I have 2 sherriffs deputees and a Cincinnati cop in my family. I don't blow pot smoke in their face but they are well aware of the fact that I use it to control serious pain. Most cops are understanding about medicinal marijuana around here. I feel it works best when cooked into cookies. It lasts much longer. For me, it works better than morphine, but I can't afford that much of it and I refuse to sell it. It isn't even addictive! The morphine is covered by Medicare and Medicaid, ironically. I think some of us may not suffer much pain and I thank god for you all. I don't know what caused my pain to begin. I'd be happy to know if theres any studies involving quads. I can't say I like taking the meds I take. Seems there is a lot of things I don't like about my life. The meds are a minor inconvienence compared to the disrespect I think many of us deal with. From inaccessible buildings to batteries that loose there charge overnight and salespeople ignoring us.

I'm sorry but if you're being serious, get a brain. Haven't you noticed all of the Drug stores in your neighborhood? And don't kid yourself about who the biggest drug dealers are; they're the pharmaceutical companies who have the best ads on your tv, like Dow "the human element". I would be the first to agree that not taking drugs is healthier for your body in most cases, but drugs also exist for a good purpose and they do save lives. I'm in the process of weaning myself off of morphine(prescribed by UF Shands MD), and although it may have been useful for me for a time, its negative side effects (like loss of appetite) can hurt your health as well. The propaganda you're repeating against drugs ironically comes from drug companies! isn't that hilarious?! The drug which certainly would be helpful and useful for many a truly needing patient, is marijuana, and sadly it is the most ill-reputed drug out there. There are many reasons for your beliefs being what they are, and the facts aren't one of them.
