Message | Madam Speaker, Banning medicinal use of cannabis is unbearably cruel from the usual non-cruel Gukmindang. At times this is the only (cheap or otherwise available)alternative for those who are in extreme pain when nothing else can reduce the pain. Prof. Hugh Vachez LOL Health Critic |
Date | 19:03:05, March 14, 2013 CET | From | Gukmindang | To | Debating the Recreational Drugs Act |
Message | Mr. Speaker, there is no consensus amongst the medical community for the argument that cannabis should be used for medicinal purposes. There are safer and more effective ways for people to be treated than through using cannabis. Haneul Han MP General Secretary of the Gukmindang |

Message | Mr. Speaker, The Werin Da holds no opinion on the issue of using cannabis for medical purposes and is open for discussion on the issue. We however strongly support all recreational drug use with obvious exceptions like tobacco, alcohol and coffee. Thyria Illegar, MP |

Message | Mr Speaker I am surprised that The Evil Cult wants to ban drugs, how they can get their members to get high, and bare them to listen the cult's leaders or get new members. Nikki Zasz Dong MP Co-Leader of ''Sanity and Honour in the Parliament'' |
