Now OKCSHOOTER, we don’t want to talk about that. We want to find a reasons to Legalize marijuana. So we all can toke it up and be happy!
I'd like to give it a try. I've been on some combination of Hydrocodone/Oxycodone/Oxycontin for over 3 months. I was taking them like they're Pez but I've cut back some now. They don't really kill the pain. It takes the edge off so I don't pass out or vomit, but I wish I had something a little more and without the acetaminophen that may damage my liver with the amount I'm taking.

You missed the point. People abuse these drugs as much, if not more, as marijuana. Big Pharma doesn't care if you abuse their drugs, as they make the money. But if you abuse a drug that is as easy to grow as a dandelion, then they lose out on profits, so they keep those illegal.
OKCShooter has a valid point. Sure, there are many valid reasons the said pain killer should be legal and used. The larger point was that the government doesn't regulate these things to protect you or anyone's health. They do it to line the pockets of the companies that pay them.
And there is also this:
U.S. Leads the World in Illegal Drug Abuse in spite of stricter drug control laws than many countries.
Maybe time to consider our drug policies aren't working? Nah, that's quitter talk and American's ain't quitters. Build us another prison because we lead the world in incarceration rates by an insane margin as well.
Let's just get stricter on these illegal death potions, and approve some stronger opiates for medical use. That'll work.

Just last year the FDA was bitching about the acetaminophen mixed with hydrocodone drugs, and now they're bitching about the lack of it? Painkillers get a bad rap because idiots abuse them. I have family members who would've killed themselves years ago had it not been for painkillers. And I'd bet medicinal marijuana would help them with the pain too.
The "punch a baby before support medicinal marijuana" line is true.

I agree. Unlike many here, I did not grow up sheltered. Pot was very easy to get in high school. I as well as many other people smoked it back then. Pot does not cause near the problems as some of the legal drugs out there. I never seen anyone go off in a violent pot rage, but I have seen many from a bottle of Jim Beam. If the Gov could control it and make all the money on it, it would be packaged and ready to buy tomorrow.
Painkillers get a bad rap because they are pushed on people with no comprehenison of them in the name of profits under the watch of government agencies that don't give the fine grey hairs on a wet rat's ass that this is going on, all the while crowing about how safe they keep us while standing in a country with the highest drug abuse rates in the world.
I'll go on record as saying an overwhelming majority of pain killer prescriptions are written to people who have no business taking them. I'm sure I'll have doctors and people on them and with family on them roll their eyes, but I truly believe that. The OD numbers basically prove this. Real easy to get a customer for life when you're selling drugs that you need to increase the dosage of to get the same effect, and can't quit without withdrawal sickness.
Anybody who thinks Biggsly's statement is untrue, read about who William Randolph Hearst and Andrew Mellon were and get back with us.
My brother went to the Doctor for intermittent shortness of breath. Blood pressure fine, blood work etc check out okay aside from cholesterol. They gave him a prescription for Xanax. Said it could be stress related.
Really? Xanax?
