The government still claims that there are no medical uses for marijuana even though there are medical studies and information (12,076 studies in all as of 22 Oct. 2009) archived by the U.S. Library of Medicine and the National Institute of Health. Try a search for cannabinoid.

I have been told that when a story starts with the words, "I was born...", ya knew you were in trouble, so... here is me.
I was born in 1955, in a medium sized city in West Virginia. This is where I lived until I joined the military in 1975. This is also where, at the age of 15, I started toking.
My military career was spent keeping my front in place... work hard and play hard. I was deeply "in the closet" for the entire 20 years, with one exception.
I successfully steered a US Naval vessel to pay for a "party"... 'nuff said.
I was married for a while (24 years) and raised 4 children after a divorce through their teenage years, successfully.
I have 5 kids. Two of them nurses or nurses to be. Two of them are US Marines. The other one is a US Soldier.
I also have 11 grandchildren.
Other than my 20 years in the military, I am a musician (Jazz/Blues) playing sax and violin (sex & violence), photographer, poet, writer, farmer, beer brewer, chandler, mead maker, carpenter, did some work in the adult entertainment industry for 6 years, daddy and grampa. I now live off the land in Northwestern Minnesota and in my spare time I fight for cannabis legalization.

The wrap up, with an interesting point of view from a female conservative, of a week of High Noon on fox business. Slowly but surely we are opening up the minds of many.
he does look so frowny-faced sad awww. Maybe we should ask him if he wants to smoke a blunt with us after work and include him in our super friends club ;)
we know the truth. Gil knows to he is just at a loss of words they have none left. yes we cannabis
We should petition to have the FDA evaluate marijuana as a medicine once and for all. They always fall back on that it hasnt been evaluated by the FDA but the government wont allow it to be.
You’ve got a point.
And since the government’s preventing us from competing against the cartels and eliminating their marijuana incomes they are responsible for the murders the cartels are committing to protect that income.
Can we sue?
If the government really believes there’s no medical use then why are they forcing taxpayers to fund the compassionate use program?
Can we sue?
I want him to talk to my mom and see what she says about marijuana. She first hand has seen how the ridiculous laws effect user in more ways than so called addiction problems.
Gil is a DOUCHE. How else can I say it, and I hope the dope reads this. No one believes this reefer madness anymore. Teh gubernment regulates the big pharma, and they also take a substantial amount back from the lobbyists. Seriously, how does Gil wake up everyday knowing that he’s the one pushing verbal dope to the public with his lies. He’s bound by law to not push any form of legalization. I’ll say one good thing, at least he’s consistent. We always know what we’re getting with idiots like him.
She called his ass out on his past opinions. NOW all of the sudden they want people to come back and talk more about this?!?! MSM is so two faced.
I don’t see how they can claim that there is no medical use when the government itself has been dispensing medical cannabis for years.

I’ve heard that there’s a natural medication which can cure that condition.
