Medicinal Marijuana usage?

I would. It is illegal here and other countries, ya know? Tread lightly johnny, I am a prime candidate for medmary, and you are offensive with your tone about "some heartbreaking story"

Surely i can understand why you would go through all that trouble, but you wouldn't do that either if you lived right here.

And if you're THAT easily offended, well sorry, but that's not my problem.

Well, actually you started with saying "We have medicinal marihuana here, but it's totally unnecessary imho."
This tells me you are impying areas that are not legal, that its not necessary. And you state that you know of no one with this problem, and then describe an example of someone going to the "trouble of...".
I know you meant no offense to me, but that is the attitude of most of the government and medical field here, is its just some heartbreaking story. I have an example for you, take a low voltage cattle prod, stick it in your head, right in the middle, then tell me what kind of trouble you would go through to stop it. Oh wait, you cant stop it, you can just cope with your "heartbreaking" story, and the break the law.
Yes I am THAT sensitive to it, and it IS my problem. So, what.

You didn't understand me well then, i meant it's not necessary HERE in the Netherlands, because of all the opportunities to get it much easier.

I was just talking about this with Lady Aberdene, and she pointed out the same thing you just said. I am sorry for taking that out of context.
I think what iced it for me was the "some heartbreaking story" comment. I am sure you dont mean to offend my story or anyone elses story for that matter. I am sorry, just grumpy I guess... Bygons?

Sure, no probs. The "heartbreaking story" was in a manner of "why the hell would i go to the docter, tell him how much i'm hurting, while all i have to do is walk down the street, and get some without an explanation to anyone", a bit cynical as you may notice, but only because i think "medweed" is totally unnecessary here, because noone bothers going to a doc, and i'm assuming neither would you if you lived down here. Let me tell you this.... some shops are in the yellow pages, you give them a call, and they come by your house, kinda like a pizzadelivery. Would you still go see a doc with so many other options ?

Why ?

Um, sorry, I was distracted by the gibbs when I replied. I meant I would love having a delivery guy like that, and be legal.
