N.M. Planning Medical Marijuana Program
By BARRY MASSEY, Associated Press Writer

SANTA FE, N.M. - Gov. Bill Richardson ordered the state Health Department on Friday to resume planning of a medical marijuana program despite the agency's worries about possible federal prosecution.

However, the governor stopped short of committing to implement a state-licensed production and distribution system for the drug if the potential for federal prosecution remains unchanged.

I'm very much for medical marijuana. Legalization period, probably not. If people used it responsibly I'd be for it, but you can't count on people as a whole to use it responsibly so it's more danger than it's worth.
