NEEDLESS SUFFERING

Northbrook -- Medical marijuana should be denied to no one. When I
first heard about the Supreme Court's rulings against medical
marijuana, I was outraged. There have been studies that have been done
for more than 20 years, and almost all of them state that marijuana
can be used to relieve pain, nausea and many other ailments. Hundreds
of thousands of people are suffering, people who could be helped by
the use of medical marijuana.
