We the People, Cannabis and Chronic Pain

Below is a link to an excellent powerpoint presentation on Cannabis and the treatment of chronic pain.  It is a detailed explanation of how Cannabis relieves pain written by two medical doctor/researchers.  Other than their statement that pharmacists MUST be involved in dispensing and advising Cannabis use, and the idea they present that taking this should always be done legally, I found the presentation to be illuminating and well informed and immensely inspiring!  While it would be optimal if we could go to a pharmacist to receive assistance with using Cannabis for pain, and if this medicine was accepted as legal and in fact a right of being human to use, this is not possible for every person in every state due to the restrictions currently now imposed on We The People being able to use this healing plant without being harassed by the governments regressive attitude toward complete legalization.
