Tacoma Medical Marijuana
I've had AIDS since '93.

I'm tired of waiting for the government to follow the mandate of the people.
At this point, I'm more angry at the government than scared of it - and I believe in jury nullification.
Until December, I was on SSI. No one "in the business" gave me even so much as a free seed. There were plenty of so-called "compassionate souls" asking $20 - $30 a gram, though.

And, yes, we do actually give away a fair portion of the product. That's one of the problems we have. It's not like we're even getting the full $40/eighth. Just yesterday, we paid for a doctors visit for a patient who called and was desperate for help. Do you think she went home without meds? Do you think she paid for them? So, that's a case where we gave away $200 AND some meds. That was yesterday in Tacoma - not long, long ago in some far away land.
Here's the deal: so far, only criminals and greedy types are in this industry in Washington. There are co-ops and patient groups. But, they operate very quietly. The average person would take months to find one. So, we want to change things. Unfortunately, though, we're just regular patients with no real resources. We don't have the kind of money it takes to even rent a building. So, it figures we would want to do this. The people we help are OUR people.
