Media Narrative: "Let's help opioid addicts b/c the only reason they got addicted to street heroin is b/c Big Bad Pharma gave them Oxy.' "White children with epilepsy deserve medical marijuana – everybody else can go to prison."
The Reality: A million people are in American prisons for drug offenses. A few countries have legalized all drugs, usually the help of hospitals.
What is needed? Safe, practical information to possibly end the failed the War On Drugs. Americans have been hearing dog-whistles about drugs for 50 years, since Nixon. We need some new options. Heard rumors that 50% of street crime is really drug crime. That's the type of info we need, b/c it's appeals multi-racially.
The FDA approves this because it's for Big Pharma lobby. But the homegrown plant is still illegal? Just another way to make you pay for a plant which should be free.
I thought merinol was the first cannabis derived medication. And its been around for at least 25 years… RT misinformed disinformation propaganda machine. Dumb fucking reporters don't have a clue what they are talking about. Damn people are too gullible.
DERIVED from marijuana?? Their chemicals are still in it. It's still a drug that can kill. Why not approve the ORIGINAL plant that hasn't killed anyone yet in the entire world!!! Smh.
WE NEED ACCESS TO THE WHOLE PLANT SO WE CAN LIVE A WHOLE LIFE!! ALL WE WANT IS TO LIVE AND NOT NEEDLESSLY SUFFER DOING IT!! MANY LIKE MYSELF (I HAVE CRPS) NEEDLESSLY SUFFER FOR NO REASONS OTHER THAN THE CORRUPTION AND GREED OF CRIMINAL POLITICIANS AND THEIR RICH BRIBERS THINKING IT MORE IMPORTANT TO GET RICHER THEN IT IS TO END THE NEEDLESS SUFFERING OF FAR TOO MANY!! #MakeCannabisLawful#ResistTheirCorruptionAndGreed
So the fda can break federal law? The hypocrisy do what we say and not as we do?? So they said no medical value? So now it should remove it from the controlled substance act.
AAAAA LETS SEE HOW MANY MORE SPORT STARS ARE GONNA NEED MEDICAL POT TO SURVIVE CONVULSIONS.. WHAT THEY NEED TO DO IS APPROVE USE OF STEROIDS…. YEA A BUNCH OF STONED PUTS PLAYING BASEBALL PROFESSIONALLY NEVER THE LESS..
IT IS AGAINST FEDERAL LAW TO USE CANNABIS AND IS PUNNISHABLE BY JAIL OR FINES… but the FDA can do what it wants while the american voter bring this same issue to light and repelled by every lobbiest and government official under the sun. This is no longer a democracy! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha…idiot dumpster supporters…hahahahahahahaha.
Thank you government for giving me a (free person) permission to ingest what i want to ingest in my own body without harming others. We are nothing but cattle and can't think for ourselves with out big almighty government to show us the way… LMFAO
One correction, THC and CBD do not have the same effects at all lol. They do have separate positive effects though and in combination can have additional benefits and effects.
“No medical use”. Hmmm
Trump said he will support a bill coming up that lifts the federal ban on merijuana. Can you imagine Trump decriminalizes weed and Obama didn't ?¿?¿?
PTSD is treated really well with cannabis

THC has different medicinal properties than does CBD, and the combination of the two have even greater and wider medicinal properties.
