Requiring the ill to grow their own medicine is bizarre and untenable.

There is no reason to deny any adult eligible to purchase beer and cigarettes-- much less patients with their physician's assent-- the ability to acquire their kind herb in the same way.

This Glaucoma patient visits Oaksterdam regularly, and enjoys it.

It is time to take George Washington's advice and "sow it everywhere".

How can Rhode Island lawmakers even consider having a law on the books that still makes people go out into the streets and buy medicine as if they were some sort of criminal? The legislature needs to pick up the pace on this one. They are certainly going in the right direction; but they need to work harder to make this law a reality--- not just a fairy tale.

Growing marijuana is commonplace in the Netherlands-there are "grow" supply shops all over Amsterdam.It can't really cost that much or so many people wouldn't be doing it.
