More bull shit spoon-fed to the idiots to gobble up

http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/05/18/...rss_topstories. The "author", Mike Ahlers, is an idiot and it seems that CNN and the rest of them can't try to scare people enough:
Quote:
The marijuana coming across the southwest border, traditionally a source of low-potency drugs, has increased in strength from a median potency of 4.8 percent in 2003 to 7.3 percent in 2007.

As a consequence, inexperienced or young marijuana users may be more prone to overdose, federal officials say. And users hoping to achieve a state of euphoria may experience dysphoria, a state of anxiety and irritability, and perhaps other ill effects.
Dumb fuck should be hit in the head by a newspaper.

ElSohly said he personally opposes the legalization of marijuana for recreational use, believing that it would increase abuse of the drug.

But he says that it has medical benefits for cancer patients and others but that smoking the drug is a poor means of medicating a person.

His first effort to develop a pharmaceutically acceptable means of delivering the drug flopped, he says.

His delivery device: a suppository.

The whole article seems to indicate that it is so complicated to ingest marijuana in a relatively healthy way. Remembering that ALL drugs have side effects, it doesn't take a brain surgeon to know that it can be eaten or vaporized. All that article said to me is that our tax payer dollars were being used to develop a THC delivery system simply that pharmaceutical companies could profit off of, therefore, making the possession of the actual plant matter still a crime.

The arthur seemed, and probably was, paid off by the pharmaceutical companies. I bet you will see more of this as mj legalization momentum grows. Newspaper are so desperate for revenue that all an advertiser has to do now-a-days is threaten to not advertise if anything negative or oppositional is said. We will see propaganda like nothing seen in years because of this fear, I guarantee it. God, lets see if we are any smarter.
