Welcome to the Pot Legalization Organization (P.L.O.) We are a group determined to fight for the legalization of marijuana. We will prove through research and other proof that marijuana is no more harmful than alcohol or tobacco, in fact it is proven to be beneficial to long term and short term health with the only side affect being a great feeling of euphoria. Therefore, marijuana should be legalized. Law enforcement should stop arresting smokers for simply taking up a private hobby which bothers no one and simply affects the smoker in a positive way (relieves stress, nausea,stimulates appetite, and relieves insomnia). Get involved in the Drug War and let them know where you stand. We should follow the examples of other respected countries around the world decriminalizing marijuana for personal,economical, industrial, and medical reasons(Holland, Britain, Canada, Spain, etc...). AMERICA, GET WITH THE PROGRAM!

I desperately want off ALL my pain meds. Yes, one of them is a narcotic. I learned about medical marijuana today. I am confused and extremely angry that this is not available. THERE WAS A 25% DROP IN DEATHS DUE TO OPIOIDS IN STATES WHERE MARIJUANA IS LEGALIZED ! Can't you understand there are people desperate for help? One lady got off of 26 different medications because of medical pot ! I'm not hearing any negatives, at all, about medical pot. It truly concerns me that you have an inability to go in a positive direction on this subject. This is sooo easy for you to fix. So WHY aren't you fixing such an easy problem ? You appear to have ZERO compassion for so many people suffering. I just don't get it. Thank God elections are right around the corner.

I am not a pot smoker but know that it is no worse than alcohol use. There are many medical benefits too that we are being deprived of. People are using it regardless and the ones who want it are getting it anyway. Wake Up ! There are millions of dollars being lost from tax benefits we could inherit from it. Lets get smart and put our country out of debt. Right now the privatized jails are the only ones reeking profits from it.

Numerous studies have shown that not only is weed safer than tobacco, but also more helpful medically. India should leaglize weed to the same status it held before the badly thought out NDPS act, put in place due to american pressure. From a religious standpoint, the atharva Veda calls marijuana as one of the 'five sacred plants' of Hindu doctrine. And from an economic and environmental standpoint, this one plant provides more commercially viable products than any other. I believe its about time we legalize marijuana around the world and hope that the Indian government could set a precedence in this regard.

Dear fed, You are 50 year outdated in this schedule. At least classify this drug appropriately. This the United States of America, the greatest nation on earth, and doctors and scientists have been making breakthroughs in their studies. Why still the propaganda? You see what the people want. Give it to them.
