^^^^^
How nice finn you support a tyrant, who would even deny it for those who use it for medicinal purposes as a safer alternative! Color me suprised!

I suppose you would support the following story as well (and you can GOOGLE it because I'm not doing your job for you).... I saw this on our local news in the morning a week or so ago. An Iowa man with terminal cancer was facing life in prison for growing 71 cannabis plants. He was using the plants to extract the oil which is said to help with cancer. His son and wife were also facing prison time too for their involvement. Prior to the sentencing he was NOT allowed to reference his illness and use it as his defense. At any rate at his sentencing he told the judge why he was growing the plants, and said had he not done so to utilize the plants for the oil, he would have been dead already. The judge, instead gave he, his wife, and son probation, instead of prison sentences. He is appealing, and now due to his state's ridiculous law is being forced to looking at relocating to Oregon to obtain it legally! While I commend the judge for being lenient, and only slapping him with probation, I still find it ludicrous that it came to this guy potentially spending the rest of his life dying from a terminal illness because of our GOD DAMNED CANNABIS LAWS!!!!

No it did not, I've already supplied links with factual data that you ignored and blew off

fix you're needle its stuck in the groove again.. more bs propaganda spinning round and round.. could you tell me where is all the organized crime associated with alcohol after it was legalized??? same applies to pot , if it is legalized in all 50 states 99 percent of the crime will go the way of the dodo bird just like it did with alcohol..

Hey cruxan, I'm a firm believer in legalization of cannabis, and a firm supporter of the 2nd Amendment, LOL! At any rate, places like Saudi Arabia are about as a**backward as you can get! I certainly hope we would never try to emulate that country, or any like it.

believe me its not the pot heads destroying America, its the politicians.. did alcohol a way more potent and dangerous drug destroy America when it was legalized??? sure some will abuse pot and booze and other drugs but they are the minority..

The politicians (on both sides of the aisle) as well as the banksters, and the rest of their corporate cronies who grease their palms.
