Chuck Lane writes a two post take down on medical marijuana.
As turned off as I am by anything that includes the word "druggie", he more or less states my position. Personal drug possession should be among the lowest enforcement priorities and should not result in incarceration. If there is or was a legitimate medical marijuana movement it's been co-opted by people whose goal is decriminalization of recreational use--a defensible position but a dishonest approach to achieving it. Finally, this just isn't the way we do medicine.

thanks for the post.
I totally agree with the reversal on how some folks are looking to decriminalize marijuana overall. Backdooring it isn't cool.
