Flint Pot Vote Raises Awareness |
Posted by CN Staff on March 04, 2007 at 11:34:12 PT Editorial Source: Saginaw News Flint, Michigan -- Medical Marijuana advocates are hailing -- or is it inhaling? -- a victory Feb. 27. By a 1,777-1,101 vote, Flint became the fifth Michigan city to approve legally puffing pot for health reasons. Use remains illegal under state and federal law. Officials reminded Flint residents not to start loading up their hookah pipes -- or face the consequences. Other Michigan cities that have approved medical pot-use measures are Ann Arbor, Detroit, Ferndale and Traverse City. Lansing is the next target, says NORML, a pro-marijuana outfit, and the goal is to get a medical dope initiative on the statewide ballot. Medical marijuana use is legal in 11 states. Pass the Cheetos. Whether marijuana is safer or a more effective painkiller than, say, OxyContin is debatable, but some users think so. Cancer patients who have tried it say pot works best at inducing appetite. It has beneficial uses, and we're sympathetic to those who use it legally.

Excerpt from Obama's Speech in Selma, Alabama Senator Obama: Folks are complaining about the quality of our government, I understand there's something to be complaining about. I'm in Washington. I see what's going on. I see those powers and principalities have snuck back in there, that they're writing the energy bills and the drug laws. http://www.barackobama.com/2007/03/04/selma_voting_rights_march_comm.php [ Post Comment ] |
