DON'T POINT A FINGER AT THE SICK

In response to Joanne Crouch (MD ?). What are your economist 
credentials? What are your medical credentials? What business do you 
own/operate that does not benefit from the money flow originated from 
the small growers?

I am not a smoker or grower and I am against the social use of 
marijuana, but I would never assume that anyone with any kind of 
severe pain should not be allowed to use whatever method works for 
them to cure or alleviate their ailment.

Ms. Crouch can try any method she wishes to legalize those hard drugs 
but lay off something she evidently knows nothing about.

As I have stated (and it's true), I have not and do not imbibe in pot 
and never will, but I have seen the results on various physical 
ailments and would never be so high and mighty as to say those people 
are just using medical marijuana to get high.

I would suggest doing a little research before posting your opinion 
even though I respect that as just an opinion the same as mine.
