Okay guys, as most of you know, I'm passionate. I'm also want to help put together what would be, in the beginning at least, a small group of DEDICATED individuals who want to help PEACEFULLY :thumbsup: defend our state's Constitution from the perversion that it is about to experience at the hands of 6 misguided individuals.

All I'm asking is for you to commit to ONE meeting. Miss what you gotta miss, do what you gotta do. This means a LOT to you all, or you wouldn't be here. Why wouldn't you be interested in ONE meeting? Are people THAT lazy or scared? Then we REALLY are fucked. But I don't believe that. I believe that we all have greatness in us, and this will not require greatness, just effort. We have Righteousness on our side.

Like that saying goes, "It would be foolish to think that a small group of dedicated individuals cannot change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has".

Sign up, lets make history. But we gotta MOVE!!!

Steve, what your trying to do is admirable and I was wondering if you considered using a programm like skype or even ventrillo to help organize people.

With life in general, health issues, and the fact that this forum does not give us the opportunity to communicate easily having one of these free programs could help confrence calls. If we can all atleast have a back and forth conversation, perhaps, just perhaps, we could become organized.

Just a thought.

I'm in!

Steve, I've tried contacting you through the forum to no avail.

Send me your contact info through reputation. I contacted you using the same. Check your User CP up top!

I can't give you more rep points/contact you again because it tells me I have to spread the points around.

Hey Steve I know I have talked with you in the past about this.
I have a meeting with Corry on the 17th, I would like to propose that we all get together and pool our resources and take action. I am not sure how to move forward that is why I am meeting with Corry. I do know we are all stronger if we stand together instead of each of us trying to fight this individually. It would be nice if we don't get caught up in the small stuff but all agree that it is a bad bill that should not be rushed through for the sake of regulation. But should be defeated and lets go back to the drawing board now that we are all a bit wiser on all sides and can come up with good regulation for the industry.

I agree, and think the only way to move forward is to "play the game" and try to get an injunction against the bill. It's going to cost money, and I think the best way to support a legal challenge is through an effective fund-raising campaign. In parallel, we need to present a logical argument why the bill is unconstitutional, harmful to patients, and does not represent the will of the people expressed in the passing of amendment 20. Of course, putting together this argument is a lawyer's job, but we can help by supplying facts and evidence as needed.

The people who need to pay for this are the ones with a stake in the game, so if you are a caregiver or disp owner, you should contribute. If you are a patient who believes this is not in their best interest, you should contribute and/or write letters to our lawmakers.

I would suggest a PayPal account setup for donations. Disps can be contacted directly and maybe post ads so caregivers and patients are notified and have an opportunity to contribute.

I think some publications would be willing to donate advertising space for the cause as well?

IMO, it'll come down to money. The more on hand, the better the chances to successfully challenge the bill.

Yes, CM, talk to Corry about setting up a legal defense fund to protect members of an association to include patients, caregivers, dispensaries and edible mfgrs. if members get arrested, or for injunctions to prevent closers, constitutional objections, etc. it assures there's an atty available to defend / support us.

I am in, I really do not have a lot of funds but will donate all I can, could even donate product to disp. to sell and use the funds to donate on my behalf, I have been a patient and a caregiver for 10 yrs now and I will not let a bunch of back ass politicians tell me I can no longer do this.

Count me in! We all need to contribute to the cause in whatever ways needed. We're in need of a leader, is Corry the only chance? Can't we have 15 lawyers challenge parts of this bill instead of just one? I know he's probably the best mmj lawyer in the state but should we bring in somebody with even bigger balls? Wouldn't this increase our chances on having the whole bill ruled unconstitutional? I think the real chance we have is fighting this in court, as there are unconstitutional parts in the bill. I think Corry needs to have a meeting with all the caregivers and try to get something done with our help.
