    He doesn't know shit. He even said he looked up statistics on the internet during the weekend about weed, and that proves he just got some shitty info off the internet and it led him to believe it was bad, he can't even look at the positives of it. He thinks he'll get a lot of votes and shit because he is trying to get rid of marijuana completely. I hate that shit.

    marinol has all the use of a placebo. I feel sorry for anyone who has to settle for this bullshit to treat their illness.

    I don't know. I don't worry too much about it. I am not really examining the candidates. I'm voting in the primary for Ron Paul. I do not really care who wins. None of them win. It's not a fucking lottery or something... it should not be treated like one.

    Despite Mitt Romney's doucheyness, sometimes you just have to go above and beyond classification of politicians, when they are already doing that to, well, their nation and it's people. You can stand there and piss and moan about classifying people all you want and nothing is going to change if you're still the one standing there classifying folks at the end of the day, I'd rather they be classifying voters and stereotyping voters, just like we do to them... I just do not feel it works that way. That's sort of bizarre.

    I'm definitely NOT voting him for president this autumn. Romney really does seem like a total douchebag. Here's some more info on him and the drug war:

    http://glassbooth.org/explore/index/mitt-romney/14/medical-marijuana-and-drug-policy/1/

    I've never used marijuana and don't plan to either, but I do support its legalization, especially for the ill who need it. I don't think people should get fines, let alone get thrown in jail for trying a substance that makes them feel good. Hell, marijuana never even killed anyone, and that's exceptionally safe as a medical or recreational drug.

    I think people should know about this before they vote in November. I'm voting for Ron Paul, I hope all of you do the same.

    Damn it's been a while. I know Romney is just playing the party and all, but this scenario really reminds me of how fucked America is as a country. If that idiot succeeds in his presidential candidate -- :(.

    I believe he addressed the first medical marijuana "patient" politically correct. I have patient in " " because, as someone previously mentioned, that man was obviously more than 85 pounds and even if he was using it solely for medical purposes you know he was lying when he said he was not for full legalization. It is when Romney begins talking about synthetic THC that I began to feel agitated.

    First off, to compare synthetic THC to the cannabis plant is absurd because there are many more active compounds released upon combustion than solely THC. I'll address this issue last. What I want to point, and admittedly there was no way that Romney could know this, is that synthetic THC and Delta9-THC (naturally occurring THC) are NOT THE SAME CHEMICAL. They are as close as you can possible get to one another, but not the same!

    How do I know this? Because after high school I went off to uni - and being that I love pot - I got a job in a research laboratory testing D9-THC ataxia on rats :D First thing my PI told me was that only REAL EXTRACTED THC FROM CANNABIS is used during the experiment. He said, and remember this man is Muslim and has never taken a drug in his, that synthetic THC and D9-THC are not similar enough to produce accurate results. If something was identical to one another and produced the same exact effects why would a PhD be so strict in using the legit compound? Sure, science has to be extremely critical but if it was the same compound there would be no problem.

    Now synthetic THC versus the combustion of cannabis, which I'm sure most people know does not yield the same effects. Cannabis has so many other things in it - good and bad - that exacerbates the effects of THC (and may even do the opposite - no one knows) and also has effects of their own. This is what Mitt Romney should fucking know. This is what people should bring to that asshole's attention. You can't take one active ingredient out of a plant, albeit the strongest, and say it will produce the same effects.

    This is why I am sad for America, because you have uneducated bigots like Romney running for presidency of the country.

    i gotta say...i think the medical marijuana patient in the video is kind of a dick.

    why should you only be able to smoke pot if you're sick?

    i don't like how he said he was against legalization for all, but there are medical uses.

    a person should be able to smoke pot, MS patient or not
