DEA CANNABIS RESCHEDULING

PUBLIC COMMENT VIEWER

Here is a random public comment on the rescheduling of cannabis to Schedule III from an anonymous commenter.

Marijuana being scheduled as a schedule I drug is an antiquated notion that makes no sense today. It does not have the harm or ability to be abused that the other drugs in that schedule have. Alcohol is something that is far more addicting and abusable and leads to more health issues than marijuana and yet is widely available federally. The double-standards and non-sensical classifications in the scheduling system are rife. Marijuana should ideally be descheduled altogether and legalized federally, but rescheduling it to a far more appropriate category is a good first step.
