        It's so sad that the medical community won't open their eyes to the benefit of weed for pain. Utter stupidity.

        This sooooo wrong. What's even worse is if he had taken synthetic lab-created #FrankenWeed, he'd be here today. #LandOfTheUnfree

        To clarify: Because real weed is illegal and they've just approved the fake.

        What a horrible story. They let him die because he smoked a joint? Cruel, judgemental, they deny this young man help when he needed it most.
