Weed should be imputed with our constitution? We love what this nation brought us…....a cash crop. Not only was it first used by George Washington as money maker. He was the first president which believes in our 50 states to be one. Meaning each states that is struggling with any matters the other 49 states must help that one state. So why is Calfo the first state and others state…...New york constantly is neglect because when our founding fathers sat down they talk about a more lenget government. So the very fisrt president allow the government to break down three branches.It is hard to ignore a man proud of the cash crop and also trying to make one into a whole. Look at presidnt Licoln he was the president who believe in the constition which in his power and heart belive by alowing slaves to be free and adding more amendments things will look better…....honest to god we live under the truth…which is God almighty.. Have we ignore what is printed in our pocket…believe it or not we have god swed in our hearts..it wat makes us happy “in god we trust” More importantly the united states was united under god…were God importanly mentions…...as law enter we sound less concern with the goodness of humanity.. sending them to jail….our brothers sister …those who we oppose just like in time if we could live in harmony with smoking weed and look at it’s potentual for medical use, then we can see the use ….....in futures to come our generation is being expose to it more often, accordanc to the increase in arrest and drug program and other historiccal evidence. It is written every one has try weed and believe everyone been cursous as well. As natuaral it sounds we forget and we call it a drug.Our braches looks at money being…...taxes on crop….. testing on upgrade equipment is found….why not spend that extra money to let more money come in as for support for governmentfrom our branch of gov but not Calf as a state of the “United States”but as one in our

A press release just came out that the website MarijuanaDoctors is now affiliating with PotLocator, so who knows what the future holds for improvement. Given the look of MD’s site, only good things can come from it and PotLocator has been updating it’s sites on a daily basis for the past two weeks. Nothing shows excitement like constant little tweaks. Good luck to all the sites out there, competition only makes things better!

The choice should be left to the person, so much for land of the free. im disgusted its not legalized allready, if somebody has problems let him/her decide what they want. The fact is it will never ever be stopped if the goverment was smart, instead of spending all that money fighting it imagine how much money they could of made by taxing it. but we leave it to politicians who brought the deficit to an all time high, and an economy at an all time low, goes to show you that this goverment does not know shit. we the people have to take control of our goverment along with many other issues.

Not only that we need to legalize recreational Marijuana for adults. If Alcohol is legal why not Marijuana? Marijuana is safer than Alcohol.

MEDICAL CANNABIS

Of course medical cannabis (marijuana) should be available to people with serious medical conditions!

New York should have protected its sick and dying from having their door kicked in (& possibly killed), or from being caged a long time ago. It is tragic special interests (corruption) continue to trump Science and Compassion in New York.

What’s the holdup? More importantly, WHO is holding it up?

Cannabis has been used as a medicine for thousands of years—by MILLIONS of people worldwide—without one credible account of a single overdose, which is mind-boggling, especially considering FDA-approved drugs kill tens of thousands of people per year – even when properly prescribed and properly taken.

Cannabis can help to treat a wide array of clinical conditions—including AlzheimerÊ¹s disease, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (a.k.a. Lou GehrigÊ¹s disease), Cachexia, Diabetes mellitus, Epilepsy, Dystonia, Fibromyalgia, Gastrointestinal disorders, Gliomas, Hepatitis C, Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Hypertension, Incontinence, Multiple sclerosis, Osteoporosis, Pruritis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Sleep apnea, TouretteÊ¹s syndrome, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s, to name just a few.

The following health organizations support access to medical marijuana (let’s bury the “no medical support” MYTH once and for all):

American Academy of Family Physicians, American College of Physicians, American Medical Student Association, American Nurses Association, American Preventive Medical Association, American Public Health Association, American Society of Addiction Medicine, Arthritis Research Campaign (United Kingdom), Australian Medical Association (New South Wales), Limited Australian National Task Force on Cannabis, Belgian Ministry of Health, British House of Lords Select Committee on Science and Technology, British House of Lords Select Committee On Science and Technology (Second Report), British Medical Association, Canadian AIDS Society, Canadian Special Senate Committee on Illegal Drugs, Dr. Dean Edell (surgeon and nationally syndicated radio host), French Ministry of Health, Health Canada, Kaiser Permanente, Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Lymphoma Foundation of America, The Montel Williams MS Foundation, Multiple Sclerosis Society (Canada), The Multiple Sclerosis Society (United Kingdom), National Academy of Sciences Institute Of Medicine (IOM), National Association for Public Health Policy, National Nurses Society on Addictions, Netherlands Ministry of Health, New England Journal of Medicine, New South Wales (Australia), AIDS Action Council, AIDS Treatment News, Parliamentary Working Party on the Use of Cannabis for Medical Purposes, Dr. Andrew Weil, Alaska Nurses Association, Being Alive: People With HIV/AIDS Action Committee (San Diego, CA), California Academy of Family Physicians, California Nurses Association, California Pharmacists, Colorado Nurses Association, Connecticut Nurses Association, Florida Governor’s Red Ribbon Panel on AIDS, Florida Medical Association, Hawaii Nurses Association, Illinois Nurses Association, Life Extension Foundation, Medical Society of the State of New York, Minnesota Nurses Association, the Minnesota Public Health Association, the Minnesota AIDS Council, Mississippi Nurses Association, New Jersey State Nurses Association, New Mexico Medical Society, New Mexico Nurses Association, New York County Medical Society, New York State Nurses Association, North Carolina Nurses Association, Rhode Island Medical Society, Rhode Island State Nurses Association, San Francisco Mayor’s Summit on AIDS and HIV, San Francisco Medical Society, Vermont Medical Marijuana Study Committee, Virginia Nurses Association, Whitman-Walker Clinic (Washington, DC), Wisconsin Nurses Association, etc…

And that is just a fraction of the medical support for medical marijuana, as this list just begins to touch on the international support for medical marijuana.

End the Lies.

It is cruel and senseless to criminalize patients with debilitating conditions for using the medicine that works best for them, with their doctors’ support. The New York Assembly’s medical marijuana bill would be the most tightly crafted medical marijuana law in the nation. It would apply only to serious conditions, where doctors believe the medical use of marijuana would be the most effective treatment. The bill has earned the support of all major medical organizations in the state, 76% of the public, and 55% of Conservative Party members.
