I was looking at this link DEA, Drug Scheduling

I thought marijuana was at least schedule 2, this means the Fed's see no medicinal value in marijuana. How the hell did this occur? Even with all the scientific research the US just bats a blind eye?

I knew there was a lot of naivety in our drug war philosophy, but this just makes it blatantly obvious that we are far behind in doing any social progress.

Tradition of excellence?
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Oh my god, that is hilarious and angering at the same time. The arrogance, the ignorance, the being so DAMN naive. I really wish I could punch whoever is responsible for writing that.

Wait, what am I saying?
I want to hit alllllll those pompous assholes.

cocaine and crack are schedule 2?

Buzzby

It's been that way since scheduling was set up under the Controlled Substances Act in 1971.

If you don't look at it, it's not there.

Cocaine is a drug which is used medically as a local anesthetic for eye and nose surgery. Crack is cocaine. Methamphetamine is also a Schedule II drug - it's used for narcolepsy.

Heroin and all opiates are also Schedule II!

Not only is marijuana Schedule I, but the definition does not include an exception for industrialized hemp. This makes it very difficult for farmers to get a permit to grow industrialized hemp, as it is not cost effective given the strenuous regulation under Schedule I.

The Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs does have an exception for industrialized hemp. The Controlled Substances Act is the US law which implements the US SCND treaty obligations, but the US did not include the same industrial hemp exceptions. There are also exceptions in the treaty for medicinal use, and some countries interpret the treaty as having an exception for personal use as well.

actually heroin is schedule 1 and so is Fentanyl, most opiate pain medicine are 2 or 3.

Actually Fentanyl is Schedule II. I was wrong about heroin, but having seen so many other opiates in Schedule II I might have overlooked that. Opium extracts 9610 Opium fluid extract 9620 Opium poppy 9650 Papaver somniferum Opium tincture 9630 Laudanum Opium, granulated 9640 Granulated opium Opium, powdered 9639 Powdered Opium Opium, raw
All Schedule II. Here is the complete list DEA, Drug Scheduling
