She knows that using cannabis would make her life better. She could use less pain medication, and would be able to enjoy life more. But she does not want to sign up for medical cannabis.
I can understand. Possession of cannabis is still against Federal law.
The disabled veteran knows that her fellow soldiers were disciplined for having small amounts of opiates is their systems after burning fields of opium.
Even in California, medical marijuana patients are still being arrested for possession.
All it takes is one drug conviction and a disabled person loses almost all of the help available from the government. The drug blacklists during the Bush Administration included no federal housing help and no school financial aid.
The Obama Administration stopped the Feds from raiding cannabis clinics, but a change back to the Republicans would almost certainly cause drug raids, draconian blacklists, and more people in prison.
We need to change the Federal law. THERE IS NO REASON THAT CANNABIS IS MORE ILLEGAL THAN ANY OTHER DRUG.
To do this soon, we must keep the Democratic control of the US Congress. It would help if you could send some monies to the Democrats.
I intend to start a campaign to change the federal law if I have a Congress that will listen to reason. Because the Republicans have NEVER listened to reason regarding cannabis, I do not expect that they will listen to reason in the future.
