New medical marijuana coop in Tacoma

I'm sorry you didn't understand our procedure!!! and yes we do accept paper authorizations they just need to be verified 1st... and we do not directly contact doctors to verify as this would jeopardize them!!! As you have stated we are tolerated by local law enforcement so by contacting a doctor he would be Aiding and Abetting to provide cannabis to people which is illegal under federal law... [any doctor who is in direct contact with the cannabis provider is only risking lose of license/arrest].

As indicated by the Supreme Court of the United States, â??In order to aid and abet another to commit a crime it is necessary that a defendant 'in some sort associate himself with the venture, that he participate in it as in something that he wishes to bring about, that he seek by his action to make it succeed.â?� Nye & Nissen v. United States, 336 U.S. 613, 618 (1949) quoting Judge Learned Hand in U.S. v. Peoni 100 F.2d 401, 402 (2d. Cir. 1938).

I think calling the doctor to ask if he/she signed the authorization [Just so we can feel better about giving you access to medical cannabis] would qualify as Aiding and Abetting

Read what Drug Policy Alliance Network says about what a doctor can and can not do: Medical Marijuana Cases: Conant v. Walters

All you have to do to be able to visit us is go get your paper authorization verified by Olympia patient Resource Center or any other patient ID center.

Sorry if you still feel upset!!!

We feel that we are protecting the doctors license/freedom which in turn helps protect you.

There was 1 in Seattle and 1 in Tacoma but not sure if they are still around? Haven't seen any other verification cards besides OPRC coming in recently.

Would love to find out so we can refer people to them!!! Let me know if you hear of any???
