100 dispensaries are in violation of STATE LAW

She's actually being blocked currently, but she's definitely not the most marijuana friendly appointment. Do I think Obama said "Listen, I'm appointing her because she's going to take out medical marijuana in this country"? No.

Most people have little to fear from the DEA. Simple possession isn't a case they try in federal courts.

I wasn't aware that she is being blocked. It's the people with massive amounts plants who needs to be worried but I don't Colorado to be like California a few years ago. That was horrible and I'd hate to see any fellow tax paying citizen go down like that. That's the only reason I'm worried but I know many reps from states with laws in place are speaking up. I'm hoping there is some kind of law passed in the next year or so that protects law abiding patients/caregivers from federal prosecution (I got high hopes with little expectation tho).

That was a particularly unfortunate misspelling of renege. I loled.

Really? You're sick? You loathe ReLeaf?
Why because they have a different view than yours?
Chris B is an idiot - he was then & he still is.
Who in their right minds would grow, what was it something like over 600 plants in a residential home, just down the street from a elementary school and in Highlands Ranch and then to top it all off - go on TV & brag about it?
Who would - an idiot would.

If someone is going to do something like, show some respect to your neighbors and get a place in the mountains or at least a place with some land.

And dude you need to relax a bit. Nothing wrong with people having different opinions. Certainly shouldn't make you sick.

You're right, that was uncalled for, I apologize for the personal attack.

Prior to medical marijuana, news stories would say that you were stupid if you grew a few plants in your house. The main reason given was because its illegal.

I remember years ago a story where they were bashing a doctor because he threw away his medical career because he grew a couple plants and got caught. Oh what a foolish man. Never mind the fact that HE went to medical school not them.

You have to be careful of blindly accepting social norms because they change quickly. Doing something simply because it is the law is not necessarily a good reason.

I don't see Chris B's high plant number, or the fact that he was close to a school as relevant. You say its a elementary school, what are 5th graders going to do break into his house and smoke his pot?

But the issue of the feds coming in could be a whole separate debate, you can see cases of it everywhere not just mmj.

I believe that nobody should go to jail for marijuana. Look at Marc Emery from Canada, he thought like you that the feds would leave him alone, but I guess he was just stupid for having a loud mouth so its OK for the feds to nail him?

Chris B's electricity was rigged badly and not within any kind of code. A Fire hazard for sure and I'm surprised that wasn't brought up.
His presence near an elementary school was stupid of him because there are other stupid people who think that plants near a school are dangerous (not my opinion but you have to agree there are stupid people who think that way). If you're going to do something illegal that involves what most people consider drug-related - best to do it as far away from children as possible.
And he knew he wasn't in compliance even with State MMJ laws as he didn't have enough patients to cover his number of plants.

Now Marc - that's a bunch of BULLSHIT there. I couldn't believe Canada sucked on USA's cock and turned him over to the US. Pure BS. Of course the shit that Rick Simpson is having to go through with the RCMP is a bunch of bullshit too!

The only people who should go to jail for MJ are those that know their product contains dangerous chemicals from pesticide use or has mold. A little bit of pm or mites aren't going to hurt anyone, just hurts bag appeal. But folks start using all kinds of nasty stuff to get rid of whatever disease or pest they acquired and then still harvest it and sell that now poisonous gear. Luckily I don't know of anyone who has died or even gotten sick (well back in the 80's the Mexican government aerial-sprayed fields with some poison that got some people sick - that's the only story I know of)

Anyway, my point was debating is great and I think we're all mature enough to handle a heated debate but there's no need to bash on a fellow forum member (unless that member happens to be T. Tipton - then bash away! Hate that fucker)
