If marijuana is legal, then it's redundant to call it medical marijuana. we know apples are good for you but we don't call them medical apples, do we?

And no, the FDA didn't approve of medical marijuana, they approved of GW Pharma conducting clinical trials on medical marijuana.

Let's be less misleading...

They approved TESTING, they didn't actually approve Medical Marijuana, let's keep our pants on. ;-)

Medical marijuana (Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) had been legal since 1985. It's called Marinol.. It's synthetic and doctors can prescribe it right now. Kinda takes the fire out of these "medical" marijuana laws in my opinion.

The good news though. People are stupid and will continue passing these laws. There is money to be made here. Gltu.
