Can anyone name what "medical problem" it would be that would require attendees to light up DURING the "festival?"
What? They can't make it from noon to five without hitting their weed, or take a break and come back...they need to hit their medical marijuana during the festival.
Do they care about second hand smoke, or just their right to hemp?
I'm sure that medical marijuana will be effective in allowing them to overcome their serious illnesses to allow them to dance around in tie dyed shirts and skirts, too.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all in favor of medical marijuana, but don't bullshit me. If you wanna get high, get high, but don't discredit a medical intervention by making a grand gesture of getting stoned at a festival as an act of "solidarity."
When I lived in San Francisco, the director of the local medical marijuana "clinic" would make a big show of lighting up when they'd have public events to promote the clinic - yet he had no medical problem!
You'd think someone who is serious about establishing something as a legitimate medical intervention would insist on doing it properly. I don't recall seeing people without cancer shooting up on chemo in support of its use for patients.
Bloody Hell, that clinic also used to allow each patient to bring someone who the clinic allowed to get stoned with them...they should call that the Rush Limbaugh approach.
In this case, every person dancing around at that festival like Jerry Garcia is still alive deserves to get kicked in the ass and driven to the clink. Not for smoking an illegal substance, but for parasitizing a medical issue for their own pleasure. Be honest, for crying out loud.
Peace.
