I am the producer of The NORML Network, the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog, and NORML's Outreach Coordinator. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" and I travel across the country to educate people on marijuana reform. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to give voice to the Marijuana Nation and to speak for those who can't speak up.

    Iowa Doctors can keep you doped up on whatever pain pill they want to give you regardless of the side effects. I am a paralyzed and suffer from pain in back and legs as well as spacisity from this injury. I am on like 5 different pills which counteract each other and all of them are class drugs, which without a prescription are ILLEGAL. Iowa is so far behind times in everything, but yet are said to be most intellectual, well use your intellegence to figure out what other states have deemed medicinal values of marijuana and pass the bills required, after all you legalize alcohol and tobbacco which we both know kills. HIPOCRITES in this state and the legislation backs all of it, open your eyes and realize there is people whom could benefit from what god put on this earth, not something concocted by man.

    “A ‘practitioner’ can be a veterinarian,” Bartz said. “You could take Fido to the vet and say, ‘By the way Doc, I need some medical marijuana.’ ”

    as opposed to the countless number of drug dealers state and nation wide? marijuana is as easy to get as a soda pop from the kwik mart.
