Growing Experience and Marijuana the miracle Plant!

I want to throw just a thought out there and see what you fellow gardeners think? Before I started growing medical marijuana I couldn't ever grow a damn tomato plant. But the process of growing this awesome herb has made me into a master green thumb I have learned so much about various plants not just weed, and I would just like to thank RIU for providing us with a community that lets each of us help each other out. Now I can honestly grow anything I want, and grow it good! Marijuana really is a miracle plant it teaches, it makes paper, it makes textiles, it has various medical properties, Hell If it wasn't for Marijuana I'd still be going to the grocery store for my produce! the list goes on feel free to add.
It's a shame that such a useful plant is illegal. Why not make Poison Ivy Illegal for an example, honestly what good comes out of it? I may just be stoned but I would like to hear others opinions and about how other people feel, and from becoming a black thumb to a green thumb in the matter of months.

There is a new study out that shows that MJ reduces throat and lung cancer.

your preaching to the choir bro, good old marijuana never did any harm to anybody. why is it illegal when all of these pills, that are so much worse, are prescribed every day ?

Lol man, agreed..but..discussions is better for the politics/gov section
