HARDER TO DOSE MARIJUANA CORRECTLY
I have a response to those screaming how opium and cocaine are used
medically. There is a huge difference. Opium and cocaine are refined
to exacting standards so a doctor can perscribe these drugs at
therapeutic levels. Considering marijuana in its raw form is not does
not contain consistant levels of THC that would make perscription
impossible. That would be like my doctor giving me a bucket of
oxycontin and telling me to nosh on afew to ease the pain, sooner or
later I'll get the dosage right.
