The Medical Letter and Pathetic Innocence about Medical Marijuana
This is pernicious misinformation that both amuses and beguiles me because of its innocence of factual information. It appears it comes from ten year old information peppered with the information from the Reefer Madness movie.
About 1,000,000 marijuana users are arrested each year. This means as least 10 to 20 million people are using it with minimal adverse effects.
US: Patent Office Raises High Hopes, Then Snuffs Them Out

US MT: Medical Marijuana - Converts And Critics
Bozeman Daily Chronicle, 18 Jul 2010 - Gallatin County has the second-highest number of registered medical marijuana patients in Montana. Who are they, where do they get it, and how will changes at the state and local levels affect them? Every night, Boyd Nelson is jarred awake by the sound of his wife Bonita's scream.
US MT: Medical Marijuana Laws Too Vague, Law Enforcement
Bozeman Daily Chronicle, 18 Jul 2010 - Montana's voters may have had good intentions when they passed a law in 2004 to legalize medical marijuana, but the law has left too much to interpretation and has led to abuses, Gallatin County law-enforcement authorities say. The primary problem is enforcement, they say. The statute is so vague, it leaves them scratching their heads when it comes to upholding it leaves room for exploitation.
US NM: Editorial: Bringing Safe Medical Marijuana To Our Region
Silver City Sun-News, 18 Jul 2010 - If not for the press release and subsequent news story, most southwest New Mexico residents wouldn't know that a new medical marijuana provider has been licensed for Catron County. Which is a good thing. Area residents who are certified to consume cannabis for medical reasons will now be able to obtain their supply without needing to travel to Albuquerque, while the rest of us should notice no difference at all.

The Daily Inter Lake, 18 Jul 2010 - It can't be soon enough for Montana's political leaders to start grappling with the unintended consequences of a medical marijuana law approved by voters in 2004. Thankfully, lawmakers have been meeting in Helena recently to craft some solutions well ahead of next year's legislative session.
US CA: Going To Pot: Eureka Council Set To Consider Medical
Times-Standard, 18 Jul 2010 - While the big item on Tuesday's Eureka City Council agenda is the city's 2010-2011 budget, the others aren't exactly lightweights. City staff is recommending that the council introduce a medical marijuana ordinance on Tuesday that has been months in the making. The council is also scheduled to consider the city's comments on a draft environmental impact report for a massive subdivision in Cutten and the approval of an expanded no-smoking ordinance in the city in what promises to be a marathon of a meeting.
US MT: Talk Of The Town - Helena Abuzz With Ways To Reform
Bozeman Daily Chronicle, 18 Jul 2010 - During the 2009 legislative session, medical marijuana advocates rallied in Capitol rotunda and brought some very fragrant marijuana for show. Lawmakers from both parties -- some curious, some bemused - strolled about the event, then went back to their business -- business that, for the most part, had nothing to do with medical marijuana.
US ME: Marijuana Price Affected By Fears Of Black Market
Maine Sunday Telegram, 18 Jul 2010 - Concerns about affordability arise as dispensary operators set prices high to prevent resale on the streets. Maine's new network of medical marijuana dispensaries is expected to make the drug more accessible to disabled and ill patients.

US ME: Medical Marijuana: Price A Key Issue For Patients
Morning Sentinel, 17 Jul 2010 - Maine's new network of medical marijuana dispensaries is expected to make the drug more accessible to disabled and ill patients. Making it affordable may be another matter, however. While the dispensaries are state-licensed nonprofits, most plan to charge virtually the same prices as illegal dealers charge on the street -- from $300 to $400 an ounce. At those prices, a typical patient with cancer or multiple sclerosis might spend $500 to $600 or more each month to relieve their symptoms with medication that is not covered by insurance.
