Good link cheers
Having been a carer of an MS sufferer, and knowing several other MS sufferers I can without any element of doubt confirm the therapeutic quality of cannabis, having wittenessed first hand the relief it brings to the often crippling symptoms of MS. For many sufferers this means quite literally the difference between being able to walk and being wheel chair bound. It is almost beyond belief that society seeks to criminalise the use of cannabis for leisure or spiritual use but to deny its proven medicinal effectiveness on sufferers of MS and a whole host of other associated nervous disorders is dam right evil!

Interesting read! The annecdotal evidence quotes put a smile on my face.
To think, people affected so by this malady, who self medicate can legally be fined, maybe imprisoned... treated like criminals. Just for seeking out some pain relief outside of an expensive pharmaceutical soloution.
Makes my blood boil just thinking about it.

...nothing less than a "legal?" organized crime protection racket, IMO.
It's all about money - as long as it goes into their pockets they don't give a fuck if you snort draino or any other harmful "drug"!
Taxes & revenue - nothing more, nothing less. Period.
Peace,
