    Marijuana is a medicine, it is scientifically proven to cure cancer. it attacks only the cancer cells while leaving be the other bodily cells. you see the good it does for the other 19 or so states that have legalized medical cannabis. we need to help the people who need! WE HAVE RIGHTS!

    Marijuana should be legal for medical as also for recreactional. I can bearly eat. I've got a lot of back problems. Plus I hav e bad nerves. Smoking marijuana helps all that and more. There has been no reported deaths due to marijuana. I also believe it would slow down the uses of other drugs like k-2 and meth considering its the high those drug users are looking for. I don't believe marijuana should even be considered a drug. Its a herb. A natural pain killer that don't effect the mind state as bad as a lot of these other over the counter and under the counter medicines do.

    I am a Chrons Disease Patient, Imagine waking up every morning with nausea/vomiting with severe joint pain in your knees and other joints that is unbearable. I refuse to accept pain narcotics for the long term effects and addiction they cause. I was so dependant on them that if I was not constantly taking them, I could not go in public or family get togethers without coming home to only pray to my God that I wish I could find something to control the anxiety and pain. My prayer was answered by discovering the miracles marijuana worked. I am currently off all narcotics and told the doctor " Your not Helping me your HURTING me, by giving me medicine that is leading to dependancy and that is something I can not continue." So I voluntarily asked to not be prescribed them any more. So before you fire back saying " Medical Marijuana is Already legal... it called Marinol." Let me tell you something.. MARINOL IS DIFFERENT! Know why? Because I have a Prescription of Marinol and it does not near justify the effects Raw cannabis has. Next time a bill is due under review, Keep individuals like myself in mind. It is pretty pathetic I have to self medicate to control a disease that controls me. We need to regulate cannabis for the individuals that NEED it. California and the other 17 odd states have proven it is EFFECTIVE and RELIABLE. I really hope this Bill/Act is pursued with authority and have a process that will help other individuals, it tears me up knowing that the Cop following behind me on the street could possibly Arrest me not knowing that the person he is putting in cuffs has a serious illness. Once again know how I know this? Becasuse it has happened to me and hundreds of other individuals just like me and does every single day. I feel that this is a violation of my Freedom,Religion, and Personal Wellbeing. I realize this message may never be seen by someone in Congress or State Authority, but as a proud American I am and to do the best of my abilty to abide by the law, But I will NOT let the government stand in the way of my health. I hope someone with a bigger voice than myself reads this and takes in consideration to help the people that need it. Even if you dont support the recreational uses at least help people that need it medicinaly.Lets stand up as a State and a community to beat this thing once and for all!

    if we can drink and smoke cigs we should be able to smoke this too. its much safer than several other recreational things that we do to calm ourselves and it treats so many different illnesses.

    I was diagnosed with carpel tunnel syndrome and tendonitis at the age of 12, then shingles at 14. I support the legalization of medical marijuana for people like myself who live life everyday in pain and suffering.

    Knowing that medicinal marijuana could have eased the pain my father faced during chemotherapy, I fully support this Bill. Watching him suffer from lack of appetite, achy body and terrible weight loss i understand how this drug can help ease so many people's pain.

    Marijuana is a non-toxic, and safe alternative to many painkilling medications. Legalization of marijuana nationally would save our country $10 billion a year that is spent enforcing the prohibition. Imagine how much money could be saved in Kentucky alone! There are more people arrested for marijuana in Kentucky than violent crimes including murder, rape, and aggressive assault. Let's be state that moves forward and steers away from prohibition laws. Let's be the next state that legalizes medicinal marijuana!
