I, uh, know what current law is. I made this specific to health care as to override the "doctors" in the Mideast trying to determine what is a valid medical treatments. The federal government guarantees health care.
Kudos to you. I did was not sure exactly what the law was. It was in 2006, I think. Very good research.
As far as you argument...I see you are fan of Marokai's interpretation of a the word "demonstration" in Clause 13, Section 5, Article 1 of the Third Constitution. I myself respectfully disagree with it. I just don't see it that way, but then again I am a strict constructionist.
However, an argument could be made that the amendment to the above bill gives the region the right you are trying to take away from them.
As far as "doctors" (your quotes) and "valid medical treatments" (my sarcastic quotes, not at you but rather based on my experience), I have a friend who got a prescription for marijuana for headaches (probably due to the fact he was hung over) while his girlfriend got them for PMS. I do question a lot of the "doctors" (this time my quotes, because the guy who gave the prescription was not an MD or anything medical related). Thus, returning to my opinion that we should just legalize it and do away with the facade.
Just my opinion. While I was typing, I saw Tmth's post. he is right. I just wanted to respond in a way that I know someone would see the whole discussion. I will now depart.
