Drew Carey Defends Medical Marijuana

submitted by winkler1

1 decade 6 years 7 months 3 weeks ago

“I think it’s clear by now that the federal government needs to reclassify marijuana. People who need it should be able to get it – safely and easily,” says The Price Is Right and Power of 10 host Drew Carey in a new Reason.tv video examining medical marijuana and the war on drugs.

One of the most outrageous consequences of the war on drugs is the federal crackdown on medical marijuana, which is used by patients to help treat the effects of cancer, glaucoma, HIV-AIDS, chronic pain and nausea, and other severe symptoms associated with serious illnesses. Medical marijuana prescribed by a physician is legal in 12 states, yet federal agents are raiding state-approved dispensaries and preventing patients from having safe access to this drug.

In Episode 2 of Reason.tv's Drew Carey Project, Drew takes a look at patients who need and use medical marijuana in California, and how the federal government is making their lives even worse.

I'm digging this new reason.tv - this one was much better than his traffic video.

the illegality of marijuana makes zero sense, unless you are in the mafia.

nice!

Can we grind it up and put it in dog food?

I wish more people would see this video and comprehend what Drew is saying. Cannabis should never have been made illegal - Alcohol prohibition was a total failure, and Cannabis prohibition is completely unjustified. America has been lied to by the DEA for over 30 years, and by government in one way or another since before Reefer Madness was released to the public. And all of this has been at great economic harm to our nation and personal harm to the thousands who have been unjustly imprisoned because of simple possession - not to mention how few have had access to this very helpful medication because of Federal lies and prosecution.
