All of that is consistent with what I'm hearing from the DoR. SoCo's account of the MMBA meeting last night seems to support this, as well.



How many caregivers have spoken at a city council meetings or testified in front of the legislature and had this happen? I know tons of caregivers who are still growing happily after writing a letter to their councilperson. At least you still have your power of attorney. MMC's have sacrificed everything.

I still think there are more caregivers hiding because they have something to hide.
Releaf center, I also say about your center..I have not heard anything negative about your place, I truly wish you success as I do believe there is a real need for patients to safely access their medicine, and if the releaf center provides that than I say hooray!! To address your post; I do not have a problem at all with the DOR being able to verify patient / plant / product counts. I applaud the fact that law enforcement will be able to verify 24 hours a day if a patient is active in the registry...using the information provided by the patient. That is a good thing for everyone. I again need to express my opinion on the cameras being used to record the identity and purchase history of patients. WHY? Hell if they are monitoring you guys from the time you plant a seed till the time the medicine leaves your place of business in the hands of a private patient, they are monitoring your books and will be able to see everything you do in real time with the flip of a switch, why oh why do they need a video record IDENTIFYING the patient and the quantity of medicine they purchase? I do not go through this for any other purchases I make, anywhere, anytime. Yes there are cameras everywhere, but as previously stated they are for the protection of the business, not to monitor how many pills the pharmacist is putting into my bottle, ( that evidence is already logged, but not with a video recorder )they want evidence of the sob that is trying to steal from them. There is a big difference. I am so sick of being treated like a criminal for using a medicine that for me has very good pain relieving effects as well as many other health benefits that have been documented in my medical records by my DRs. Enough is enough man, I understand you need your business to flourish, you have bills to pay just like the rest of us, at the beginning of the post, I asked the question as to my curiosity of how many folks are willing to date big brother, and outside of a few responses this is turning to a thread to support the DOR's propsed regulations. If they are passed, like I said in the beginning I will not shop at another MMC, dispensary or whatever name they want to change it to next. I wish you good luck and hope your shop prospers after the big brother effect.
