Jesus, what the hell??
Alright, let me explain somthing: Yes, they are using it for medicinal purposes. HOWEVER!!! It does not cure any fucking thing
From wikipedia: "including glaucoma, AIDS wasting, neuropathic pain, treatment of spasticity associated with multiple sclerosis, and chemotherapy-induced nausea,"

Yes, there are a few things it can help with, but don't market it as the next fucking miracle pill. Pain killing, making you sick, relieving some pressure behind the eye, stave off alzheimers, whatever. So, I call bullshit on making a big deal that it can be used in medicine.
As for legalizing it at all, I have to say no. I've seen people that were high before, anything that causes a drastic change in mood and thought is NOT good for you. The most I'd be okay with is if it was administered in the presence of a docter and regular treatment wasn't an option, that's it.
