As I've written before I have MS and can qualify for medical marijuana in Nevada. And no, I do not have a "weed card" - for three reasons:
Don't get me wrong - there's nothing inherently evil in pot. It's a drug and like all other drugs (including alcohol and tobacco) it can be abused. And like all other drugs it is a toxin. But the toxic and behavioral affects of pot, compared to legal drugs like caffeine, tobacco and alcohol are far less.
Such is the bizzzaro-world of American drug enforcement. By the way, I don't drink or smoke either.
All of that above to show this very funny video I found on G4 sung by the girls Garfunkel & Oates.
- It's still a federal crime and the DEA will bust you even though you have a state-approved license.
- There are no good medical studies yet that prove any concrete benefits to using pot for MS.
- In Nevada, you have grow and harvest your own marijuana and I just don't want to go through the hassle. Also I have a child and I don't want to expose her to the whole process.
