You are 100% correct. I am a medical marijuana patient in the state of California. My family uses medicinal marijuana for many things. I use marijuana to control my epilepsy in place of terrible pharmaceuticals such a depakote. My mom (Recently diagnosed with Type B Lymphoma) uses a special high CBD tincture to help relieve the nausea and pain associated with Chemotherapy, and my Father uses a topical ointment that relieves his arthritis hugely. I'm sayin this because my parents are NOT drug users and never have been.
I live on a Vineyard and always have. My Dad runs a winery on our property, and my parents are very responsible people who are total wine connoisseurs. They did not use any marijuana ever up until I started to show my dad its medicinal effects. My dad now finds the same sort of interest in Medical Marijuana to help my mom as he does in growing grapes and making wine. Medical marijuana is an amazing tool in the right hands and I just wish every state would fully legalize it. Yes, the MMJ program is abused, and thats why it needs to be legalized.
Anyways, Huck, your infinite wisdom always seems to amaze.
