MARIJUANA'S BAD REP UNDESERVED

Many, many times I have read and heard statements about marijuana that
are simply untrue. I realize that because it is considered a drug,
people do not respond publicly. But attributing violent or unlawful
acts to use of marijuana is simply lying. Marijuana is a painkiller
and calmative agent, which is why it is so useful in medicine. Can
anything be done about this?
