LUNGREN VS. MEDICAL POT
Attorney General Dan Lungren's attack on medical marijuana is in reality
based on his keen desire to challenge the entire proposition's legality.
His assumption that marijuana has no medicinal value is based on
conjecture.
If his theory were true, why have many physicians found marijuana useful as
a treatment for patients suffering from AIDS, glaucoma and chronic or acute
pain? Apparently there is no better medicinal substitute.
