Court Rules Against Pot for Sick People
By GINA HOLLAND, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - Federal authorities may prosecute sick people whose doctors prescribe marijuana to ease pain, the Supreme Court ruled Monday, concluding that state laws don't protect users from a federal ban on the drug.

The decision is a stinging defeat for marijuana advocates who had successfully pushed 10 states to allow the drug's use to treat various illnesses.

Oh now, don't be so hard on Jeff....I think he actually has a cough.....went to the doc and was prescribed some of that medi-juana.....

He was in the kitchen taking care of his munchies when the first thread hit the board.



I asked him to do a re-post so I'd have an excuse to post up the cool pic :)
