Why did Governor Richardsen even pass the medical marijuana law here?

[NuggWoman]

I dont even understand why Governor Bill Richardson made them pass the law for medical maryjane here in the first place. WHERE are all the smokers???
In Oregon they actually have a THC clinic where you can get your card in a snap. People there care about other people not having their medicine. I have been looking for people in the wrong places I guess, because all I see are DRINKERS !! I dont think people in NM KNOW what green bud is at all. Brown seedy crappy crap. Where did I move to??????? I miss OREGON BUDS so badly. This place sucks.:mad:

sounds like an excellent reason to grow your own :jointsmile: ... btw, you may have set a record, how do ya get two red (bad) rep points with only 3 posts ??? ... (and I thought I was the biggest pain on the Forum :D) ... well, I do try ;)

[flyingimam]

sounds like an excellent reason to grow your own :jointsmile:

yup i was about to say the same thing.... that is just THE way to go... no matter where u r... u r lucky there is some law where u live. in TX there are no such laws... not even on the horizon for future debate/vote.

Yet i know for the fact there are a LOT of smokers in TX and just a simple diggin up around the forum will reveal that some are just long time growers..

self efficiency = cheaper, safer (no risk of riding dirty, dealing with drug dealers, less chance of getting caught if u know what u r doing, etc) and the most important part "CUSTOMIZABLE" :D u can grow exactly what u want, do some research and find out which strains will work better for your medical condition... get the seeds and learn the techniques... and voila! u will be set for good!

its a sort of therapy in itself, this practice of growing and caring for your plants.:thumbsup:

win-win-win-win-win lol only the state and the criminals lose.

If you move here just to move here; your in for a very big supprise. If you moved here for medical purposes, then you are close to death, if not it was a bad choice to move here for medical perposes. All I can say is your not in Kansas any more Dorthy and OZ was the first stop welocome to the "Land Of Entrapment" come on vacation, leave on probation, "come for life and find death". This land is wild and the people can be the same but all is dangerous here so rethink your tactic, and watch out for the priests, they grow em carnivorus here.

Mabey a quote from a friend will help.

Upon coming back from Iraq after 4 years abroad, his first words off the c 130. "AHH, Welcome To The Suck"

When your from here you know exacticaly what he means, everyone eles just assumes they know or get the idea. But they will never know, and a word of advise, dont start to drink or you will never stop, not here anyway.

[MadSativa]

Of coars for some of us, we can never leave, and usualy they rejocie at the sound of that, others are always in fear, and some are so crazey if they ever got out. Their would be no stopping them. While your hear, I recomend the UNM area for scoring medicine..........just tying to help?

[Obscurus]

At the moment, I am beginning to see the fruits of harvest in New Mexico. I can actually say I am coming across some good buds. There is some Kush going around right now..... and I recommend what Mad Sativa suggested, UNM area is a good place to search for the Kind.

[MadSativa]

Around UNM I scored some of this Johny bud they are talkin about in the medical section. Its outdoor, Bluberry x AK47. I like it, its heavy indica stone but still sativa effects such as low heart, rate or no rapid heart rate, but still strong indica stone. The sack I got is not sensimilla though, and was not properly flushed out. Otherwise though it is a good smoke the taste is good and the high is good, if you guys see it out their, its worth the 50 an eith, hell I even got an quad for 90 I thought it was a good deal. not so seedy that it is bad, but still the same it has some seed.

[NuggWoman]

I am just ranting here I guess. I dont mean to piss anyone off and as for the medicine here goes.....well, I am EATING CROW right at this very moment, thank you very much !! Kush Kush yum yum yummmmmmm. It tastes so delicious!!! YAY NM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is like anywhere, it's who you know type of thing. UNM wasnt successful for me. I think people were cautious, but cool. Too crowded to ask around. I am bummed here because my hubbs cant find a job and times ticking and Im panicked. Jobs here are based on your credit, I heard and if thats true then uh oh for us, because I have alot of medical probs, and medical bills up the ying yang, as does my hubby, surgeries, lot of surgeries. I love the land here and the wild beauty that oregon lacks. I miss the trees, but my brother lives in santa, and said nm has the largest parks and forests in the nation. Wow! Ive already seen some weird shit in the skies here, makes me doubt my own sanity. I hope Im not too like anyone's ex-wife. I really am cool, sorry to bitch, but I dont drink and when Im out of medicine, I can get bitchy. lol Not now tho, peace love and medicine forever. :stoned::stoned::stoned::stoned::stoned::stoned: Hey Madsa.. youre cool, and the shit you post is cool. I wish I couldve tasted a Dixon apple!!! Taos was beautiful! Reminded me of santa fe.

[NuggWoman]

We moved here to relocate and raise our daughter in a place where the kids dont call her racist names and where the white racist assholes are everywhere. People (even old) would stare at us in oregon like we were aliens. My daughter is happy here and we blend in finally. We can go to a store and not be fukd with. Oregon is a bad place. My hubs is from here, although not for the last 13 years hes been married to me , living in oregon. The jobs is what is hard here. Weve been here since july and although had interviews, no luck.

[STONEGROOVE]

Aquick word here.Yea.. growyour ownd is great advice if you have a coupla pounds laying around to tide you over till the crop is in.Kinda useless if NOT.i DONT see any useful advice here.go to unm??? what is the USE OF med maryjane LAWS if you still have to go to the street?????PEOPle this defeats the whole purpose of these laws.Ok does ANYBODY KNOWOF A doctor THA t WILL GIVE A script?????Can anyone DONATE BUD TO fellow bud smokers???that is the spirit of medical mj.In oregon people will GIVE ,thats right folks GIVE you cronic SEEDLESS skunk(aka matanooska thunderfuck,white widow,shangrala.etc)if your a card holder in need.Im talking about quarters here.K.Not just a "bud".I dont see this ANYWHERE in NM.Sad sadsad.Im from here and I cant stand the drunks.Val Kilmer said it best."about 80% of the people in my town are drunk."He thinkingof runnigfer gov.

[STONEGROOVE]

Id say he passed it cuz he cool.wayy cool.god billy boy would have made a fucking hell of a presididnt.He got the north koreans tocome to santa!Fuckup bush could'nt do that with or with out his daddy help.Yea the law would never have passed without billy boy making those calls to various senators.Cuz NM is TOO catholic socially CONSERVATIVE.These old catholic folks in the roundhouse think its oK to drink like a goddamm fish but pot .........Ohhh you might freak out and see god.too bad the pope doesnt smoke.

[MadSativa]

Nuggs, I see you are already in the problems most of us have around here. No jobs, no health care, and at times it seems evil is in control of our state and city government. Im glad to hear you dont get any trouble from raceism hear, although I still see it alot (makes me ashamed at times). I know girls who have kids just to get more money form the govenment, I know people who will go to school for a week just ot get the grant money, and then leave to go back to work. This place needs some help, with things like that, no education, and no hope is the life of many, I would say almost 40% of the population. All we hear here is layoffs, busssiness moving, bussiness was gonna move here but no more. I have not been to the doctor in over 2 years, I have no medical, and the last time I was their was for a med. card for pain. I brang my doctor my info, and he didnt even read it, He just said "Why do you want Marijuana" then he said how their are much better pain suppresants such as oxxycotten. I think his exact words after saying Oxxycotten were "people seem to love that", after he yelled at me, I never went back. Not because I havent had too but because I cant afford it, and mostly Because I dont know what doctor to trust anymore, I am thinking of going to the free clinic just because they seem to care about people more. They dont care about your name or healthcare insurance, they just need your IRS papers. lol This place has alwyas been hell to some. The Land Of Entrapment some love it and some realy hate it.

[NuggWoman]

Yeah Mads., That scares me too about the health care here, hubs got his old job he had 13 years ago, can you f**ing believe that!! Now I need to get one and we'll be ok at least for now. My grower back home is cool with the news of me relocating. He knows how sick I am and back in oregon, people really care if your out of medicine. I did a post once there and had 2 people give me quarters -QUARTERS of good high grade matanooska and
white widow. There are a hell alot of card holders there and they take care of their own and have huge barbecues and band/smoke fests. I went once and it was great, never tasted so many things made from gee. cookies, cakes candies all from scratch and all medicinally delicious. We networked there and thats what people need to do here. hell they wanted me to go on t.v and be a medical marijuana advocate for the state. I want to get a legal card here but need to call the local norml chapter I guess. Since no one will say squat about where the dr.'s are. NM needs a thc clinic where you show up, make an appt. bring your records, pay your fee and you have your card. It's that easy. Portland has one. Ive had my card for 3 years now.
Things are starting to move for us here finally. Need medicine more now than ever :thumbsup: Peace out everyone
Rain:hippy:

Here's a video from Nathan Edelman who is the founder and director of the drug policy alliance, speaking at the norml conference in CA in 2007. It sums up the answer to your original question, Nuggwoman.

on behalf of a small collective of cultivators in calif- id like to ask of all the NM natives posting here....

thanks

I would have to say Las Cruces, Near the Mexican Border.

There is so much green flowing in and out of there it's amazing. Chronic is so easy to come by and the Cops seem to have other things on there mind when it comes to criminals.

I think it has come to be this way because it is so easy to access, being Near El Paso, TX and the Mexican border. Copious amounts are ran through those areas, and have been for a long time without TOO many problems. That's not saying if you are caught that they will not punish you to the full extent.

I'm not sure why you would want to know such a thing, but if its on behalf of medical cultivation (On the NM MMJ terms at least), there is not one place in the state where it is being done.

[Doobee]

~sigh~


Helloooo in New Mexico to all the medical jane people,

I'm new to this site/forum so please forgive my outdated terms and such ok?

Back in the 70s we had Mex, Columbo, Cali Sensi or weak home grown.

I was in Cali for several years and in New Zealand so Sensimilla was rare but found and in NZ was a joy for Buda and Tia weed.

Nowadays pot is dank?

Skunk was nasty and now good smoke.

The hybreds and types and strains and all is mind boggling and yet exciting....IF I could walk into a place like you luckiers than I am and try many out to get my needs met.
Bud is always bud unless around the boozers then an explainition was needed.

Times have changed and the weed has gotten 1000s Xs better and more expensive but well within the quality/value range.

The big diff I have noticed is back when, pot was easy to score and a bust was bad to nasty.
Now it looks more and more like the buds are an extreme hassle to find and get and yet the bust is a petty deal by and large.

The old farts and hippies of the past were relaxed with the pot and we didn't fret our butts off about smoking and scoring.

Now it is paraniod beyond any reality.

A couple a months ago I scored some outragious bud that was the best ever in my life time and I've had some exotic weed in my time.
Took weeks for the nice non-smoker to score for me and I thought I was into a good source for atleast a few more rounds and all.

Well, his buddy got a job and didn't return the calls so I am still without for the last two months.
My neighbors are late 20s and good people and all but they smoke far less than anyone I have ever known and when and if they score...it's just enuff for themselves.
I had a few past buys from them for the dirt weed but was better than nothing and I always made sure they got more than enuff $$$ for their time and all and my way of thanking them for including me a 56 year old helpful kinda neighbor.
Looking back I paid them to where their stash was paid for and then some.

Long tale short, they are so paranoid...they tightly close their drapes and put a towel at their front door when smoking and there's only one neighbor by them and they are cool old farts as well.

Me?

Having some bud and not even an ounce at that is no alarm for a door knock with any cop standing there sniffing my place out.
Not stupid but not worried as much and this generation seems to enjoy being.

Something changed ''recently'' I don't know about???

Was a $25.00 petty misdomenor for lrss than an ounce.

And last I knew up to 8 before a felony was attached to the bust.

Well, here I am and was sooooooo hopeful.

Now I am back to discouraged.

Thought it was just me being a 56 year old guy with a ponytail asking here and there when I'd see a cool enuff person to ask if they knew of any bud to buy.
More often than not I get..."you a narc?"

Yeah rrrrright......narc to bust some one for an ounce or far less and all for a $25.00 fine????

I'm just now going for a mmj card but the VA can't help and I called UNMH and they laff saying they are Federal funded in paer so will not abide by the new mmj lwas no matter what Bill our Gov says.

~sigh~

Gotta go now for my eye doctor post surgery appointment so be back later.

Forgive me if I am being stupid.

Enjoy what ya got in the meantime.

[Ziggy Stardust]

I would have to say Las Cruces, Near the Mexican Border.


I'm not sure why you would want to know such a thing, but if its on behalf of medical cultivation (On the NM MMJ terms at least), there is not one place in the state where it is being done.


well as in most states there are counties that are more favorable and open to MMJ. in response to fourms requests what we would like to do is send emmisaries to Los Cruces to interface w local authorities to determin what we could do inorder to develop safe and legal acess to medicinal cannabis in NM

in keeping with that last thought if you could please provide legal cites (legislation) where the text of the NM law could be found that would go a long way in our efforts

[Psilocybe Sativa]

Google is a wonderful resource. As far as I know (and i have been known to be wrong at times) there are no city ordinances if that's what you mean. It was a majority vote for the state. I don't know if anything differs from city to city. I suppose you could look up the arrest statistics if all else fails. OR you could contact the Medical Cannabis Program Coordinator at (505) 827-2321 or [email protected] for more information.

Medical Marijuana Information (http://www.health.state.nm.us/marijuana.html)

Hope that helps.

wiseguy chief....I m not dising I m telling as in THE TRUTH.feR mj Nm blows.Fuck abunchdrunks.Every other week, some dumb fuck goes dwi killssomebody,and nobody raises an eyebrow.THIS SHIT IS SHAMEFUL.SHAMFUL..AMD FUCKING LAME.And why oh why is it that NOBODY or anybody gets whatTRUE chronic is?I asked my candyman "bra get me some dank some stinky stuff"He said got it,and itwas BROWN SEEDY AVERAGEDOPE.Thats all i hear "its chronic dude" NO IT AINT.aND NOBODY GETS this.Itslike thereis no really good dope around.at least in burqu.Oh yeah I AM FROM NM SO I know my shit from bck innaday .In the past people knew what limegreen meant.Back then hash shrooms cid opium whippet parties brownies cookies were easy toget.Fuck ya can'teven get oc's or xanax or vicoden.Its just not around.I m not living in teh pastfuckthe past.Just seemskinda stupid.Brown herband tequlia.wecome to NM.

I was browsing through and i came across this page of people saying that NM has no kill. I live in alb. i know heads throughout the state. the Majority of what i come across is "that good". none of that dirt or step-down/pretendo nonsense. you dont need a card for MMJ.

i imagine the scenario on Pineapple Express where Sal says "hes not getting the pineapple express hes getting the snikklefritz" because ive seen it happen.

im not saying im super popular and my hooks are exclusives. im sure some of us know the same heads. but what im getting at is its who you know. i hear people say this is this name or this is that. but i dont care much for names. people try to build up products with fancy names and no quality. i dont bother with names unless i know for sure.

As for other substances, they arent hard to find. once again it comes back to who you know. if i cant get my friends can or vice versa.

Back to Richardson. im glad nm has passed for medical grade. it will only get better. MMj will be more accessible.

[gypski]

"come on vacation, leave on probation",

I read that and it took my breath away I started to laugh so hard. :S2:

[MadSativa]

"its chronic dude" NO IT AINT.aND NOBODY GETS this.Itslike thereis no really good dope around.at least in burqu.Oh yeah I AM FROM NM SO I know my shit from bck innaday .

haha sucks to be you, haha thats funny though,.............. I havent smoked the brown mexi brick in close to 5 years, it is to the point now, I dont even know where to get the brown mexi brick even if I wanted. You need better friends, and stuff, even like 2-3 years ago their was the hash man up, he got busted, but all the same I would have to realy look for the shit weed, when the good stuff is everywhere

[MadSativa]

I read that and it took my breath away I started to laugh so hard. :S2:

it is a old joke, it never changes though, it is very true. Their are many stories of people having to move here because they came on vacation, got into trouble, and now have court every day or are in jail. Cops here are something else sometimes, and sometimes a situation, just comes out of nowhere here. gotta watch out for the craziest things sometimes, damns space aliens come out of no where, to try to steal lowriders
