1) Re: 2012 Senate Bill 977 (Ban using medical marijuana for glaucoma ) by arduino123 on March 24, 2012I am an invalid that was damaged by a back surgeon and could not work anymore - you'll never understand how depressed that can make an individual.
I now used medical marijuana for the CONSTANT pain because Vicodin and Oxycodin became so addicting I nearly died.
Pray that this never happens to you.
Legalize pot - tax it - and monitor the growers. That may stop all the murders relating to smuggling into the US. It's a BIG waste of dollars to try to stop it cause it'll never happen - look at the money spent in Columbia and coke is still avaliable everywhere you look.
If you want to do something constructive - don't let doctors prescribe the MOST ADDICTIVE pain killers on the market. Oh - I forgot - kickback from pharmaceutical companies and their 'lobbyists' won't let that happen.
Anxiety is not the normal anxious feelings all persons experience from time to time in response to life experiences but rather the overbearing, crushing, near constant anxious state that is a very real mental disorder. Get a clue!
Boy, Rick Jones is really becoming the Nanny State Senator of the year! Is there anything he does not feel qualified to dictate about our lives? I hope the voters in his district are paying attention!
