It seems that while weed’s opposing forces often cite increasing addiction rates for the substance as a reason to maintain prohibition, the primary reason rehab facilities are full of “pot junkies” is b

In my latest article for Cannabis Now, I cover the subject of gun ownership in the face of medical marijuana laws. A story suggesting that Illinois patients recently received letters indicating their gun privledges had been revoked due to their participation in the medical marijuana program prompted me to look into this matter a bit further...

As states like Michigan move to legalize a full-scale recreational marijuana market, there is some pressure from the top for the creation of an accurate roadside test to determine if a motorist is driving stoned or simply showing traces of THC from previous consumption...

Michigan marijuana enthusiasts may want to watch Ohio today, as the voters there are deciding on whether to legalize a recreational cannabis trade.
