That doesn't address Tiger's point. When it was used as a medication, how was it administered? Was it smoked? Eaten?

Mr. Falen -
Your explanation lacks logic.
Here is my explanation for the "criminalization" of marijuana possession and/or use.
Way back, before the 1930's (and "Reefer Madness"), cannabis was a key ingredient in pain relief medicine.  
As the pharmaceutical industry grew in the 1920s (and well into the 1930s), pharmaceutical businesses were looking to gain control over the "pain killers" market.  But, to do that they would have to create a reason for people to quit buying those pain killers.  Hence . . . "Reefer Madness".
I believe in legalization, regulation, and taxation of marijuana . . . just like we do alcohol.

That is because there has not been adequate research on marijuana smoke. People smoked cigarettes for a couple hundred years before it was shown to be harmful. It is only logical to assume a high inhalation of smoke from any source is harmful. Therefore keep your usage low.
