A medecine for symtoms not the illness.

Now all serious medical marijuana advocates must see that weed is really effective at providing releif from sytoms of something a lot more serious but does not fight the actual desease.and i personally think this is why marijuana will never be fully recognised as a 'pucker' medecine. although it's effects releivin nausia with cancer patients in theorpy. Also the the positive reseach with MS victims and its responce to there symptoms. Plus many other positive medical uses should be enough to see this egalised world wide on a medical level. Although it is not the miracle cure that some people seem to imply.

Well, simple pain relievers like advil and tylonol don't cure anything, they just relieve a symptom, that symptom of course being pain, and these are perfectly legal, and then theirs the opiate pain relievers like oxycotine, hydrocodone and such, these also only relieve pain, not cure disease and they are FAR more dnagerous and adictive than pot, but they are perfectly legal. It is already legal here in a number of states for medicinal use anyway. I am predicting nearly all states here will be this way with in 10 years or less, I will even go as far as to say the federal decriminlization with in this time period and out right legalisation in a number of states, the first will probably be California, followed by Vermont.
