Nick Forster (Edison) An Unjust Law!!!

According to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration marijuana is a “Schedule I ” drug. “Schedule I” drugs are classified as such…….they are highly addictive, they have no medical use, and are unsafe for use even under medical supervision. I do not use marijuana, but I am planning on becoming a doctor and I am opposed to unjust laws. This is an unjust law and I will show you why.

Now that you have heard what the government has to say lets see what scientists have to say. According to the L.A. Times, the general consensus among researchers is that marijuana has numerous medical benefits. It not only has benefits but it’s risks are less serious then some over the counter medications.  Science one government zero!

According to Dirk Hanson an expert in addiction. Marijuana does not show the models of tolerance and withdrawal you see with drugs such as alcohol tobacco and heroin. Furthermore there is absolutely no evidence of marijuana being “highly” addictive.  As far as the last requirement for a schedule one drug I think the last two ruled that out. This is an unjust law. There is no doubt in my mind.

    The goverment has a vested interest in keeping adictive drugs illegal to stave off an addicted and lathargic workforce. That was one of the ways Britain was able to invade China because they introduced opioum into the populace to passify the Chinese. When someone will be able to justify making a lot of money on marijuana, then it has a chance of being legalized. :)
