That is very disturbing!!!
The supreme court looks like it is going to rule against Medical Marijuana on the grounds that possesion of marijuana is proof of participation in the enormous commercial market of recreational marijuana. They just can't imagine being able to differentiate between growing for personal use, by doctors orders, and growing for the commercial market. Possesing legally grown/purchased pot and illegaly grown/purchased pot.
They just can't view this in MEDICAL TERMS. They choose to focus entirely on the commercial illicit market, and the risk medical marijuana posses to their continued enforcement of illegal possesion/cultivation/sale.
The logic they are using is very similar to the DEA reasons for yanking the FAQ on pain relief. Nothing can stand in the way of the War on Drugs. Not even a bunch of terminally ill people trying to stay pain free until they die, or a bunch of chronically ill people just trying to improve their quality of life they have.
The people speak, the state acknowledges, the Federal governmnet intervenes. 5 say no, 2 don't care, 1 is dying, and 1 is waiting to see how the dying one votes. Looks like a 7-2 vote against, with potentially a 9-0 vote against. Even the liberal judges are against it!!! THE SUPREME COURT THINKS STOPPING ADULTS FROM POSSESING POT IS MORE IMPORTANT THEN KEEPING SICK PEOPLE ALIVE and COMFORTABLE. THE DEA WOULD RATHER LET PEOPLE DIE/LIVE IN CHRONIC PAIN THEN TO HAVE THE POSSIBILITY OF A FORMER HEROIN ATTACK GETTING ACCESS TO LEGAL JUNK ON HIS DEATH BED.
EVEN the Cheif Justice likes his Diluadid.
