The Future of the Medical Marijuana Program in New Mexico

Very wise.
Yes, I understand we are driving.:thumbsup: I would never argue the fact that mmj is here to stay, I would also never argue its potential in all aspects, Or itâ??s evolution into one unbelievable diversified miracle plant.
I believe in this plant completely, have used it for many years and would not stop using it either just because some fool told me too. My neck is on the chopping block along with every other person whom wants to stop being persecuted because of our need for proper and safe medication. My body is shutting down and I donâ??t want to spend the rest of my days or years locked up. I especially donâ??t want to die there.
I really appreciate your optimistic out look blackhash. It helps me to become a little more positive about my future and the future of these programs. I acted on your advice and things are looking up. Canâ??t say much more;)
I was part of the green cross (now the emerald cross I believe?) in Washington State,. Now New Mexico and soon my home state of Colorado where I will spend the rest of my (hopefully) years.
I will continue to do what I can, as long as I can, where I can.
This miracle plant has saved me mind, body and soul., given me hope and a quality of life I would not other wise have. I will keep on driven that train my friend:jointsmile:
Peace
BTW- Martinez is spooky but hopefully just another bump in the road.

I rechecked my web history and the web page just timed out, they must have taken the poll down. I voted on it before I put the link up. This is strange.

I can't find the vote thing either? Interesting site though:thumbsup:

I read this article. Figured I'd post it here. The bad new is she wants to repeal. The good news is it would be a pain in the ass to do so.

Martinez has high hopes for repeal of medical marijuana « New Mexico Independent

Here is another news article 8-31-10

New Mexico Politics: New Mexico FBIHOP:: Martinez's goal of medical marijuana repeal faces uphill battle

that sounds good but I STILL DON'T LIKE HER

Martinez is most likely going to bury herself but ?
Honestly,.. In reality Martinez would have to do some serious battling ( I mean some serious boxing ) Too even move on her intentions to end this program ,but, If she makes it too Gov ,then, I feel a bigger battle ahead to maintain ones independence with freedom of choice as too their medical care.

My Neighbor and I were talking yesterday, He and I have never spoke of marijuana. I never mentioned that I am a part of this program either and a good thing I didn't.
I get curious as to others stand point on this issue, so I kind of slipped the mmj thing into our conversation and man was I blown away when he told me that our other Neighbor died from a marijuana overdose.? LMFAO
I told him that I didn't think that it was possible (of course it is not possible) and that there has never been a recorded death related directly to a marijuana overdose. Even after the discovery that our neighbor actually died from a meth and other mixed drug cocktail he still remains adamant. Regardless of the facts he is one of those people we can try and educate but he is firm about mmj or marijuana being a very bad gateway drug that infects us all, .Go figure? He knows nothing about my mmj thing and it will remain that way. You can't persuade those whom are not willing to listen or at least look at the facts. IMO my neighbors attitude towards MMJ defines Martinez to a tee.
Also on another note: It may be an Amendment, but, Amendments can be replaced with another amendment, (just like prohibition it can go either way) I understand you can't remove an amendment but you sure as hell can revise it too another. Again heaven and earth will have to be moved first but it only takes one to sway the balance in politics

Mrs. Martinez is also pissing off Richardson and Johnson ,so, she's f#$ked in my book but you never know?

that is my feeling also if they can not handle that it is there problem just leave me alone and I will not bother them

Right on brother !

The problem I see coming from Susana Martinez is not the repeal of the program,but her appointing a new Heath Secretary that is even more conservative than Vigil,so that the program will be null and void.
