Conservatives are not ones to doubt Readers Digest.

Inappropriate laughter within or without an authoritarian group is ten times more violence-triggering than any type of F-bomb.

Laughter is perceived by paranoid amygdalans as an indication of disrespect for their authority.

They feel that if they are so disciplined as to not laugh at themselves, then they damn sure aren't about to allow others to laugh at them.

It's always "me first" with those guys.

It is only hoped that someone who is sick or terminally ill be allowed the risk of offending, even if the laughter is inappropriate.

You shouldn't need a license to laugh.

I think it is a form of free speech protected by the Constitution.

Weed doesn't laugh, smokers do.

DEA allows big pharma to grow pot

If you're not a big corporation, you're nothing!

There are big persons, and there are little persons under the law.

Where are my equal rights?

^^Agreed.

Hopefully that changes soon. I can't wait for all of those politicians to be fired and shamed by the people. Both sides are fed up with their leaders.

If pot gets rid of nausea - it has a medical purpose. If it separates you from and unpleasant reality for a time..it has a medical purpose...If it increases your appetite it has a medical purpose...I don't understand how they believe a sedative such as Valium has a medical purpose but pot does not...I am not big on pot and really have no personal use for it BUT.......Having been a smoker I saw it's useful qualities ...and how it hinders well being and general health...

It makes me sick how government will allow the most insidious substances to be legal and prescribed and will attempt to suppress pot use...One of the reasons the status quo does not like pot is because some people who smoke simply will not comply to the norm..that profits an elite.

There are some alcoholics who have had problems with booze..that turn to smoking pot....The gov does not like that...it conflicts with the profits of their corporate friends. Here in Canada they are experimenting...I heard that those who have prescriptions for medical pot pay little for their "medicine" Recently the government has quietly added a TAX to the product...This is always the problem regarding government and pot...HOW to tax it...apparently the Canadian authorities are slowly figuring out a way to utilize this potential revenue tool.
