Rejected petition Make cannabis legal for medicinal reasons

More details

cannabis is proven to reduce pain in the human body, In america cannabis is legal as long as the user can prove it is for medicinal purposes. legalising cannabis would stop misuse and would also be another thing for the government to tax. Cannabis, if not toxidised, has no acctual effects. the THC simply attaches to the brain (to give a high) and then disolves. alcohol stays on the liver and rots. it is proven that cannabis was used in the thirteenth century for medicine. it should be legalised
