Many of the drugs that the FDA has not cleared for doctors to subscribe are still available for trial basis under extreme conditions such as someone having a terminal illness. What this law is try to control are situations like those people who say they are sick so it%u2019s OK for them to grow hundreds of pounds of marijuana and make hundreds of thousands of dollars while more than half the pot they sell ends up in this nations school systems destroying the health, memories, educations and futures of literally tens of millions of our children.

This is fracking nuts! You might die from the drug, so it's better to absolutely die from your disease???? No way! A chance at life beats certain death, and it's my choice - if nothing else, your death should be something you can choose. What a bunch of interfering idiots!

F*cking clueless court. Let's see, you *might* be dead from an unapproved drug but it might save your life. Don't get the drug and you will 100% die. I know what choice I'd make. I didn't realize that Constitutional interpretation included ignoring the obvious.
