RE: U.S. Government Finally Admits… Cannabis Kills Cancer Cells

[theaustrianguy]

Why can't cannabis still be on the illegal drug list while used as medication? I don't see an interference here.
I don't want to say that I would not legalize it anyways, just curios why it should not work alongside... greets

The issue is not with the legality of it but rater the classification as a schedule 1 drug. The government's own research and official position now contradicts the definition of a schedule 1 drug on points 1, 2, and 3. Given the harms real people suffer to life liberty and health caused by this classification the only consistent thing to do is reclassify or decriminalize cannabis.

Schedule I substances are described as those that have the following findings:

1. The drug or other substance has a high potential for abuse.
2. The drug or other substance has no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States.
3. There is a lack of accepted safety for use of the drug or other substance under medical supervision.
