A movie taking you through the legalized medical cannabis process, yet spreading bullshit and marketing hype right out of the gate. Kinda pissed me off, and I quit watching it. I would expect this from a major manufacturer, but not from those we are supposed to trust with dispensing our meds. Whether it was a moron behind the counter, a moron that trained the moron behind the counter, or a business owner adding $10 a gram just by marketing a color change as a relevant distinguishing feature...bullshit is bullshit.

I guess once I've mellowed-out a tad, I'll watch the rest of the movie, but I would have expected better from a cannabis provider, in charge of dispensing other people's meds. (there ought to be a law against these practices, lol)

Anyone see the NORML ad's on Fox News channel...? It's about time! :thumbsup:
tell me about it.. I swear most people who smoke bud are air heads.. which actually reflects the general population anyway. One of my best friends (as much as I like him) gets bud from Cali that they charge as much as 150/quarter.. 500/oz. They claim that it's so good because its "Cali" bud (no such fucking thing unless it is a Cali landrace if you ask me)and thats where all the good stuff comes from. It comes from the medical disp. as far as I know and yeah the quality is some of the best I've ever had but when I lived in GA the Florida bud we were getting was just as good (whether it was homegrown or outdoor). I used to tell them this and they said.. "Florida isn't known for having good bud".

WHAT!!! that is some air headed shit to say given the fact that good bud can be grown anywhere. It is so much hype floating around in the cannabis community that it is sad. I don't try to enlighten people anymore. Just let them remain ignorant.
