Melissa Lou Etheridge & Pot

People use marijuana for different reasons, The Rock Star needed it to get her through tough times. She used it every day as it gave her an appetite, so she was able to eat and keep her strength up. It also helped her with the depression, and it eased the gastrointestinal pain.

She believe it is time to shine a light on the old "Reefer Madness" fears, and the legalization of pot is making sense, as it will create a real business form and take the lawlessness out of its sale and distribution. She said:

Let's legitimize cannabis sales so that our youth are as protected from illegal pot. Legitimize the growers so that pot can have regulations and I know I am supporting American businesses and not outlaws when I purchase it.
