In Need

In the picture, one can see an older woman in a wheelchair who is opnely supporting the promotion of medical marijuana. The woman is wearing a wreath of pot leaves and seems to be leaving a medical event. It is hard to understand her emotions based soley on her facial expressions, but if I had to guess I would conclude that she is in some sort of pain and/or has a serious illness.

The picture implies that medical marijuana is fair and necessary for those that have chronic pain or illness. It supports my argument for the legalization of weed. In my paper I included an example of someone with Multiple Sclerosis who would only benefit from marijuana. I also stated that the only reason she will not ingest marijuana is because of its legal status. There are many other illnesses that, with the ingestion of marijuana, would result result in less adverse effects for patients.

This picture gives the viewer an idea of how prescription pot could be beneficial to those that need it. The woman's face is blank which, as stated previously, makes it hard to draw accurate emotional conclusions. Regardless of facial expressions, the audience should clearly infer that she has some unstated illness (or pain), and is undoubtedly in need of weed.
