Some medical treatments using marijuana can help calm seizures so it does have some benefits.

I was sitting at a table on the far right side of the building doing my history homework, when I heard a very loud male saying “I do not understand why people think it is a huge deal to smoke on campus. Nothing is going to happen to the nonsmoker if all they do is pass by!” It took so much for me to stay quiet and mind my own business when he made this comment, because smoking around…
