CO mmj card

[twitch]

how hard is it to get your mmj card in CO is it the same as cali?

[PufferLungs]

I have no idea what the rules are in California.

How hard is it? Not hard at all if you have a LEGITIMATE medical reason to use cannabis. Most doctors offices will require documented history.

Documented medical history means you have a chronic condition that you've repeatedly sought medical help for. I was told my documented records could not be more than 1yr old. That means if I had a broken leg 3yrs ago and had pain - that don't count. If you currently happen to have brain cancer - but you don't have any current records showing continued doctors care and treatment - you got nuthin.

Bring copies of your records to the doctors office - because if you bring the originals - some of them will CHARGE you to make the copies in their office. I was told it would be $20 to copy my records. I had been warned about this and brought my own copies. Not getting $20 from me to make a couple dozen copies of paper.

Pay the doctors fee. Take the original copy of your prescription and fill out your state application - make copies of everything - get it all notarized and provide the necessary identification (copy of your drivers license) - include a check for the $90 registration fee and send it in via registered mail - save that receipt ........ and wait......... and wait......... and wait.......

it's really easy right now...no records needed although this is bound to change because it's in just about every proposed legislation...make sure you use a fully licensed M.D. or you may have to go back and get re-certified

some columnist in denver wrote she got her card between filling the wiper fluid and picking up the dry-cleaning without so much as disclosing her weight...

I don't think thats correct. Every place I called asked me to bring in CURRENT medical records - no more than 1yr old - as proof. But I got my card a few months back.

your wrong......all you have to do is look in westword or craigslist, & call and ask if they do "no records".......just so happens the first 2 places I called do no records no problem....took about 1.5hrs in and out...1.25hrs was waiting.

Yea, no; you definitely do not have to provide any medical history. I was taken a back by how easy it was. In no way am I complaining, but it was alarmingly simple to get done. That was the third week in November.

pfffft - decent housing prices in Colorado are a myth.

Unless you want to live in Aurora (we call it Saudi Aurora) - which just happens to be the biggest ANTI-pot city in the whole state. :mad:

Broomfield is expensive and is anti-pot.

Golden is pot friendly - but expensive.

Arvada has some reasonably priced housing, but I wouldn't want to live in those areas (high crime - a friend is an Arvada cop - no he doesn't know that I burn). They are also anti-pot.

Denver is one of the most pot friendly cities and there are very nice areas of Denver proper. It's anything but cheap though.

A friend just rented a house in the suburb of Thornton for $500 a month...

WHAT?! how is that possible......its almost impossible to find a 1bedroom apartment for $500...... how can someone even cover their mortgage renting for 500?

your bound to be in high crime area for that price....decent 3 bedroom house in decent neighborhood will be atleast 175-200k

[PufferLungs]

Agreed.

Only place you're going to find a house in Colorado (Denver area) for $80 - $100k is in the high crime area of Aurora or Denver.

$175 - 200k is the low end of decent middle class homes here. Spot on with the number too.

Which explains why I live in an apartment. I make a decent living but we're an old fashioned family of 4 and she's a house wife. I can't afford a house on a decent salary in this state. I've been begging her to move for years but her whole family lives here and she won't do it. We could live in the midwest on a 20 acre ranch with a 3500sq.ft house for $200k. Not that I'd buy that. I'm more into a 1500sq.ft. 3bd-2bath on 2 acres with a 60x60 shop/barn. About $100k - 130k in the midwest - and the same salary as I make now.

Colorado isn't a cheap place to live.

I don't buy your cop buddies assesment. I've lived in Arvada nearly my entire life. The two absolute worst crimes I've ever seen in this city, that made the news were:,..

1. Guy from Aurora waiting for a bus in Arvada, Calls a Cab, turns out to be a major criminal, Robs and kills the Cab driver then runs, and gets busted in Arvada.

2. Second "worst" crime in Arvada is Bank robberies, and those were done mainly by people who didn't even live in Arvada. They just drove to the other end of town to rob a bank.

Here is a link to city-data's city listings Colorado Bigger Cities (over 6000 residents) - Real Estate, Housing, Schools, Residents, Crime, Pollution, Demographics and More (http://www.city-data.com/city/Colorado.html). About 1/3rd the way down is a crime chart. The code for the overall crime rate is a scale which higher numbers equal higher crime. National average is 320.

Arvada posts at 185. (barely over half the national crime average).
Aurora posts an impressive 338(higher then national average)
Golden is 182.4
Thornton is pulling 266.8 (pretty high)
Denver posts 350.9 (Highest I looked at.)

Point is EVERY cop works in the "worst" crime city according to them. Boulder (217.8) was a "hippy" city, until the "CU Riot" a few years back. Then topped off with the whole Jon Bonnet scandle. NOW they have a swat team, a riot truck, and every cops acts like they are living in EAST LA circa 1988. All because of one unsolved murder and a guy burning a couch in the street!

Yes the Boulder "riots" were not riots at all. First one was a CU student lit a couch on fire in the street, people gathered to look at the burning couch. Cops started pushing the looky loos around. The drunk, student looky loos got upset and pushed back after the cops got to rough on a few of those drunk idiots. The following year the cops showed up in force 6 hours in advance to "kick off" another riot.

Arvada got a huge boost in police around 10 years ago from the FEDS. During the roughly 85th Arvada Harvest festival some drunk homeless guy got in a fight at the beer garden. Cops chased him when he ran. Guy hides under a car in the parking lot. So,.. Cops bring in the big guns. State troopers, helicopter, police bikes AND dogs. They search the parking lot for over 40 min. Drunk guy has to pee, so he climbes out from under the car and turns himself in. So, to justify the cost of hunting for him, they reported it as a "RIOT"!

Arvada nearly doubled it's forces over the next two years in response to that "riot".

Personally I don't consider a drunk guy hiding under a car a "riot" any more then I think a hundred students watching a couch burn is a "riot". These are both examples of cities using false information for fiscal boosts from the FED and state.

So, my point is don't take hear say as fact from cops. They ALL think they have it the worst! I'd walk through any Colorado city alone at 2am without much fear, if any as well. Even Aurora!

Check the facts with the actual statistics too.:thumbsup:

Colorado isn't a cheap place to live.

So you make ~$1600 - $1700 a week (after-tax, after 401k deposit, after health-insurance premium) and you still can't afford a house!? Huh....

I don't know where you figured I make that kind of money. You should probably read my post again. Never disclosed how much money I make - but I can tell you it sure as hell ain't $1600 a week.
