What's the point of going to a dispensary?

And still as sad as it is to say, our best response is to get on these juries. No matter how many times we try to legalize this the thugs are going to keep arresting patients. So get on these juries and just stick to your guns and say not guilty. Its the last place left in America where a person's vote actually counts.

Since dispensaries are illegal, how is buying MJ from a dispensary any safer (legally) than buying off a dealer? Not to mention that many of the providers on THCF Bellevue's list require you to provide documentation with your ID, thereby leaving a paper trail.

Have any patients gotten in trouble with law enforcement for seeking MJ through a dispensary?

I've never tried MJ; just want to try quality product once without hassle or concerns of getting in legal trouble.

See the police and everyone have it misconstrued. The professional locations get the medicine from other patients and they never assist more than one
person at a time. also the medicine is clearly donation. The price ur paying is the cost for the compensation given to the helping patient in regards to power, labor, supplies etc. Than the stores take their overhead cost, labor cost, supplies etc and thats how the cost is associated. people are paying for labor, power, business location cost etc. The medicine is slearly a donation. A huge example of how dispensaries help is people on fixed incomes with no place to grow for themselves and no provider they can trust or mayby cant find one. Also a severe ms patient etc cannot physically grow for themselves so its a convenience for them. Also think about this if someone robs you for the medicine u grew for yourself you could call the cops and as long as ur legit and following ur limit the cops would catch them and press charged for the theft. and the person would have to pay restitution for the medicine they stole. But thats like the state/cops making it basically where you sold marijuana to the person because they paid restitution for what they stole.
