Cannabis / Weed in Poland... How much does marijuana cost per gram and how easy is to get it? [355]
Jones, you have a point; stoned people never robbed a bank.
Rocky, I find it sad that you and your friend are abusing the drug law - it is definitely NO joke, for those whom it was intended for! At least acknowledge that mmj does help people who are in chronic, unremitting pain, 24/7 year round.
I have a friend whom I took to one of those 215 doctors, with his MRIs and doctor records. He has 10 conditions that he's suffered with for almost a decade, and was contemplating suicide to stop the pain, when I mentioned the mmj to him as an option. Even his own mother would rather he be dead than try it because of the propaganda (that's so sick and twisted). So I drove him. The doctor talked with him, and told him that he only needed two of his chronic conditions for a few years, to obtain the license - but with 10, she was shocked he was still alive, and said the program was definitely made for him!
So he's at $20 a week, he's been gaining his life back, and cut his regular drugs way down. Plus it's the FIRST thing he's taken, that has affected the nerve pain! After they figure out which type suits him best, it may go up to $30 a week (for pain free), but it's so nice to see him awake, and actually moving around!! Yes - the mmj actually has him active, seriously. I doubted it too, but from what the doc said, it affects nerve damaged people differently. He said he's starting to feel like he may be able to work a job again, and is vying for hopefully, pain free days.
Just sad people abuse it, but thank g*d people that really need it are being helped, and my friend didn't kill himself from the 9+ out of 10 pain daily. I'm going to see him tomorrow for a bit.
