Isn’t marijuana too dangerous to use as a medicine?
In 1988, the DEA’s own chief administrative law judge ruled that marijuana is “one of the safest therapeutically active substances known.” It has never caused a lethal overdose, unlike OxyContin, Tylenol, and even water. The Journal of the American Medical Association reported in 1998 that each year there are 106,000 fatal adverse drug reactions in hospitals. Tylenol kills about 500 people per year. While all medications have side effects, marijuana’s are far less dangerous than death.
had to throw my 2 cents in on this one… although weed is ILLEGAL and alcohol is LEGAL the facts are that weed has never killed anyone, no one has ever overdosed on weed, etc. im sorry but i support the whole making weed legal. i really think that its what most of the people need in this world. example… people go smoke a joint weather home or not, and the stress , anger, tention, rage, etc. will lessen. 99% of any pot smoker ive ever known has been a calmer , nicer, (although they may not make much sense for an hour or two) person all in all
