Although the medical use of marijuana is associated with wanting to get approval for legalization and using this for recreational needs, some people have found that using marijuana for patients (i.e. people suffering from glaucoma use cannabis to ease the pressure on their eyes) can really bring out the curative powers of this plant. However, shameless bigots have been known to induce fear on the public, speaking of Cannabis as a “gateway drug” to other harder drugs.

I think the medical use of marijuana is completely ethical and valuable as well.
