you know ANYONE can get medical marijuana

you have to fill the forms and shit and when they ask the reason "personal use" you can buy the gov'ts home grown for cheep prices. im pretty sure its only in canada tho.

 

Here in the US there are some states where it's easy to get. On "60 Minutes" they recently did a feature about it, and some woman got a prescription because she said her high heels hurt her feet!

 

must be, personal use is not a medical use, here you dont need a prescription only a doctors note saying u have a condition that ity can relieve

however if you look in the old new england journal of pharmacology 1 of the medical uses was the relief of boredom
so if you listed chronic boredom as your medical need that may work

 

i dont know where you go to fill them out but theres forms and you can claim personal use as a medical use idk how it works but i know its true. anyone can do it but i think they make it very hard to do it so not alot of ppl can

 

from what ive read from canadians on similar boards is that its tougher to get a medicinal weed card in canada than the us states that have it.

Not really sure if theres any doctors that would accept boredom. Unfortunately that is a big reason the lame congress and media give med mj such a bad rep.

 

Everyone I know with mj prescriptions, use insomnia caused by yearsof chronic marijuana smoking as their medical need.

CO -- A Colorado couple is threatening to sue local law enforcement to get its bongs back -- as well as its marijuana plants, which they say they grew for medical purposes.

According to their lawyer, James and Lisa Masters will be seeking "in excess of $100,000" from the Larimer County Drug Task Force, which illegally seized 39 plants and failed to preserve them. Under Article XVIII, Section 14 of the Colorado State Constitution, "any property ... used in connection with the medical use of marijuana... shall not be harmed, neglected, injured, or destroyed while in the possession of state or local law enforcement officials."

The Constitution also reads in part: "Marijuana and paraphernalia seized by state or local law enforcement officials from a patient or primary care-giver ... shall be returned immediately."

According to the Masters's lawyer, Brian Vicente of Sensible Colorado (which advocates "a system where drug use becomes a health issue, not a crime issue"), officers broke the law when they confiscated 39 plants, growing equipment, about eight ounces in loose marijuana and several bongs and pipes, in August 2006.

The cultivation and possession charges were later dropped. In November Colorado Chief District Judge James Hiatt found that the Masters were legitimate caretakers who use the drugs to treat people and said law enforcement was wrong to seize their property. On Monday, the Masters picked up their property from the Fort Collins Police Department.

But there was a problem.

According to Vicente, the plants were all but dead, one having turned into a "moldy, black pool of goo." The glass bongs were also destroyed, their shattered remains handed back in plastic bags, and the couple is currently testing whether their grow equipment is still functional.

Vicente's clients are seeking monetary compensation for their lost property, which is estimated at more than $100,000. We're "just asking police to follow the law," Vicente said. Fort Collins police spokeswomen Rita Davis says that the department was under no obligation to care for the Masters' plants or compensate the couple, saying the Masters were not registered care-givers with the state at the time of their arrest.

The lawsuit may be filed next week. My question to OFF/beat readers is this: Given the requirements of state law, should police stations in Colorado be required to have grow rooms?

As medicinal marijuana becomes more widely available for minor conditions like boredom and sore muscles, I'm concerned that they're going to pull the rug out from under us. It was originally intended for people with major medical problems like cancer or AIDS, but once the lawyers got ahold of it and sued for other peoples' "right" to get access to medical marijuana, it opened up controversies which could lead its opponents to say medical marijuana does society more harm than good. Let's hope we don't kill the golden goose.
