DO I THINK

Do I think the medical use of marijuana should be legal?

No more than I think morphine should be legal for the pain of serious
illnesses or injuries, or that Ritalin should be legal for the
treatment of attention-deficit disorder in children despite its
underground popularity as a stimulant among cramming college students,
or that steroids, although abused by some coaches and athletes, should
be prescribed for certain illnesses and injuries.
