NAACP Endorses Pennsylvania Marijuana Legalization Bill

Woo hoo, this would only be a 3 hour drive away. You have to support this bill. How will you answer to your parents when they are crippled by spasticity and you didn't support one of the only  drugs that can help the condition?

Sativex, which is sprayed under the tongue as a cannabis mist, has been approved for use against multiple sclerosis, or MS, in Canada, the UK, and some European countries. (In the U.S., parent company GW Pharma is seeking FDA approval for the use of Sativex to treat cancer pain).

There is accumulating evidence that cannabinoid receptors may be involved in controlling spasticity, and that anandamide, the brain’s endogenous form of cannabis, is a specific antispasticity agent.

What the hell are you waiting for? Do you think the medical establishment is going to do anything about this on their own?

    1. Very unlikely and come on this should only be used for medical purposes. My excuse is my spasticity and stroke prevention.
