the logic is really simple. sick people should not be deinied the best available medicine. Especially when that medicine is vastly less expensive than all other options. (you can grow your own.)

I know that is what you say, but if the sick person has the chance of becoming Schizophrenic, why would you also think it is okay to use the drug for a sickness? Why take a chance on becoming a schizo just to relieve discomfort? I wouldn't want to take that kind of chance if the risk is as high as you say it is. That was the only reason why I asked.

Bro, with all medication, there are inherent risks. the balance is does the benifit of the drug out weigh the possible side effects?

in the case of MJ, in dealing with a very limited group of people, those with sever and debilitating pain, those taking chemo and suffering from an inability to eat (which increases the chance of death by a huge factor) and those who are terminally ill, the benifit far exceeds the risk.
