I love how people talk about other, more effective painkillers. You mean like morphine? Yeah, that's just fine. But don't give them marijuana. That's a gateway drug. It could lead to harder drugs, like morphine.

that's funny the way you say it, but there's clearly a problem with people's basic understanding of morality.
That its somehow moral to have society penalize use of a substance, yet allow that use if you've paid a doctor who prescribes it. I don't think there is such a distinction.
Like the guy who supposedly forged prescriptions for oxycodone in florida, who really had a legitimate need for the drug. Now he's doing a mandatory minimum 20year sentence and has the prison supply him wiht the very drug he is accused of diverting.
Crazy... People have the right to ingest whatever they want, being sick doesn't legitimize this principle, nor does finding a doctor who will endorse it subject to your payment.

> People have the right to ingest whatever they want
Exactly. Who am I to tell you what you can or cannot put into your body? And for those (Romney) that think drug use is a scurge on society, I say handle it on a case by case basis when there is a problem rather than stereotyping.

and alcoholism ISNT a scourge?
by no means stop the booze, im just saying if drugs are a problem then so is alcohol, and i bet my left eye that he wouldnt even dream of prohibition.
i say the only reason that they are a scourge is because they are illegal. the only problems come from people bringing them illegally into the us, or manufacturing/selling them. people will do drugs no matter what, so it makes sense to legalize them and regulate them so at least they might be such a problem.

They do? That doesn't sound like any Dems I know. Got a link?
Well, that nice Mr. Seuss did your homework for you and pulled up the stances of 8 Dem candidates. Though they are mostly flopping like endangered porpoises at low tide only one mentions states rights at all and she insists on more research. Once again, you lie.

Which was a lot more than the "reference challenged" could come up with. Which is pretty amazing given how easy it is these days to back your shit up. Oh wait, I forgot, it's impossible to back your shit up if it's totally nonsense. My bad.
