Pot-smoking Mountie can't smoke in uniform, RCMP says

The science supporting medicinal cannabis far exceeds that which is used to vaccinate millions every year with useless toxic brews. What does exist is a revenue stream so powerfully guarded and maintained that it has subverted and corrupted the scientific establishment. Like I've said before the situation as pertains to medical cannabis constitutes a crime against humanity. You may examine to case of industrial hemp where you will encounter the exact same blocking by vested interests at huge cost to society and industry.
I have heard countless government ministers agents and spokespeople say exactly what you have, that "no science exists" while I have no problem finding it by the ton. It is estimated that fully 1/3 of present pharmasueticles would be rendered unsellable if and when cannabis is widely available. The figure for industrial applications also provides a similar picture.
The same criminal preferential treatment for synthetics versus herbals is responsible for millions of people needlessly suffering years of pill ingestion to enrich the powerful drug manufacturers. No synthetic will ever exceed or even match the ten thousand year testing of traditional medications.

Here's a free tip from someone who works in the pharmaceutical industry. If you find someone hawking a single therapy that has zero side effects, it's probably not true. The fact that various forms and routes of marijuana treatments show side effects is hardly surprising. It contains active compounds... The therapeutic effects of marijuana, whether smoked, or whether ingested in single compound purified forms, intravenously, whatever vehicle or route you want to choose, has been found to be an effective treatment across a wide range of indications, in clinically sound, randomized, double blinded, controlled experiments.
For anyone who says otherwise, well that's just simply untrue, and more likely a reflection of an internal bias, which is especially ironic when they want to see rigorous study designs! :lol: I will say however that in some instances, the benefits have been greatly exagerated. However, there's plenty of evidence that it is an effective treatment, as an analgesic, as an anti-emetic, for treating refractory spasticity in MS patients...there is evidence from a wide range of studies.
As for the Mountie, there are options available if his employer won't allow smoking while on duty.

I don't smoke it for starters I bake it in cookies. If I accidentally get high I can't sleep until it wears off. So I don't get high, I have half a cookie and it takes care of the aches and pains that prevent me from sleeping and I drift off shortly after. It takes longer to take affect because it has to be digested, but it works for me in about 1/2 an hour.
If you get the chance watch Sanjay Gupta's program on CNN called Weed. It is very very interesting. and might surprise you.
I would agree. The news had a report that any RMP Officer prescribed MJ would have to see another Doctor to confirm the need. Bet it is ones picked by the Office. Many Drs will not prescribe MJ and use the reason, not sure of the contents.
What do you call scientific evidence? How about the fact that it has been used as a medicine for thousands of years? Big Pharma nor the government that resides in their pockets is interested in proving a plant that anyone can grow has medicinal properties because there is no money in it for them. There is however a vested interest by many government employees to keep pot illegal.
No way! It's just a plant! And no plants have scientifically proven medical qualities. I mean, saying that smoking pot can help medically would be like prescribing 'rat tail' for a fever, or willow bark tea for a head ache, or poppies for pain. It would just be ridiculous.
Except that it all works. You need purple ink or walmart will think you are serious.LOL
So drugs that are illegal should never be used to treat a persons illness. Is that correct?
Tha's because you're getting off on the drug-that how being high affects some people believe it or not.
IOW you are completely FOS.
I don't post much about this here but I doubt CNN could teach someone of my experience anything about Cannabis.
I think there has to be a sensible solution to this so that Ron Francis can take his "medication" and be able to perform the duties of his job. But I suppose one shouldn't hold his/her breath for this to happen. The wisdom of the powers that be recognize marijuana as being a legitimate treatment for disease, even though there are those in the medical profession who say there are many more effective treatments than marijuana. We already have ample proof that when it comes to sensible decision making the R.C.M.P. has sadly failed. Get the man back to work and stop this nonsense.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the plant that should be getting all the attention is it's cousin, hemp, it is already legal and we could have all sorts of fabrics that last 20 years with hard use. Heath foods that make it possible to eat one meal a day and still be overly active if you wish. Oh well, give us something to do once everybody is high. Be right back ......

I hope his normal joint isn't at the top of the quality ladder and to be truthful he should volunteer for the most mundane duty in the deepest part of the basement.

There is much literature about psychoses associated with use of cannabis, usually temporary.. but sometime triggering underlying schizophrenic pre-dispositions.
It is a powerful narcotic.. without any PROVEN therapeutic benefits. It is also an intoxicant. The last thing you need in an on duty police officer with a car and a gun.
Anyone familiar with habitual use will know the pathological levels of paranoia, extreme subjectivity and inwardness, apathy and the distorted reality associated with drug.
Everyone i knew, with any sense, quit it in their mid 20s as simply too disruptive to their lives (as i did).

If you and the others had kept smoking you would have immediately recognized the business potential for becoming a hemp farmer down to being able to develop your own strain and design the planting and harvesting equipment as once it is baled the is processing machines already on the (right) shelves. Instead this kind of thread holds your attention for months most likely.
