“Federal
authorities should rescind their prohibition of the medical use of marijuana
for seriously ill patients and allow physicians to decide which patients
to treat. The government should change marijuana’s status from that
of a Schedule I [prohibited] drug ... to that of a Schedule II drug...and
regulate accordingly.”
-- Dr. Jerome Kassirer, Editor, New England Journal of Medicine, January
30, 1997
"If the government can't keep drugs away from inmates who are locked in steel cages, surrounded by barbed wire, watched by armed guards, drug-tested, strip-searched, X-rayed, and videotaped – how can it possibly stop the flow of drugs to an entire nation?"
– Ron Crickenberger
