This is disappointing to the patients who could benefit from medical marijuana. The DEA needs to reschedule marijuana from a Schedule I substance to a Schedule II so meaningful research can be done instead is Jeff Session repeating ignorant propaganda from the 1930s.
Last Week Tonight on HBO recently did a piece on marijuana. Theu showed a veteran in Kentucky testifying that marijuana treats his PTSD more effectively and with less side effects than what the VA doctors prescribe (some of which are more addictive than weed, xanax for example.). But, VA doctors being federal employees can't legally write prescriptions for medical marijuana he could fill in another state. But, if he did it would be a crime to bring it back home to Kentucky. It's a mess. Anyone interested should give it a watch.
