MEDICAL MERITS OF POT GO BACK THOUSANDS OF YEARS

Columnist Tom Fletcher missed the bull's eye regarding cannabis 
(marijuana), implying it's an "inconsistent" herbal remedy that 
hasn't been studied much because it's been illegal ("Bowing to the 
power of judges," The Leader, March 2).

Government-subsidized prohibitionists in North America have hindered 
research progress, however, the plant has been documented medically 
for more than 5,000 years medically without a single death. That's 
safety and consistency on a Biblical scale.
