I don't know about Bruno but I am claiming i n the entire
history of the world there is not been one confirmed case
of death by marijuana overdose, the same can not be said of
aspirin. In addition , recent studies have found that after
states in the USA legalized marijuana overdose deaths
from opioids DECREASED by 25%. O xycodone used for
chronic pain can kill you but marijuana can not, and it's only
a unfortunate historical accident that alcohol is socially
acceptable but cannabis is not.
(1) There are a lot of other painkillers
Yes, but except salvia, they are usually either more addictive (under
the same conditions) and more toxic, and more expensive.
and (2) marijuana is not equally effective as oxycodone and (3) in
many states and nations doctors can prescribe marijuana just as they
can other pain killers.
Well, Perou is just the sixth states in South-America to have
legalized medical cannabis, but in the US ii is illegal at the federal
level, and cannabis is still schedule one, which means no right to do
research, or only with many difficulties, ... Big-Pharma resists, and
we can understand.
And I'm 100% in favor of legalizing marijuana and have been for
decades - not because I think it has any amazing medical powers, but
because "the war on (some) drugs" is a civil rights disaster,
screwing up people's lives right and left and distorting law
enforcement (c.f. civil forefiture).
OK, we agree on this.

By the way, I have never smoked a marijuana cigarette in my
life, so far I've never had the need but if I ever get cancer I
would certainly start with a joint before I moved onto O xycodone
.
