The reason I a...Fair question: Why just medicinal?<br /><br />The reason I ask this is because cannabis is still a Schedule I narcotic. Here's the definition of a Schedule I:<br /><br /><i>The drug or other substance has a high potential for abuse.<br />1. The drug or other substance has no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States.<br />2. There is a lack of accepted safety for use of the drug or other substance under medical supervision.<br />3. Except as specifically authorized, it is illegal for any person:<br />to manufacture, distribute, or dispense, or possess with intent to manufacture, distribute, or dispense, a controlled substance; or<br />to create, distribute, or dispense, or possess with intent to distribute or dispense, a counterfeit substance.[3]<br /></i><br /><br />With that definition, how is cannabis categorized as a Schedule I, and alcohol is NOT? Clearly, there are politics behind this categorization -- not public safety.Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556493089372277491noreply@blogger.com
