P.T.S.D.  Cannabis helps. Deal with it.

I get irritated when I realize all the difficulties  around Cannabis as a medicine for children,  but I get infuriated when consenting adults are denied Cannabis for P.T.S.D. 
I have read  about soldiers and using Cannabis  to ease their mental anguish as well as physical pain (the above photo is of soldiers that all lost limbs due to the Iraq war. Only 3 of thousands.  We remember those that die but what about all those that come home and have been  - impacted by the war? 
What about what you can not see. The suffering, destruction, anger and death that they witness daily over there and then they are expected to come home and la-de-da...  move on.  For anyone that sits on the sofa watching this only from a television and dares to judge - SHAME on them. Dares to say what they may or may not use to help quiet the mind and heart.
 Many do not want to use the addictive and often harmful prescribed medications or anti depressants  offered to them. WHY shouldn't they be permitted to use cannabis! EVEN if they have pain that YOU don't see. DEAL with it. 
Are you living the life they have returned home to? Will you help them raise their families, work their jobs - pay their bills.  As far as I am concerned they have earned the right to smoke a little Cannabis if only to help them escape for a few hours!  I do not even want to imagine what they have experienced.  I thank God my son - hopefully will never have to go to war.  War - fighting for those who sit home an judge. The poor being sent off to defend the property of the rich - is it more than that ? Tell me.
 It is not about defending ones honor more like defending ones oil.   
Cannabis and HEMP will ease a lot of suffering. 
DEAL with it.
