Headline Tag: Subculture Rating: Amazing Hits: 2114 Comments: 2 James Randi Speaks on Medical Marijuana James Randi Speaks on Medical Marijuana Charles L. Lynch, proprietor of a legal medical marijuana dispensary in California faces 85 years in prison. From Randi - Understand this: I heartily endorse and accept marijuana use for medical purposes; research has clearly shown that it works efficiently in that role, and brings comfort and relief to the suffering. As a result of this stated conditional acceptance, I have been approached by those who advocate general use of the substance on the same level that tobacco enjoys. Generally, this makes sense to me, except that if its use were to bring with it the same dreadful health penalties that accompany tobacco, I would be reluctant to accept that. I am not a drug user, I have never even been inebriated. That is my personal choice, and I feel that other persons should also enjoy freedom of choice, even if taxes are imposed on that freedom in order to legislate it; I dont want out-of-control drivers threatening my safety, for example. Drugs are not for me. I wish that my friends would not use them. Case closed More detailed information available at http://reason.com/blog/show/133010.html User: spam_vigilante Aug 13, 2009 1:33 AM
