Allowing sick people medicine

This is a fairly controversial topic in the world we currently live in and I personally don't see why anyone could condone not allowing people to make their own choices on what substances to use to make them feel better.

This morning I was made aware that Gov. Sptizer has changed his mind on medical marijuana for sick people specifically people with debilitating diseases for example Multiple Sclerosis, AIDS, and cancer. With our current medical knowledge we cannot cure these diseases and the people that are stricken with these terrible diseases are in extreme pain. I hope that no one ever has to go through this pain but this is real life and I know that people every day are diagnosed and are suffering with diseases.

As some of you know I am no fan of Spitzer or really any other politician but Spitzer is beginning to realize he made a mistake with medical marijuana but not because he thinks people should be able to make their own decisions on what people can put in their own bodies but because who wants to be on the side saying a dieing person cant take this substance because it could what kill them (I have never heard of anyone dieing from smoking marijuana). The people with these diseases do not have the time or the energy to fight for this that is why people like you and I need to stand up and say let them do what they want as long as they do not hurt other people.
