Title: CBS News Source: Marijuana To Remain Classified As Dangerous Drug In U.S.

The federal government is expected to make an announcement Thursday that it has rejected petitions to loosen the classification of marijuana as a dangerous drug with no medical use, CBS News reported.

But a U.S. government source told CBS News that the government would allow more research into marijuana, senior investigative producer Pat Milton reported.

A nurse practitioner and two former state governors filed petitions asking federal agencies to have marijuana reclassified as a drug with acceptable medical uses, CBS New reported.

Marijuana has long been classified as a “Schedule 1” drug with “no currently accepted medical use and high potential for abuse,” which is the same classification for such drugs as heroin. (1 image)

"The federal government is expected to make an announcement Thursday that it has rejected petitions to loosen the classification of marijuana as a dangerous drug ..."

Nowhere in the announcement document (below) does the federal government say marijuana is a "dangerous" drug. CBS lied. CBS made it up out of thin air.

no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States.

So that would mean that it does have accepted medical use in other countries.

"no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States."
"So that would mean that it does have accepted medical use in other countries."

Non sequitur. Using that logic, if my dog is not brown it must be blue.
