Federal officers can break in to homes and destroy plants even if prescribed by doctors and permitted by local government.

Rep Power: 4 | | 2 ways out 1. There are opiates left that doctors can prescribe, but they are injected or swallowed-you need not smoke pain away.
2. Congress can still pass legislation to allow marijuana to be used as medicine-the Supreme Court has only cited Federal interest over that of States. | | Domain Names Sponsor | | |
