PSP: Feds say marijuana has no medical purpose - Medical marijuana ruling (http://specials.msn.com/A-List/Lifestyle/Medical-marijuana-ruling.aspx?cp-documentid=29429076 - broken link)
Screw the federal government do they even have a clue what they are taking about. I think they are the dangerous drug and they are dangerous to liberty and have no concept of balancing a budget.

I asked for something factual, NOT merely your opinion which is all you've supplied.
I was talking about if pot was dangerous or not to people, which it isn't. I'm talking about frequest users and when they are actually high. Side effects are happiness, the munchies, sleepy, etc. The result of smoking and effects during smoking aren't dangerous. People don't get caught murdering someone while on pot, because pot doesn't control people into making bad mistakes.
And no, not everyone who smokes pot is nice and I'm not sure if pot could make someone 'nice'... makes you relaxed though. If you smoke a lot, there could be long term effects, but I wouldn't know... I'm not sure what you mean by "pot" being the result. Pot doesn't control someone though; man-made drugs can do that. If you have a negative mind set then you might have a bad experience with pot. Plus, you have to have self-control and good willpower if you don't want to trip while in public.
I was actually agreeing with you and trying to add a little humor.
There are already medications out there that safely do all of these things with minimal side effects.
You know, I could get more on board with this medical marijuana thing if it wasn't all just a front for people who want to use it recreationally.
And what's wrong with using it for recreation?
Why do you think the government should tell us what to eat, drink or smoke?
All drugs should be legal.
