I have since had second thoughts. Regardless, that is not my reason for asking the question to begin with. It is all about the erosion of our ( yes ALL of OUR ) rights.

When I go to my Dr. and it is suggested that I try a medication that may help my condition and that happens to be a controlled substance and I go to the pharmacy to obtain the prescription, I am not treated like a criminal to get the medication. Period. There may be cameras, but they are for the security of the pharmacy in case of robbery etc..., not to capture my transaction in case I should decide to go out and sell my prescription. They don't give a rats ass about me, it is for their protection to identify someone that takes from them. Do you think big pharma would stand by and let their customers be treated like criminals for buying their products. Hell no they would not, nor would the liquor industry stand for similar regulations. They would flobby the hell out of the government to protect the PRIVACY of their customers. But the MMC's seem to be willing to throw away whatever of their patients rights so they can continue to operate and make money. I don't have a problem with them or anyone else making money, that is the name of the game, just don't trample on the rights of your customers to do it! If it is this way for MMJ then let's make it this way for any product that you must have a prescription for or be a certain age to obtain. I wonder if the elected officials would be so happy to have their transactions videotaped, OH WAIT did we not just see how one of them acted when he was on camera negotiating with a MMC owner, then tore up his amendment when he was caught on VIDEO. Guess they would not care too much for their privacy to be stripped away either, and that happenned in a public forum. It is all about your rights being taken away from you so that others may profit.

You are 100% on point with the above. Thank you.:thumbsup:
