Legal Weed As Medical Treatment for Veterans

I think it would be good for it to be legalized. It would help a lot of soldiers that are going through a lot of personal issues. Most people really need a helping hand to get a better feeling and that’s why soldiers would be able to use medical weed as there fix to solutions. Others see weed as a bad thing, but scientific facts show that it helps a lot of people pull through hard situations or help with life issues.

The effects of medical marijuana on veterans in pain and ‘the relationship between treatment programs involving medical marijuana that are approved by States, the access of veterans to such programs, and a reduction in opioid abuse among veterans.’ The bill allocates $15 million for the research. It helps a lot of people, but the problem is people do like it people make it seem like people are bad for it but the reason they do it is very big. A lot of people don’t realize weed calms people down in so many ways. Instead of judging the person right away think on what they probably went through before they started smoking weed and using it as an escape route from all their problems.

I just feel like this is a very good decision that they are making but I feel like if they do that for the army their going to have to do it for other government jobs. This will cause people to protest the situation and just cause a big problem and then they will realize they have to make it equal for everyone. Just a lot of consequences come from making that decision and it will just be very wild.

Several states in the U.S. have approved the use of marijuana for medical and/or recreational use. Veterans should know that federal law classifies marijuana including all derivative products as a Schedule One controlled substance. This makes it illegal in the eyes of the federal government. I just don’t see what is wrong with people smoking weed now a lot of places are legalized and a lot are so close to having it finalized. You just got to take it in consideration that a lot of people look forward to this becoming legal but at the same time you got a variety of people that don’t want it to be legal because a lot of people can buy very easy now. But at the same time, I feel like if they make it legal they should release a lot of people that went to jail for if they’re allowing soldiers to be able to smoke it.

I believe this is very good for a lot of people in the army because a lot of them suffer from PTSD and a lot more and it could really be a help for them. I just feel like people just go along with this, so it could help soldiers live life better and give them the same access to things people have. Its only right if soldiers can have the opportunity to have a vote or something to get weed legalized for them so they can release some stress by smoking or doing whatever people be doing that involves weed. I know for a fact that %90 of the soldiers in the U.S military would love for them to legalize weed, so they can have something to really help them then getting prescribed some meds. But its all up to if they’re going to legalize it and give soldiers a thing they can lean to when there not feeling right because it helps a lot with problems soldiers go through daily.

”Some of the local growers along the coast here see it as an act of medical compassion: Donating part of their crop of high-potency medical marijuana to ailing veterans, who line up by the dozens each month in the echoing auditorium of the city’s old veterans’ hall to get a ticket they can exchange for a free bag.”
