Good to see justice prevail in this case. This is just yet another of the many examples of how cannabis prohibition is a colossal failure. Anyone who has seen the PBS documentary "Prohibition" knows that the "noble experiment" of alcohol prohibition only increased use, increased violence, and created "criminals" out of otherwise law abiding citizens. We're seeing the same thing here. With cannabis, a drug safer than alcohol & tobacco & caffeine, people looking to relax with an alternative to those live in fear of being fired, being evicted from their residence, and having their children taken by CPS.
The Oregon Board of Pharmacy voted on June 16, 2010 to officially recognize cannabis as a legitimate and safe form of medicine for a variety of illnesses and ailments, most predominantly of which is relief from chronic pain conditions. On top of that, the American Medical Association and many other groups support medical cananbis law reform. Anyone who pretends that cannabis is not a medicine is willfully ignorant, simple as that.
Mike Winters just lost his case after fighting it up to the Supreme Court of the US. It's time he and the other prohibitionists to wake up to reality and forget the refer madness propaganda mentality. Sorry guys, the people of Oregon have made their choice, it's time for you cops to accept it and live with it, whether you like it or not.
