Marijuana mystery in Texas [Effect Measure]
http://newage.org/ health/ marijuana-mystery-in-texas-effect-measure/
I sometimes wonder if ordinary people in Texas are as stupid as many of the leaders they elect, but the evidence is that most aren’t. Take the west Texas jury who heard case of Tim Stevens of Amarillo, 53 years old, and suffering from HIV/AIDS. He also had a cyclical vomiting syndrome, for which he treated himself with a toke here or there from some inhalable Mary Jane. So who cares? Some asshole who notified police after they saw Stevens share a joint on a friend’s porch. They nabbed him with a twelfth of an ounce of marijuana and he was charged with a Class B misdemeanor, with a possible 6 months in the can and a $2000 fine.
