Not studied long enough, irrational prohibitionist ignoramuses claim in desperate hopes of further stalling, obstructing, and delaying the inventible full legalization of cannabis. Do these prohibitionist politicians even care to understand and realize that not only do we already have over a decade worth of experience with stateside legalization, but also that Cannabis perhaps the most studied therapeutic substance on Earth? It’s true:

“Despite the US government’s nearly century-long prohibition of the plant, cannabis is nonetheless one of the most investigated therapeutically active substances in history. To date, there are over 20,000 published studies or reviews in the scientific literature referencing the cannabis plant and its cannabinoids, nearly half of which were published within the last five years according to a keyword search on PubMed Central, the US government repository for peer-reviewed scientific research. Over 1,450 peer-reviewed papers were published in 2013 alone. (By contrast, a keyword search of “hydrocodone,” a commonly prescribed painkiller, yields just over 600 total references in the entire body of available scientific literature.)”
