Do you believe that marajuana should be legalized by the United States Federal Govt. for medicinal purposes?

Answer 1

YES!!! It helps a great many people, and I don't know why it hasn't been done yet.

Answer 2

No, because it's nowhere even close to being as effective as the dozen or so other glaucoma drugs on the market. Potheads just want it legalized because they want some recourse.

echothiphate, physostigmine, carbachol, pilocarpine, are just four off the top of my head which are much more effective than marijuana could ever be, and there are about 10 other on the market now.

there's no point in legalizing it for medicinal purposes, when we ALREADY have medicines that work BETTER than it

Answer 3

All POT HEADS believe that marijuana should be legalized by the United States Federal Govt. for medicinal purposes. They all have a condition called Dependency and need marijuana for the rest of their life!

Answer 4

Yes most definitely and the reason why I'm saying this is my husband is a marijuana user not for the purpose to get high but to relieve his pain he has been in pain for 15 years after 7 back operations he has been threw every kinda of pain pill you could name and nothing helps like his marijuana i guess until people are in the peoples shoes that no what pain is then maybe they will legalize it and the funny thing i always say damn why and the hec do they legalize alcohol i never here of people getting killed bye someone smoking marijuana but boy give someone a 5th of whiskey put him behind the wheel of his car and what the hell happens, laws are funny one day maybe someone will understand one day,

Answer 5

Yes, absolutely! These people don't want to get high, they want relief from the pain! And the people who are wanting to keep it illegal probably have never experienced the kind of pain these people, like cancer patients, go through or have known anyone who have. My mom died of cancer and they were giving her everything they could...morphine, oxycontin and nothing was easing her pain. Marajuana might have given her some relief and a more pleasant last few months of her life.

Answer 6

I think marijuana should be completely decriminalized. Think about all of the tax money we would save not paying police to pursue some stoner who's sitting on his mom's couch eating cheetos while he watches Spongebob Squarepants. Also, Marijuana is actually a whole hell of a lot more beneficial to your health than alcohol or tobacco, but those are legal.

Answer 7

Yes

Answer 8

It should have been legalized long ago. People have been useing it for medical purposes for ages .

Answer 9

Definitely...and I'd go one more step further and say just legalize it as a social drug. I don't see the difference between marijuana and the combination of drinking and smoking. Tax it like we tax cigarettes and collect some revenue (and add more severe punishments than DUI/DWI to boot).

Answer 10

My answer is best described here

I mean, come on...you're not thinking about the medicinal effects...you just want to be able to snitch some from grandma's medicine cabinet....

Answer 11

Absolutely, why deny cancer patient with pain and elderly people with glacoma proper medical treatment just because a product is also used illegally. This is just bone headed logic.
