Sorry to hear about your son. There's not going to be any medical marijuana in Indiana for a very long time. Republicans just won't allow it. Not sure what the rules are going to be next door in Illinois, though. Maybe a doctor over there can help you out when they finally get their whole system up and running. You'd be breaking the law by possessing the oils here, but bad laws should be broken. It's just a matter of weighing the costs and risks. I know what I'd do if it were one of my kids.I know I am coming into this conversation late but, I want to know when Indiana is going to approve medical pot. My son has severe seizures and the oil extract is said to do wonders for kids like this.
I have a hard time seeing heroin as a gateway drug. For most, it tends to be an endpoint, particularly when used intravenously. The gateway to heroin is usually prescription pain pills IME.Weed is a gateway drug for many people but not all. Some people smoke weed on the weekends or very seldom but still do. Those type of users are not at much risk of it becoming a gateway drug. It seems to me that the new step in or on the gateway ladder in heroin. There are many, many heroin addicts and heroin use is growing by the day. Anyone that has been around the addict scene much would say without a doubt it is bad stuff. I have never talked to a heroin (or any other drug) addict that didn't smoke weed first. I am sure there are some but I would guess it would be quite rare.
I think Indiana is doing it right. Keep it illegal and lower the penalties.
If that were true we'd have millions of heroin addicts. And yet, we don't.
As a direct result of " the law " not prosecuting those with weed related offenses .
BUT , as everybody and their brother knows , weed is a gateway drug and soon violent crime will be on the rise as those folks who chose to partake in that devil drug simply won't be able to get high anymore and have to move on to the harder drugs allowing their lives to spiral out of control .
Those folks will wake up some day in some back alley or in a van down by the river wondering what happened to their lives as the po po is arresting them for living a chaotic , murder and crime filled existence .
Just wait and see , it'll happen .
Weed makes you lazy and fat.....Don't worry, Wall-E will carry yer load....
Besides, it 10x more expense than the crap I used to buy.......
Sarcasm, I often don't use purple and that whole post was a jab at the TEOTWAWKI crowd . It's been over a year and the sky hasn't fallen .This or when they can't hold a job for being stoned or having fried their brain too much to form cognitive thoughts, how do they afford their weed? 6 months is not a good yardstick to measure by, give it at least a year though I do not imagine their will be much of a change then. I'd say look at it in 3 and then 5 years to get a solid read on the situation. Of course proponents of legal weed will skew and hand pick the facts they want while ignoring medical and criminal facts they don't like.
