    You are obviously not up to speed on the facts... You definitely don't know the medical uses for marijuana... I Haven't yet seen proof that smoking and driving impairs you to the extend on what the "Sloppy Drunks" do...

    Did you know:

    marijuana helps people with eye disease called glaucoma... it also helps people with cancer such as what Montel the show host has... It also helps people who have trouble concentrating, to better focus as they tried to say Ritalin helps (which it don't)... It also helps people who have eating problems, to eat... It also helps people with sleeping disorders to sleep... It helps people with arthritis... Also you can make food and products from it, can you make products from beer? no... Studies have been proven that medical marijuana can be regulated at a federal level, yet drinking beer can't...

    the down side to marijuana is that it is expensive and if federal regulations have their way could go higher...

  3. 1116-Please get your facts straight if you're going to rep for the medical marijuana. Montel has MS, not cancer.

    I'm a supporter of medical marijuana, I'd much rather see someone have to use a vaporizer than an opiate to alleviate their pain. Personally, I want it to be decriminalized, rather than legalized. I don't see the reasoning behind another avenue for increasing gov't revenues(taxes).

  4. To anon 11:16 I've smoked it when I was younger and it definitly impares you or I wouldn't have done it. I think you may have smoked a little to much.
