It's not illegal to talk about marijuana.

It's a great idea, I would love to go but they are booked for most of the summer.

It's pretty much for people to learn how to grow marijuana, and/or open their own dispensary. Both are illegal under federal law. If jail scares you then making a living in the medical marijuana industry is not for you.

Interesting concept this school I think it is a great thing. I have been to sooooo many collectives where the Bud tenders did not know what meds were Sat or Ind or Hyb. MMJ School,Great thing in my opinion.

Overhead helicopters that have thermal imaging cameras. I don't think they'll fly in the boonies though, I could be wrong.

of course helicopters 'fly in the boonies' ... if it wasn't the 'boonies', they wouldn't need helicopters, they'd just drive by in their cars ... helicopters are used to monitor 'inaccessible areas' ... :wtf: .. "you can run, but you can't hide" :D

Wasn't he asking about how feds find the dispensaries, not the growers? The dispensaries, (god, I can never spell that word), are usually listed with city hall, many pay taxes and all that fun stuff. The ones that try to hide from their city usually don't last long enough for the federales to even notice them. Who knows how they choose which co-op to raid, they'll go after big profitable ones, as well as the ones that are clearly running for non-profit, (the way they are supposed to).

Seems like a place ya can't go on probation and I'm going to leave it at that.....On a different tip, I would like to know how dispensaries are taxed in states that have thrown the idea of MMJ tax stamps out multiple times. Yep yep yep California government refuses to have MMJ tax stamps so how to they get the bulk of dispensaries money? I know they get tax money on apparel, paraphernalia, food, and beverages(as long as there not funny) oh and on private membership fees from a dispensaries if they so have any so wheres the beef? That doesn't seem like much of a kick back to the local magistrates to allow such a service to go unchecked thats all I'm saying......Free Tibet!!!!!:hippy:
