POT USERS' VICTORY
SAN FRANCISCO - A federal law against marijuana doesn't apply to sick
people who smoke pot with a doctor's say-so, an appeals court ruled
yesterday.
The ruling was a blow to the federal government's fight against
medical marijuana. The Justice Department argued federal drug laws top
state laws.
