Long Description

This video focuses on the medical use of marijuana. A California woman named Angel reports that marijuana enabled her to abandon her wheelchair and resume her duties as a mother. However, in a case that went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, the federal government put the organization where Angel purchased her first supply of marijuana out of business. Angel's family has gone to federal court in an effort to obtain an order that will protect Angel and the unnamed growers who supply her with marijuana. In an emotional on-camera appeal, she argues that the federal government's actions could send her back to a wheelchair. Federal drug czar John Walters claims that marijuana is a highly addictive substance that causes great harm, particularly to young people. The narrator laments that court cases and politics rather than scientific research are deciding whether marijuana can be used for medical purposes.
