Ah... fly's ass. I've missed it.
This has always been a hard one for me. The kids I work with use Marinol frequently to control their nausea and chemo side effects. I know that the unaltered chemicals in marijuana could also assist with coping and the emotional trauma that goes along with cancer, glaucoma, etc. The problem is that there's always going to be some idiot that slips something into the general supply that is going to cause the government to say, "SEE?! We told you we needed to regulate it!" And the fact is, they're probably right in that respect. There's rat poison in dog food... who's to say that some asshole isn't going to decide to expedite the deaths of chronically ill people by slipping in some other nastiness? Yes, I think it should be available to sick people. Yes, I think it should be generally available. But, that's me. And to make it generally available, someone is going to have to monitor the f*cktards that may try to pass off their inferior/unclean product.
