Marijuana is one of the most studied plants in history and “one of the safest therapeutic agents known to mankind,” direct words from DEA administrative law Judge Francis Young. He ruled that marijuana has been proven to have medical benefits in 1988.
The UN World Health Organization reported that marijuana is safer than tobacco or alcohol. There isn’t one recorded death from a marijuana overdose in medical history, but a over-the-counter drug, approved by the government known as Aspirin kills about 1,000 people a year in the United States.
Even with all this evidence, federal officials still think that we need more “recognized studies” before they can stop arresting sick people. Another problem is that they also refuse to acknowledge existing studies and have blocked repeated attempts to perform new studies. Yet they still claim that marijuana causes harm, even though all claims are hypothetical and have no proven evidence to back them up.
UuuMM…this is sounding all too familiar—my last post about the FDA denying studies like it’s their job! How can you deny something that’s been tested and proven to help people medically?
