Best Opinion: CNN, The 420 Times
The video: For the first time in American history, it seems, an advertisement promoting the use of medical marijuana has been aired on television. Paid for by Sacramento, CA-based CannaCare medical marijuana dispensary — owned by self-described "conservative Christian" Lanette Davies — the 30-second ad ran on a local Fox station and features patients (including Davies' teen daughter) testifying to the benefits of the plant. The word "marijuana," however, is never mentioned, and no one is show using the drug. "I'm not looking at getting people high," Davies has said. "I'm looking at getting them well."

He asked, "what's next, medical cocaine, medical heroin?". I wonder if he has ever heard of morphine? Every hospital in the country is stocked with 98% pure powder cocaine.
Meanwhile, as I type, rCade's pitchmen have an add stage left that reads, "Get the facts straight" from drugfreeworld.com. The only fact that matters is cannabis helps people. Case Closed.
You want a "drug free world", have at it. No medicine for you because every 'drug' can and is abused by someone somewhere. More drugs for me. Excellent idea.
As for Me? I want a Free Drug World. Floxxx the Pharmaceutical Companies. gto
