Where I live it's decriminalized (less than an ounce is equivalent to a speeding ticket) and medically available. My friend's mother has a medical card for it, and my friend is her registered grower. I've been considering getting my card, to help with chronic back pain.
Furthermore, if a person in Oregon smokes marijuana for medical reasons, and is cited or charged for possession, they can fight the citation or charges by applying for a card, and if the card is awarded, the citation or charges are dropped.
I fully support medical marijuana, and fully support the decriminalization of marijuana for recreational use. If the government wishes to regulate the smoking of marijuana, I wish they would take the same tack as the Dutch government, and control where it is sold and by whom.
