The medical scientific process proverb

 The medical, scientific process is open to any drug. That includes marijuana. But you have to get through a process and demonstrate scientific validity. And in this case, to be honest, I think it's nonsense. This is mostly a 'Cheech and Chong' show for the quasi-legalization of marijuana.

 The scientific and medical communities have determined that smoked marijuana is a health danger, not a cure, ... There is no medical evidence that smoking marijuana helps patients.

 Today's vote proves yet again that the movement to protect medical marijuana patients from arrest is unstoppable. Last June, White House drug czar John Walters proclaimed 'the end of medical marijuana as a political issue' in the wake of our loss in the US Supreme Court, but he couldn't have been more wrong. The public, the medical community, and Rhode Island legislators agree that patients with cancer, AIDS or multiple sclerosis should not be arrested for using medical marijuana on the advice of their physicians. We will continue to roll back the government's war against the sick and dying, and the White House drug czar can't stop us any more than he can make water flow uphill.

 [Drug Policy czar Barry McCaffrey believes the measures are premature since clinical research to determine the safety of marijuana use by AIDS patients has not yet been established. He also believes supporters of the initiatives have something else in mind.] Prejudging that research through a political process would be irresponsible, ... This isn't medicine; this is drug legalization.

 A great number of multiple sclerosis sufferers have experimented, sometimes illegally, with herbal marijuana in the past. We are confident that many patients will prefer a pharmaceutical or a scientific solution to the problem rather than crude herbal marijuana.

 [One noted legal authority endorses the White House response.] As I understand it, you can get marijuana whether or not you're really sick at all, ... Whether or not it really helps with pain or illness, effectively it's the legalization of marijuana.

 Researches tested a new form of medical marijuana that treats pain but doesn't get the user high, prompting patients who need medical marijuana to declare, "Thank you?"
  Jimmy Fallon

 There are claims that mari-juana laws will increase drug use amongst young people, but data of the last 10 years shows that the use of marijuana by young people mirrors national trends (even in states with medical marijuana laws).

 I started using marijuana and alcohol daily when I was 14 and it led to cocaine and Ecstasy. As far as marijuana being a gateway drug, I'd have to agree with that.

 I think people need to be educated to the fact that marijuana is not a drug. Marijuana is an herb and a flower. God put it here. If He put it here and He wants it to grow, what gives the government the right to say that God is wrong?
  Willie Nelson

 It seems apparent at this juncture that the medical profession is unwilling to play the role as gatekeeper by sorting illegal marijuana from medicinal marijuana.

 There is an argument that medical marijuana is a back door to (recreational) legalization, ... I don't think that, but I do believe it's opening the door for people to learn about the plant.

 We want to legalize marijuana. But we can't sell it in cafes like in Amsterdam, because we'd get all the unemployed Germans coming here. We don't want foreigners consuming marijuana in public. It could demean marijuana. We like the system where a friend gives it to or sells it to his friends.

 [Donald Abrams, MD, also commented on the biased federal approach to research. In the late '90s Abrams conducted a federally funded study to determine the safety of smoked marijuana in AIDS patients taking protease inhibitors.] At that time we could not use the federal government's marijuana to show that it might be beneficial because NIDA has a mandate from Congress that they could only supply marijuana for research to show that it might be dangerous, ... Subsequently NIDA has changed their mechanism so we can look for benefit.

 The two initiatives in Arizona and California attempt to sidestep this very important scientific and medical process,
  Janet Reno
