iReport —

Your report on MDMA for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder mentioned its' "calming and euphoria" as beneficial to therapy for PTSD. These are well known attributes of Cannabis (marijuana) as well. In fact, there is science out of Israel that supports this.

Even in California, where Cannabis is legal for medicine, veterans are often not able to get medicinal Cannabis, because of the Veterans Administration's opposition and "pain contracts". Suicides are way up - the situation is serious.

MDMA is manmade, Cannabis is nature made. America's best should have a choice. Will Dr. Gupta report on this controversial issue?

On this video, an Air Force veteran describes his ordeal continuing what worked in the past.
