Senate votes 6-0 in favor of HB1284

Can we just have one running thread about the house bill? Mods? Are there mods?

I'd rather see a hundred threads with ten thousand patients posting than just one little thread. But I can see you're point, you're disp thread is hard to find now lol :D

I want to see some articles in the papers from caregivers and patients describing what this bill is going to do to everyone. We need more people ringing the phones off the hook and sending emails.

one thing that may speak to politicians more than the patients, is what this will do to the fragile Colorado economy. This is going to open up a bunch of commercial real estate and put a bunch of people out of work. Even landlords who didn't rent to MMJ enterprises will be effected as more space is on the market. This will also lower appraisals and revenues. There are lots of other business supported by secondary services to dispensaries (insurance, accountants, etc) that will take a hit as well. Less players in the market place is bad for everyone, not just the patients.

And these "thugs and thieves" Massa Romer keeps speaking of, will all be in need of another way to make a living. sweet!

Please. If you want to lump us in with dispensaries that post their specials and run, that's not fair.

I just wanted to improve the quality of discussion by organizing thoughts on one "topic" to one area. Seems like that's the concept of forums.
