As medical cannabis patient, I certainly avoid any routes that could potentially land (e.g. because of technical issue) in a country that is anti-disabled people.
edit: why is this being downvoted? Certain countries have harsh drug laws and couldn't care less whether the use is legitimate or not. Even if you don't have any medication on you, but you have metabolites you can get yourself in prison. This should be called out, but it seems like people have succumbed to prohibitionist propaganda.
- AdrianB1 5y agoI don't know why you were downvoted, but your argument is disingenuous: the anti-drug laws are not anti-disabled people, this is probably a borderline case that was not considered in the legislation. Fake self-victimization may be why you were downvoted?
- varispeed 5y agoI am disabled and can't live without this medication as otherwise it makes pain unbearable. Some states don't recognise medical use and can imprison people who have metabolites in the system and are legitimate medical users. Just because the catchment area of such law is slightly broader than targeting just the disabled, it does not mean these states are not anti-disabled if they prevent disabled people from use of medication. I find your comment absolutely insensitive and disgusting. Please educate yourself.
- AdrianB1 5y agoI find your attitude as entitled and dishonest; that law did not target disabled people, so you cannot say it is anti-disabled people, it is just a side-effect. It's that simple.
