Reply #4: Glad that MAPS is pushing against the arbitrary restrictions on medical cannabis research. [View All]

Since NIDA has acknowledged that they do not exist to further good science in this regard, and the DEA is nothing more than jack-booted, gun-toting church ladies unfit to be grade school crossing guards, the prospects of success are dim.

Furthermore, as you no doubt know, even if NIDA/DEA got out of the way, MAPS would only be allowed to use the "approved" schwag produced at the government's pot farm at the University of Mississippi, marijuana that is so inferior (and dangerous) in every way that it wouldn't find a buyer anywhere if it was available on the streets.

Better that MAPS work with WAMM and Valerie Corral to provide safe and effective medical cannabis for the study. It was my honor to meet Valerie recently at the NORML convention. Quite a bundle of courage and compassion that woman is.
