Invisible L.A.

The important thing to note is that Medical Marijuana is approved in California, so much so that patients who reside here no longer suffer from chronic pain associate with some of the otherwise critical illness that other persons throughout the world suffer with, and if they do they still have one other option that probably the rest of the world does not. The remarkable thing about this is that here in California since Marijuana use is legal, doctors here prescribe the drug for many patients and in doses that can be altered according to the severity of the condition, here in California there are not restricted by guidelines nor just restricted to prescribing a substitute, the only limitations faced here are faced by the authorities who have to determine whether person grow the drug for medicinal purposes or recreational ones – and even that has been made simple as there are institutes here who specialize in prescribing this drug as a natural course of their treatment program and for patients of institutes such as these they are actually given identification card.

Whilst it had been hoped, that by now after some 40 years, the plant would have been accepted globally for it’s remarkable medicinal use against Chronic Pain, Aids Related illness, Mood Disorders, Wasting Syndromes, Chronic Muscle Plasticity and Intractable Nausea, the important thing to note is that is has not been accepted.

What more could the Federal Government need as proof, they themselves have done their own research and produced their own reports yet still all they are willing to allow is a substitute, that does not do as much as using the plant it self, it is widely noted that persons who use the pill complain that it does not work as effectively and that they still suffer quite enormously, it has already been proven that this drug is less toxic than most pharmaceutical drugs in current use, that said – one wonders what is the important thing to note here, why it is not being allowed or is it that it is being allowed but slowly and cautiously.

In California these question are no longer and issue and Medical Practitioners here swear by the drugs prolific healing powers and are moving full steam ahead, patients here also swear by it’s healing powers for want of a better description and have chosen in many instances to grow the plant themselves – the important thing to note is why then does the rest of the country need to put together petitions in order to ask the Federal government to grant them use of the drug not just by themselves as they maybe suffers of Chronic pain but they have seen it necessary to even rally the support of the families, relatives and love ones as they try to win this battle, the simple solution would be to uproot and move the California, but the right solution which of course is the important thing to note is to fight for equal rights and justice for all.

For the better part of more than four decades, there has been a War raging between Medical practitioners and the Federal Government, with the only casualties being the patients that continue to suffer -In almost every part of the county except for California many doctors have become frustrated with the mere fact that as practitioners they cannot prescribe a safe and reliable cure – The most significant or unbelievable factor, is that, there is to date no historical data that proves marijuana has ever been administered in a fatal dose – if this is a fact then it begs us to ask the responsible question as to why do we still have persons who continue to suffer, especially since the drug is less toxic than most pharmaceutical drugs in current use, and is certainly helpful for some patients, including those with wasting syndromes, chronic muscle plasticity and intractable nausea.

In 1999, a report commissioned by the White House, proved what has already been stated above. Medical practitioners in California are probably the only ones seeing a light at the end of the tunnel, since there is no state regulation or standard for the cultivation and/or distribution medical marijuana, and in some areas within California there is an allowance of up to 99 plants – giving physician the ability not to just prescribe the use of the drug but prescribe more in exceptional cases, there is yet still some hope for some as there is also a substitute available that may aid some but for chronic suffers the cry remains the same, the substitute does not work as effectively as the plant itself.

Reports coming out of California show that the top medical uses of the drug are as follows:
• 40% Chronic Pain
• 22% AIDS-Related
• 15% Mood Disorders
• (23% All other categories)

This leaves law enforcement with only one issue where the drug is concerned and that is differentiating whether or not a person possesses the drug for medical or recreational purposes.
In 1968 Medical Practitioner thought, that this plant was well on it way to being established as a plant for medical use some five years after they initially indicated what it can do – but some 40 years later – Medical Practitioners in California seem to be the only one’s who have been successful – in case you did not know after the passage Compassionate Use Act 1996 – Proposition 215 it is now legal for patients to speak with their physician regarding the use of medical marijuana, the good news is that for patients in California they have found the cure for their chronic pain, and suffering with certification going as far as the issuance id card for patients using the drug and full support for California medical centers established solely for this purpose – all other as person especially desperately ill people are left as at 2002 – with the support of their friends, families and loved ones to deliver a case in order to petition the government not to deprive, them of medicine that relieves their suffering.

The ban on new medical marijuana dispensaries is invalid ruled a Superior Court judge on Monday. The ruling blocks Los Angeles’ efforts to close medical marijuana stores. The Superior Court judge also ordered an injunction against enforcing the ban against Green Oasis, a dispensary in Playa Vista on Jefferson Boulevard just west of the 405 Freeway. In a complaint, it was alleged by a narcotics officer that the medical marijuana dispensary sold him one-eighth of an ounce of marijuana for $55 and that 60 strains were available.

The decision came on the same day as a Justice Department memo made official President Obama’s official policy change guidlines. The Obama guidelines limit federal prosecution of medical marijuana users and dispensaries.

The Los Angeles moratorium on medical marijuana dispensaries is based on local zonal laws that prohibit new dispensaries. But the ban which took effect Sept. 14, 2007 allows 186 dispensaries to stay open for business. The Compassionate Use Act that was passed in 1996 allows the use of medical marijuana in California.
