becomes a moot point, anyway.

******** 'em. They're not in enough pain to qualify. Weed be bad, yo.

ETA: Ah, here's the skinny... "the George H.W. Bush administration closed it [the Compassionate Investigational New Drug program] to new applicants in March 1992, but continued supplying federal marijuana to those already receiving it. Four of those patients survive today." Wikipedia says five, but parts of the article are dated from three years ago, so one probably died in that time.

The one I was referring to was Irvin Rosenfeld.

Quote:

Rosenfeld has the disease Multiple Congenital Cartilaginous Exostoses, a painful disorder which causes bone tumors to form at the joints, stretching the surrounding tendons and veins, making movement almost impossible. Rosenfeld has had 30 tumors removed in six operations. He still has 200 tumors, some too small to remove, yet in the 30 years he has been smoking marijuana, he says, he has not had a new tumor.

He receives eleven cured ounces (440 joints) every 3 weeks, and has for 27 years.

Point is, if the government really does think that pot is a horrible terrible thing that's going to kill you, that means they're giving these five men and women drugs that WILL KILL THEM, and they have not been convicted of any crime.

Meet Your Mistress

The secret source of Humor itself is not joy but sorrow.

Legalization can be good or bad depending on the context your country/state is in.

I live in Uruguay, and government is rolled into an eight-year long debate about legalizing pot.

I´m strongly against it, because if it is successful, we would become THE legal provider of drugs to the rest of Latin America´s drug dealers; which would bring all the violence related to drug wars that actually exists in the northern part of South America (for example, Colombia) If all the countries in Latin America legalize pot, then I can approve it. In the meantime, I say no.

Also, our society (my country´s) is sadly rotting, losing its core values. If we give free drugs to the worst part of our population, then it will be all lost for us.

There is no humor in heaven. Mark Twain

An interesting concern. I wonder if that would happen to the US? I doubt the gangs would be any worse than they are now, though.

At least they wouldn't be on OUR streets, though. ninja  

[black_wing_angel]

If marijuana were universally legal, then a fair chunk of the violent crimes centered around drugs, would vanish, as marijuana is among the most heavily sought after illegal substance.

It's the safest thing out there, and legalizing it would take a chunk out of the crime industry. I say that's at least worth a shot.
