POT LESS DEADLY THAN APPROVED DRUGS

An estimated 55,000 Americans died prematurely from taking Vioxx, and
who knows how many Canadians suffered the same fate. All the Cox-2
drugs are now under a lethal cloud of suspicion.

But we continue to hassle those who find pain/symptom relief from
medicinal cannabis. I guess we want potheads to die from FDA-approved
pharmaceuticals, like the good, law-abiding citizenry does.
