Hey that sounds great.
One question,
What about responsible adults that happen to be perfectly healthy and choose to use marijuana? I believe that this is "good", but what about just regular Americans that believe that marijuana is harmless, and choose to use it responsilby? Does the ASA plan on advocating for the more mainstream segment of the population, I understand people use it for medication and yes I am a patient, but I think that obviously people like myself and other patients, make up a very small percent of people that use marijuana, and are obviously not anymore entitled to using it than anyone else really. So is ASA doing anything as far as advocating in the intrest of the majority of marijuana users, or are they solely focused on the minority, "medical patients"? When my "magical" piece of paper expires, I sincerely doubt that I will renew it. Does that make me less entitled to use marijuana, because I choose not to "renew" my rec and fork over however much, so that I can say I have a "magical piece of paper", that is irrelevant in the eyes of the federal government? Just wondering? Check the link in my siggie. That's my best friend Ronnie, I love like a brother. He actually helped people that used medical marijuana, some for very serious things, some not so severe. Anyway, he will probably be in prison soon unless there is a miracle, but I was just wondering, because I know first hand and have first hand experience with the federal government enforcing federal law, and I have some questions I guess about what exactly "medical marijuana activists/advocates are doing? So uh, yeah just let me know exactly how ASA is planning on helping the majority of marijuana users I guess.:(

Then they aren't a medical marijuana patient, ASA's purpose is to bring safe access to medical patients, not mass legalization. I think MPP (http://www.mpp.org/) is better suited for you.

Right Nailhead,
ASA thing is safe access for Medical Patients. Mpp or DPA Maybe norml would be good choices in this case maybe. But we still need help for patients too. Patients are the ones I am concentrating on at this time. We need everyones help on this.

Well even if it's only medical. I have anxiety and I believe that in California you are qualified for it, so it would be amazing it if I could get a scrip for it.

Not sure ebY. I would read Ca law real close and see what it says. I know it is not covered under washington conditions. Although I think it should...along with alziehmers and a number of other conditions.
