I can see both sides of the argument and I don't know which side to fall down on.
most, includng you don't know what cannabis is or does so you're not in a position to judge.
yes but to consenting adults who are also in pain, just look at it from a logical point of view
still trapped fiend yea?????????????
true and i agree, thing is, some people actually think she should go down for it and even those who sit on the fence need to put things in perspective a bit.
LOL, you can't be serious!?
How can you be "torn" over a story of an old granny getting collared by the plod for growing cannabis, eating it and distributing it to other medicinal users?
There can be no real arguments against legalisation of cannabis, medicinal or otherwise; just foolish reaction.
And as for this whole "oh, but it breaks the law", that's no argument. Only fools follow laws blindly; everything needs to be challenged.
Its about time this country sorted its priorities out tbh.
you're still trapped, i would help you but you need to help yourself first.
So fucking what if she breaks it? She distributes it, but apparently with the intent to help others relief their pain too.
What's the difference between prescribing morphine and cannabis?
So fuck the law - why can't you just get your head round it?
Why does "the law" matter so much in a case like this? There can be no real arguments against legalisation for medicinal purpose (and otherwise
laws-who made them, why, do they have the authroity to do so, utility of law, human freedom, existence, choice, matter, life.
Why does an old woman have to suffer from pains?
Oh FFS, come on. You need to leave your ivory tower.
Old grannies - or anyone else for that matter - smoking cannabis, or growing it, should be no concern of the law. That's just logic.
You have to understand, it's not a headache. It's actual pain.
I think her downfall is supplying it to others, but if it were legal, she wouldnt have to, but at least shes highlighting the cause.
but honestly, it helps so many people with so many compaints, and it's probably cheaper to produce and would take a huge berden off the shoulders of the police.
I wish there were people like that.
One question though: The article said about a "cookery club". Does that mean that they were selling these things to people who didn't know what's in them? I hope not.
I agree.
She obviously needs it, and she should be allowed to use it, but as the law currently stands (and it is a legal debate, rather than a moralistic one), she is breaking the law, and seeing as older people have gone to prison for not paying their TV licence and other such trivial matters, her age doesn't really come into it. Either way, either everyone or no one should go to prison for it. One makes much more sense than the other one, and this lady is a perfect example of it, but the law should be changed, not bended.
No, but a doctor could do that, and that's my point.
