Thats why people should take their own decisions and find the medicine for themselves. No need to wait for the governments to approve anything.
I watched many documentaries where people in Mexico and other places are healed from cancer by following raw food diet.
Humans can heal themselves without any need for chemicals. We need to learn everything the right way.
Great work :)
Yes, people should self medicate without govt permission. Agreed!
But remember, in many places, those who do so are forced to hide, forced to pay enormous prices, and forced to participate with the sometimes-dangerous black market.
And many who do so are thrown into prison for it. I have several friends right now across Canada rotting in prison cells for peacefully growing plants and giving the medicine away to sick people.
And many die for it. In Indonesia the government is killing thousands of cannabis users right now - dozens every week. Simply for USING cannabis. And they've legalized murder of cannabis users. Many Western governments including the USA have praised their tactics.
So it's not just as simple as saying "everybody should medicate without permission and that's that". In fact it's a little unfair and simplistic imo.
My wife @MediKatie is in jail tonight in downtown Vancouver. Her crime? Standing up for her right to use cannabis and "obstructing" police from attempting an illegal search. We have been harassed, evicted in the middle of night, slandered, shunned, and assaulted because we refuse to wait for the government to approve our right to peacefully use cannabis.
We don't ask anyone to pay for it, just to stop hurting us and stealing from us for buying and using it. But that's too much to ask, apparently! : (
