It failed to mention the thousands of people worldwide who get some benefit from smoking marijuana. What about people suffering from multiple sclerosis, cancer, AIDS and other debilitating diseases who get some relief by smoking a little bit of pot? Nobody is advocating that we give marijuana to children, but why are we incarcerating adults for its use? It's all very hypocritical. Joe Province Pittsburgh - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
