1.1 The Medical Use of Marijuana

In this video, you will see the case of a woman who uses legalized marijuana to treat chronic pain after an accident has left her partially paralyzed. As you will see, there is much debate concerning the use of marijuana for medical purposes. Some argue that marijuana is an addictive and dangerous substance and that if it is legalized for certain purposes, it will be easier to abuse, especially among young persons. As you watch, consider how you feel about the social and legal implications of regulation of the substance.
