Since it was brought up in another post, I would like to discuss it further.

Cannabis has been used effectively  to relieve various ailments for 
thousands of years.
It not a drug, but a safe and non-toxic herb. It is prohibition that is 
dangerous, not the plant.

The even bigger crime, are the methods by which cannabis became listed 
in the schedule 1. If you look up the quotes of Anslinger during his 
campaign  against marijuana, you will see that it was motivated by 
racism. By today's standards, it was full of civil rights violations, 
and blatant racial profiling.
