NO DANGER

I find it odd that the issue of medical marijuana is being distorted
for political reasons as being harmful.

To compare pot to cigarettes and alcohol is wrong. The number of
deaths from pot are zero while the other two kill by the millions each
year.

Marijuana as a gateway drug has been proven wrong, too. Marijuana is
unique in that it has a medical use with no known lethal limit. If you
smoke too much pot, you just fall asleep. If you drink too much, you
get a hangover, or worse - you can die of acute alcohol poisoning.

By every measure, there's no comparing pot to killers like alcohol and
cigarettes.
