YEA, and thats exactly why alot of people are starting to question MMJ and the decisions that they made in the past about passing legislation. IMHO, i think its to easy for anyone to go in and get a recommendation, and thats not only my opinion.i think that if you need it, fine, you should be able to get it without issues, if you can PROVE you need it. it wouldnt suprise me that if AB390 doesnt go thru that the state seriously re-examines the whole issue. all one has to do is go to any emergency room, and tell the dr they have this pain or that pain, and 99% of them will write you a script on the spot for vicodin or something similar, and there ya go, off to the MMJ dr who will gladly write you up for as much as you want, and even over limits if you ask. i personally think that to many people abuse the system, and that a person should be required to present actual DR records detailing medications, exactly whats wrong with you,ect for at LEAST 6 months back before the MMJ dr even considers writing a recommendation. as a MMJ patient, ive gotten my reccomendation twice ( 3 major back ops, left arm and shoulder artifical bones, right arm severed and re-attached,left cheek rebuilt,orbital socket on left rebuilt,ect,ect.....4-5 80mg oxycontin pills a day, 4-5 15mg oxy IR for breakthru, vicodin and norco as needed) . the first time i got it dr. toy, grass valley) i ddnt have to show him a single thing. i walked in, told him what was wrong with me, and without somuch as an examination, he wrote me up for like 2 1/2 times the county limit. the second time i went in, the dr i saw actually looked at my records ( i have them all for the last 20 yrs) and told me that it was actually refreshing to see someone that actually had something wrong wit them that was verifiable, and that i had more stuff wrong with me that qualified me than any 4 of his patients combined. the problem is that when 215 hit, everyone who smoked it for recreation before now came up with all of this shit wrong with them, and ran down and got the rec. now, alot of people who were for 215 are now having second thoughts, because anyone who wants it can get it, without so much as a shred of proof. alot of counties are getting fed up with everyone wanting to open all of these dispensaries up and sell,sell,sell......thats why there getting CLOSED everywere now.

nothing personal, but i think eventually, all of the BS is going to run MMJ into the GROUND for everyone.
