As more citizens learn how effective and relatively safe it is, and how it has been historically used medically for thousands of years, laws have changed to reflect those realities. About the only way remaining for prohibitionists to stop sick citizens from using marijuana is to stop them from voting on the issue. What kind of people strive to cage sick citizens for using what God indicates He created and says is good on literally the very 1st page of the Bible?
