    Well I agree that bababooey isn't going to get it without a real diagnosis.
    But I don't see what's wrong with treating mild backpain with a natural painkiller, seems sensible to me.

    Yup, Terrapin is right. Medical MJ thru the clubs is no deal. They charge top $ for it usually. I was in one in SD and the cheapest weed there was $275 an oz. Up in No. Cal I'm seeing $325 or so, and $14 a gram and up (hey they even have bubble and honey oil!). So how do you save $?

    Also about medical conditions that qualify... If MJ helps you AT ALL, you should be able to use it. Yes I understand the need to keep these places open, but cannabis is some of the BEST medicine we have, and who wants to play Eichmann, deciding who gets medicine and who doesn't?

    The compassion clubs are absolutely necessary, but only one step on the road to decriminalization. We must keep focused on the big picture which is not making criminals out of those who use it - FOR WHATEVER REASON!

    There will always be those who think it should be illegal and who turn it into a political issue. But it's not solely a medical issue, either. Challenging the laws by breaking them - en masse - is the only way things will change. That is how it was done in Holland.

    I'm not for handing out prescriptions to everyone, but if you have a legitimate medical concern, and you already know from experience that marijuana helps your condition, then it should be fine to get a script, even if there are other drugs to treat the condition. You shouldn't have to be on your deathbed to qualify.

    I agree with this, but you should not be lieing to your doctor to get a prescription. A doctor attended college for 8-12 years, they are the judge of what the best treatment is. Obviously, if your seeing a doctor in hopes of medical marijuana, they don't think that marijuana has no medicinal value.

    so what exactly qualifies someone to be able to get a MMJ script ? It seems like something like that would be difficult to get because they wouldnt want a whole bunch of stoners trying to get one when they dont have a good reason too.

    I'm not sure of all the conditions that qualify, but I do know that getting a cannabis club card in cali is a breeze. There's some doctors that you just pay a fee to visit and basically walk out able to get a card. I've never even been to cali, so of course, this is just what I've heard from people who have gotten cards.

    I am currently in the process of getting my MMJ stuff. I recently had to go to the hospital for my Asthma. I have done alot of research on Marijuana since I have been out of the hospital and have found that it actualy does help with Asthma (when used in the proper way)
    Remember everyone, Marijuana is still ILLEGAL Federaly. The chances of you being Federaly busted for it arnt big, but it still is illegal no matter which way you slice it.

    Consider Denver for a moment. The city legalized less than 1 oz. of MJ for adults over the age of 21.
    But remember, Its still illegal according to State and Federal Law. Sure you could fight the case, maybe you will win, maybe you wont.
    But in the big picture, its still illegal.

    If your sitting there growing a whole bunch of plants and having pounds of Marijuana laying around, and then Feds knock on your door, you better hope to god you have more than a flimsy presecription written.

    Anyway, as far as what is covered under the MMJ laws? Why not spend a few minutes and read the laws yourself.
    Go Google the following two laws
    "Prop 215"
    and
    "SB 420"

    Prop 215 was the first law written, (and unless im mistaken) SB 420 was the ammendment to it, so SB 420 is more current and revised. But its important to see the prop 215 text first tho.

    So, should a responsible person keep a liter of Jack and a carton of Marbolo's aroudn thier baby? Alot, of illegal shit is harmless. I don't think a few marijuana plants are going to hurt a baby.. at all.

    your pathetic...leave the medical stuff for ppl who actually need it cause clearly u dont, and u have done NO research on any of the things u are even perscribing yourself

    the last paragraph in your first post did it for me, along the lines of "i have chronic back pains but x-rays show nothing"

    gee..u know why? because chronic back pain usually isnt caused by anything to do with your back u moron, and since u said that in the first place i highly doubt u even went to a doctor to be diagnosed because if there was nothing on the xrays he would have either refered u to somone to could make insoles for your shoes, or a chiropractor for muscle tension relief

    clearly u dont know anything about any of the supposid claims u are using to try to get free weed, so dont even bother wasting your time

    They can prescribe marijuana for back pain? I have scholiosis on my lower spine, which causes daily back pain. I have had x-rays and plenty of doctor inspections of it, it's official that I have it. I've been to chiropractors which really don't do anything besides make me feel goofy for the rest of the day. Is this a reasonable cause for cannabis prescription? I hadn't heard about that until now.

    weed really does help with add....i refuse to take adderall or ritalin for my condition, a few hits of chronic does the job much better, and it doesnt have the side effects of amphetamines.

    i tried adderall for a month or two....it makes you paranoid, kills your appetite, and it makes you dick hibernate. plus its murder on your heat over the long term. just goes to show how intelligent the fda and dea are....lets give kids SPEED everyday, but keep marijauna illegal
