That's actually not true for forty-four different states in the US where medical marijuana is not offered at all (same with Europe, there are some places that are still wondering if medical marijuana is okay). No hospitals in those places would offer it because it is illegal to have it. The illegal status of marijuana used to be so strict, that even Ph.D psychologists initially had trouble to research the chemical because the government refused to allow scientists to test them. Even today, that is still true, not all psychologists are allowed to do research with the substance. The initial question was whether we are for or against it, so I just wanted to throw in government regulated medical marijuana and see what the opinion is for that.
Edit: I apologize for not noticing a thread on medical marijuana. I just clicked from the front page. <.<
