I wouldn't want to be a dispensary or Co-Op with over 100 plants right now...

If the Governor won't sign SSB 5073 the House and Senate can still talk about it and amend it all they want
but I can't what they could do to it in the time left that would make the Feds happy?
You can bet it wouldn't be good for patients...
So I guess that puts all the new dispensaries, collectives, Farmers Markets, combination groups that both authorize patients
and dispense medication in the cross hairs. All these were never allowed under current law if left unchanged, see if they can find any way around
the Feds threats to arrest any and, or, all involved if the bill is signed into law..

Count your blessings David.

From personal experience....just about a week ago, I got a call inviting me to drop by since I hadnt been around for a while.
They told me they missed my top shelf meds.
So I paid them a visit with a couple of ounces thinking that they would donate the usual amount.
They know that I needed 250 to cover my costs and time.
After going upstairs and dropping my quality meds on their table, I watched as the owners dived in with glee and claiming it was all for them and they were not going to sell any to patients.
I was blown away by that comment, but it was just the first thing to amaze me that night.
After smoking some of my stash with them, they continued to fill bowls out of the ounces I just dropped off.
So I figured they decided to take my meds.
This is where it gets interesting. They offered me 200 bucks knowing that I would never take that.But since they had already dipped their paws into the product, I figured it was bought and a price just had to be agreed on.
Well, as they walked me downstairs, I thought they were going for the cash, but instead they showed me the door.
As I stood in their doorway, I was told that I would be paid in a couple of days and the price was the one they had decided on without no choice from me. I couldnt get my meds back since I was now outside, so I went home hoping for the best.
Its now going on two weeks now and not even a call.

Dear Lem,

I have said it before and I will say it again. I KNOW you to be a good man. You and I have not always agreed on methods and preferences, but the one thing we have always seen eye to eye on is the value of compassion and the responsibility to stand for the honest folks.

What you have described above is a Totally unacceptable situation and if this has not been satisfied as of yet, I would like to bring my forces to bear in an attempt to not only satisfy your agreement, but protect the rest of good folks like you who might deal with these people in the future.

You know I have the influence to make a difference in our area and I will bring these forces to bear if you indicate that you have not received satisfaction from this operation.

It's not just about one honest man disrespected and stolen from, it's about ALL of us at risk. If these people will try to do this to YOU, no one else is safe either as you are not a man to be trifled with.

You know where to find me and you are MORE then welcome on my board as was indicated by all recently.

If you give the word, we will stand for the good man that you are and do our part to make sure others know who is trustworthy and who is not.

Thank you for sharing and as always, I look to help and promote honesty and dismiss those who work to exploit.

Will talk soon friend.

Demo!!

In my area there are only 2 dispensaries. I've only gone to one of them because I know the owners of the other and I would never do business with them. Plain and simple the owner has been dealing in all kinds of drugs for years. And even the one I do go to has become corrupt. They have a book of there product in which are samples of all the different strains they sell. Almost 75% of the samples were filled with the same product and marketed as being something they're not. But its bound to happen when you use capitalism as your platform for business. Maximise profits at all costs. I always knew it was the greed that was going to kill this movement.

Greed, and "our group is better then you group BS". In states that have private liquor stores, they all carry the same product, some are able to discounted, others you pay full price. The only way to drive the price down is full legalization, and it will take time for the supply to catch up to the demand in some areas. Its a monster created and allowed to live by the government. Legal cannabis and its revenue can help states fill gaps in the budgets for seniors and the disabled, and other needy people if not diverted to the general funds. Its our elected officials who are the irresponsible ones ignoring the golden goose before their eyes. I'd be satisfied to be able to grow my own without reservation, and any extra would go to those I know personally to cover my expenses and make a reasonable profit margin just like a legitimate business. But bringing sense to the issue will not happen until all get on the same page, and that page is blanket and total legalization. Recreational users far out number medical users and they are just as open for arrest as anyone else. Sign I-1149 and help end the insanity of Reefer Madness exhibited by the government's mythology and pseduo or non science..

I have an inactive co-op and I won't reactivate it until there is full clarity and my legal troubles are over with. And I will operate it when restarted honestly and legally. I hate the legal bullshit that so called friends have put me into while they dance around free and unencumbered as a birds. Its no cost me over a grand and counting. And I could lose my legal right medically. So look out for the hypocrites and those only in it for the money or themselves. :twocents:
