Feds to issue new medical marijuana policy

http://apnews.myway.com/article/20091019/D9BE5D2G0.html

Federal drug agents won't pursue pot-smoking patients or their sanctioned suppliers in states that allow medical marijuana, under new legal guidelines to be issued Monday by the Obama administration.
I like Obama being president

We were talking about this in our Gov class last week that the Obama admin was just going to "turn teh other way" and not inforce the Federal law.

So guess they are taking it a step up haha

The "War on Drugs" needs to be abandoned, it is a huge waste of money.

War on drugs is a failure. Wastes too much money, yet crime still happens. Especially the war on weed. Hilarious how there has NEVER been a death from smoking it, and the creation of the rules have been proven false =p. Yet it is still illegal.

Alcohol should be more illegal than weed.

agree... but if Anheuser-Busch were a marijuana growing company... then weed would have been legal and Alcohol would be illegal.

I don't know, look at your typical ghetto neighborhood. Crime/rape/theft/murder all run rampant. Granted, it is localized, but a controlled environment it is not.

Unless you were being tin foil hat sarcastic...
