The word disabled – what does it mean?? Webster’s Dictionary states it is: To deprive of legal right, qualification, or capacity; to make incapable or ineffective; to deprive of physical, moral or intellectual strength. Then by qualifying someone as disabled, are we depriving him/her of legal rights, or of physical, moral or intellectual strength? Y-E-S !!!


How dare someone tell me they can prescribe morphine, vicodin, percocet. Make the drugs most addictive, name the most addictive drug, they can give me and I can be a walking member of the society by taking that garbage, but my doctor, who has prescribed it for me, can’t prescribe medicinal marijuana? Why? Because we have an idea everybody who does it sits around smoking.
