I trust government more than I trust anyone who makes excuses
for addicts who pillage their community in order to support
their "habit".

Government delineates what substances are legal to use as
medicines.  Doctors prescribe them.  This really isn't
that hard to figure out, nor is it inherently unreasonable.
There are instances (like MJ) in which the classification
of the substance is out of proportion to the danger it
poses or its potential usefulness, but as far as I'm
concerned all that means is that we should reclassify MJ.
