I'm all for it!
There are medicines that don't kill pain as pot does, and I know this as a fact. I have had over 20 major surgeries,and have learned what works.
Yes, there are many pain products on the market. Pills, liquids, capsules...All taken by mouth, suppository, or needle.
They affect your organs, and some make you dreadfully ill. They put you to sleep, or wire you up. Some are way to easy to get addicte to also.
With pot as my pain reliever, I can still function on my job, and take care of my home and family, as well as my pets.
I couldn't do that on 6-8 Vicoden a day!

I'm all for it too.
I know it can help. It helps me sleep.
my grandma used to smoke it for her pains.
my mom uses it for hers too sometimes because pain killers just don't do a thing to her.
someday it will be. DID YOU KNOW IT IS LEGAL IN DENVER?
i just found that out a few days ago from some video on youtube. I wanna take a road-trip there

Might I suggest checking in to that a bit more before planning your road trip. Check into city laws for Denver before getting yourself into an extended vacation.

I guess we are on the same page on that one!! Not only that but I've been to Denver and let me tell you- stay clear! That is one of the most bass-akwards city I've every had the 'pleasure' of visiting. It's beautiful from the northern area, coming down from Cheyenne, over the hill and the city is laid out in front of you backed by the Rockies. Beautiful. Then you get closer and see it for what it is.
No offense to all you Coloradans, you have some wonderful sights, I'm just glad I live in Oregon.

Pot may work for you and many others, but keep in mind that as potent and efficient as this, adverse effects are evident. Should it be legalized? I don't think so until extensive research has to be done in order to conclude the allegation that surrounds it. I have seen many cases of young men smoking pot and drastically they start behaving antisocial and I believe that smoking Pot is the aetiology. Also I have known of many case were people have been diagnosed with Cannabis psychosis and they don't have any family history of mental illness.

I don't have a problem with it as long as there are control on it's used. It should be treated as a prescription medicines. Any other used of the pot except for medical purposes is detrimental to health and safety of others. Just like any other substance it will be subject to abuse once legalize but I think it will do more good than harm if it is legalize. Producing it might be another issue, since it is already legalize, anybody can't plant the weed. There should be a control on this too and I think everything will be ok.

Im all for legalization and I'm not really sure why the government isnt. They could make tons of money off of it as well as monitor the potency, and with the attention of the law focused elsewhere they might be able to fight some real crime!
