Medical marijuana conference scheduled for Unitarian church

Sensible Missouri -- a group dedicated to bringing legal medical weed to the chronically and terminally ill in Missouri -- has scheduled a patient conference at All Souls Unitarian Church for May 29.

The conference is to educate people on the effectiveness of cannabis as a medical treatment, and learn how you can help lobby in Jefferson City to legalize medical marijuana.

"I've done lobbying for a while now, and even though the majority of

people support medical marijuana, our politicians have been

stonewalling us," says Mark Pederson, the group's

founder and president, and himself a medical marijuana patient.

"Consequently, we're trying to educate as many people as we can."

Kansas City's own Kate Meiners, a Democratic state

representative, has tried

twice this year to get a vote on medical marijuana without

success. The

last time the House voted on legalizing weed as treatment, the

proposal was soundly defeated. Of course, in that vote, supporters were

trying to sneak in medical marijuana by making its legalization an

amendment on a bill banning fake weed, K2.

Sensible Missouri's May 29 conference is scheduled for 2 p.m. at All Souls, 4501 Walnut Street.

Ugh, why are they moving like snails?? They ban things at lightning speed so it's not just part of the judicial process.

Whoa there! Watch reefer madness much?! Marijuana makes sex more intense, not pathetic. Marijuana is much safer than ANY legal alternative (medicinal or recreational). Learn the facts before you cast judgement. You are brainwashed you puppet!

She was high as a kite, and completely naked. But she was pathetic in bed. Nope. You stoners need to find a different means of becoming "wards of the state." I don't feel like subsidizing/enabling your destruction. Ok? Lock'em up!
