this was from one of the articles about the gov. case: The government argued that if a single exception was made to the Controlled Substances Act, it would become unenforceable in practice. The government also contended that consuming one's locally grown marijuana for medical purposes affects the interstate market of marijuana, and hence that the federal government may regulate—and prohibit—such consumption. to me, just a lot of words, but in reality, it looks as if she wanted to circumvent what I would want to be sure happened and that is CONTROL of the pot. IF sh is growing her own, there is no control. WHat keeps her sons and grandsons etc from helping themselves to Granny's stash? And you and I both know that the government is going to find a way to tax this stuff if they make it legal to use.
