15 states and DC have legalized marijuana for ADULT use and possession, yet it remains on Schedule I of the federal narcotics scheme. Drugs placed in Schedule I are believed to be the most dangerous, most addictive and have NO medical use.
While it is difficult to get funding for the research on the medical use of marijuana, many private studies have concluded that marijuana has an abundance of medicinal purposes, especially when treating the side effects of cancer patients receiving chemotherapy and radiation. Furthermore, other proponents state that marijuana/cannabis is no more dangerous than alcohol and criminalization of marijuana has disproportionately impacted “Black and Brown” communities.
Where do you stand on the issue? Should marijuana and cannabis products be taken off Schedule I? Should we begin to de-criminalize other drugs for personal use as they have in Oregon?
