    In Denver, we have legalized medical marijuana. It's immensely popular. Currently, there are more MMJ clinics than coffee shops in the city of Denver. If the government forces this strain of marijuana to be used for clinical purposes, my guess is you'll see a lot of these places closing and people reporting fewer incidences of "stress" and "glaucoma".

    I thought the entire point of MMJ was that the high reduced pain?

    May as well just hand out Camels and Marlboros if you take away the THC.

    Can you imagine if/when they find something other than hemp to make ropes and other stuff from?

    Isn't it that THC isn't the active ingredient that helps them, and that it's the active ingredient that gets them stoned?

    If the medicine helps them without getting them stoned, isn't that what the medicine is intended to do?

    I believe his point is that a lot of people with alleged problems that have been getting medical marijuana will suddenly not need the medicine. For some reason.

    Keep the THC in it, legalize it and taxed the hell out of it. Win for everybody but drug dealers

    ...I think you would all be amazed by the vast amount of real science behind mother nature's miracle cannabis plant and the amazing chemicals found inside!

    Thank you for revealing your ignorance. MMJ isn't used for actual pain relief in the overwhelming cases here in Colorado; it's backdoor legalization. If you want to be angry at someone, be angry at those abusing the system just to get high.

    Have a nice day.

    Hugs & Kisses,

    If I had one, I'd want one that didn't get me high. But I see what you're trying to do, and it won't work.

    Nice try, though. You keep reaching for that rainbow!
