Conservative US state votes for medical marijuana
Posted by Eric Smith on 15th November 2010 4:06pm
Having cannabis illegal whilst alcohol remains legal is the height of hypocrisy. Particularly heinous though is when governments prevent the use of marijuana for medical use, when it is proven useful for certain conditions. Now one of the most Conservative US states, Arizona, has voted to legalise the use of medical marijuana. It is apt that conservatives would vote to legalise, since drug prohibition is not a feature consistent with the founding principles of that country, nor of Australia. Drug prohibition is largely a creature of the mid-late 20th century. |
