As far as I know, Scoiliosis doesn't cause pain. Just irritation when sleeping in the brace to prevent further curvature. -------------

While I agree that this court ruling is bogus-I disagree with the main post. She can still get it pretty easily if she doesn't go to prison-I'd be willing to wager she won't die. -------------

| As for a medicinal marijuana in general, if it's legal in the state, how in the hell are the feds going to justify intervening if they cant prove it relates to interstate matters? I cant think of how often your average pothead gets busted for growing his own by the FBI. |

| She is not going to die from not having the pot. She is going to die because of a brain tumor. The pot isnt curing her tumor. |

Back in school when they do scioliosis testing, they always said I have it even though I dont. The problem is my left leg is about half an inch longer than my right. -------------

My mom could greatly benifit from the use of medicinal marijuana too, her panel of doctors admitted it. Not legal here though. |

Couldn't she go to another state, get another doctor to prescribe it and bring it back home under the Full Faith and Credit Clause? |

I don't know if that was investigated or not, She has her own pain panel in UVM (Consisting of 24 docs) than she has another 5 at clevland clinic, and another three up in northern michigan. I think due to the amount of doctors involved they dont want to go with dodgy legal practices. They are managing to keep her in shape through improvised practices, she is currently scheduled for brain surgery at the end of the month. |

Are you really that dumb?
It was stated above: Pot = class 1 drug under federal laws state laws state it as legal for medical purposes
federal always wins, until the ACLU gets involved, then socialism followed by anacrchy do ------------- Most importantly - People suck. |

I find many of the issues the ACLU backs to be frivolous, at best, treasonist, at worse.
If I'm not mistaken, are not the ACLU along with NAMBLA and Ruth Baider-Ginsberg the main backers of dropping the age of sexual consent to 12? ------------- Most importantly - People suck. |

And what is wrong with that? I do not necessarily agree with it but why should the government be making laws telling people what they should or should not be doing to with their bodies? As long as the activity is consensual who care what people do with their bodies. Why should an arbitrary number be used to say when a person is ready or not to have sex, drink alcohol, run away, smoke cigarettes, and any other status offenses? I am sure there are members of this forum that had sex before the age of 18 and they grew to be good functioning members of society. Several studies have shown a good percentage of the population are having sex before 18 (or their states legal age of consent.), does that mean each and everyone of them should be treated as criminals? |

Lisa smokes grows and smokes pot in her bedroom of her parents house. Mom and Dad says it is okay. State law enforcement (in state were this would be illegal) comes to house and arrests her for crime.
Same thing but on a smaller scale. The only thing the California law does for the lady is make it so the state law enforcement agents cant do anything to her but the Federal agents can enforce Federal law against her. |

I always figured it was because before a certain age, you don't really have enough common sense to make an important decision like that, which could potentially change your life very quickly. But then again I'm conservative, so I'm biased already... |

Because letting people decide for themselves when they have common sense is a bit circular? |

Are you seriously that right wing? They are one of the big reasons this nation is as free as it is today....Just look into the history of the cases they tried....While I agree that some of their cases are kind of screwed up, they are a watchdog. They jump at any threat to civil liberties so that they stop all of the real threats....That's their job... Anyway, I was watching Star Trek: TNG last night and something Piccard said reminded me of this thread: "When law is absolute, there can be no justice".... ------------- |

That's not right wing - that looniebin. The TRUE right stands for less government and greater individual freedom - exactly the kind of thing that the ACLU stands for. While the ACLU does occasionally take a left-of-center position, they are mostly old-school conservatives. |

True. I was just thinking about the fact that the Bushies out there like to rag on the ACLU a lot, but I forgot that they're not really conservatives....I withdraw that question and replace it with yours....lol...
