    Society hates drugs because they're drugs, not because they're bad

    Now hear me out. I dont do any drugs, and I dont really see any point to. In a general verasity, drugs are bad (ie, coke, meth) . But there is a guy out there, who had cancer, and he drank liquid marijuana, and somehow he was cured (he was given 2 years to live I believe). Now after his life was spared, he decided to give this drink to others who had cancer (he gave it to them for free mind you) and most all of them became cured. This guy has been arrested for doing this a few times. My question is: Why? Because he's trying to help people who arent going to survive anyways? Because he's giving it away for free, and not FORCING anyone to take it. He's getting arrested because he is giving away drugs, essentially.

    I'd like to hear some thoughts on this matter, I figure most people will agree that this guy has the right to do this, and he isnt harming anyone (as far as I know, maybe the drugs have a reverse effect, but do something else?) I personally feel that a lot of these people are going to die, so they have the right to try if they want. so what does everyone think? If you disagree with me, I would like to hear your thoughts ;)

    I think that guy who's been giving liquid marijuana shouldn't have done so. He's not a doctor. Let the doctors do their thing. Besides, everybody's health condition is different. Person A gets cured doesn't mean Person B will also get cured. Yes, the people are going to die anyway. But if they got killed by the liquid marijuana, that guy will become the murderer.

    But it's not totally that guy's fault. It's also 2 sided as well. Each of the recipient has their own choice. They can decide to accept the liquid marijuana or not themselves. When people are in a dead end, they will try anything. They wish for miracles.

    Yeah I get he isnt a doctor. but the thing is, the doctors are saying you have 2 months to live (Im talking about people where the cancer cant be cured). I dont think the guy becomes a murderer, if it goes under any classification its suicide, but the thing is, they will die anyways, so it doesnt really matter (if its meant for the better, and not a gun shot you know?) The thing is, it cant be sold off as false hope, thats not right. The thing is it might work. The fact hes doing it for free is good, because other-wise hes making money off of people possibly dieing which isnt right.

    yeah as long as they get to choose. Im not sure I'd take it, maybe, but I would be concerned about side effects, but then again who cares? your going to die =/ but maybe they are miracles, though its still relying on physicallity to be cured, so I dont know lol

    Society doesn't like drugs for the same reason they don't like gluttons. Except worse, because it alters your state and makes you unpleasant to be around (unless you're into drugs too)

    Did you bother to read my post? What Im saying is that society deems a form of [possible] medication, as wrong, because it has the term 'marijuana' attached to it. Why is it wrong to give someone a last resort when they will in fact die

    I think arresting this man is totally unjust, he's not making any money from it, and he's not forcing anybody to take it. It really seems like he's trying to help, and if these people are terminal I honestly don't see the harm in it.
    And who cares if sociaty doesn't like it, ultimately it shouldn't be sociaty's choice whether or not an individual decides to take that path.

    Marijuana is really misunderstood. I personally don't think its harmful.

    @Bassist - Agreed. If he was selling it, yes I would have a problem with it (more or less depending on if it worked). I was thinking how retarded it is that he's getting arrested, and the fact is, it has nothing to do with it doing harm to anyone, but just because thats just what you do. The thing is, the law has nothing to do with it, people will be doing cocaine regardless of if theres a law saying not to. Its just like gun license, so that criminals dont get guns. got bad news, but criminals get guns illegally so it doesnt do anything

    @Promethea - I have heard that before, I am not sure what the side effects are ?

    Generally mild to moderate, such as Taco Bell and Doritos.
