just in from 9 news an hour ago.

I've defended this bill in the past, and now I just keep my mouth shut. I'll just add that the Republicans have now introduced an alternative bill that bans all dispensaries and retail sales of medical marijuana.

Well fuck...let's just do that too. That way we can get rid of the big dispensaries who are fucking over the little guy and just go back to the good old days when we bartered marijuana for little pieces of green paper.

At least the 5 patient limit won't stand up in court. Corry has proved that twice now? The real question is when will this shit be enforced? And how the hell are the politicians getting away with this?

yea i'd like to know more about last nite but all i could find so far was that 9news.but from the sound of it romer was trying to make it to where no one could be a caregiver. except the big shops with plenty of money to pay all the bs fees? if what was said above is true about banning the deliveries then i could see that as an attack on the small guys?

now if this is not true and all this is about the shops only then i ask wtf have the shops been doing.everytime i talk to a shop owner they say they stay on top of this shit then they don't do shit?:wtf:

I spent hours listening to testimony and then listing to amendments made and passed at the end and IMO it was very obvious this bill is sponsored by big out of state dispensaries who will be fathered in under the 2 year residency law, it does not matter that the people spoke and 99% asked for the bill to be killed, come to think of it Josh Stanley from peace in medicine and 2 others were in favor the rest want it killed.

IMO the 2 year wait is there to stop any more Cali money from coming in and setting up and ruining the unofficial partnership between Romer and the farmacy, patients choice and a few others, the bottom line is they saw the money train leaving cali and headed to co, so as usual Californians have fucked over Colorado yet again.

My attorney and a few of my patients attended this a couple of weeks ago:
Cannabis Convention Draws Crowds In Denver - cbs4denver.com
My attorney called me up and opined that the whole thing was pretty much sponsored by Cali interests.

The only resolve now will be the hopes that Rob Corry will move forward with all law suites possible, this bill will be signed by the gov very soon and like Romer said, 80% of all disp. will be gone, no more independant growers, and yes all will be controlled by the dept. of revenue and thier gun toting puppets.

An injunction looks to be the only hope at this point.

On a another note; has anyone found out which 2 breeders up North have sold their seed line to U.S. owned pharmaceutical company?

One of those big seed companies that I never buy seeds from because it would be illegal to acquire my seeds from a foriegn country sent me an e-mail the other day saying that they had decided not to go through with the big pharma offer. I followed up with them and didn't support their decision by not ordering some really high end genetics.

just found out some key things here and pretty much were all fucked.1st off they are trying to get this passed in the next week or so and it will then go in effect by july of this year.also all of our records that are supposed to be sealed by the state will be fair game to all leo.they also want upwards of 35 to 50k upfront for any shop to stay in biz no payments no nothing all monies in full or you close down.they are trying to bring the 5 patient rule back into play and even then after this passes if you do still want to be a caregiver on a small scale you have to give all your hard work and time away for free you can't charge anything for it. talk about romer being a total sell out.so as old elmer says thats all folks.wtf this is going to sink aton of people aton.

ps so much for good things to come.

So much of this shit is unconstitutional its unreal. The owner of Grateful Meds did a stand up job testifying on behalf of all patients and caregivers.

In what way?

[palerider7777]

lmao i am but the way it looks i don't see how anyone could make a profit when you won't be allowed to accept any money at all.and if you did find away it would'nt be long and they would find away to correct their error.
