Confirmed. Medical Marijuana Helps MS Spasticity.

https://www.cmaj.ca/content/early/2012/05/14/cmaj.110837

I know we already pretty much knew that marijuana helped with certain MS symptoms...
but, heres a link to be a pretty well run study that was just published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
researchers used a crossover design - 30 people smoked either a joint or a placebo that looked, tasted and smelled just like the real deal, but lacked active ingredients, once a day for 3 days in a row...
the results:
-Participants saw a 30 percent improvement in measures of spasticity after smoking the marijuana, but not after the placebo.
-Smoking marijuana significantly reduced pain scores (by 5.28 points on a visual analog scale) over placebo...
great news!!

Prohibition…goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man’s Appetite by legislation and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A prohibition law strikes a blow at the very priciples upon which our government was founded
