Dispensaries Are Legal Under California State Law.

What is very true is that the News hasn't spread very fast.

True there are the local papers and media cannabis related but in general nothing is being said much for the whole state.

LOL. I posted this over a week ago in the California Patients section, didn't get too many replies there either.

Sort of like the "Slaves are free but try and own your own farm?"

What I wonder is what kind of legal defence this provides.

I am consdiering a Cannabis related small business as in I work for legal people being a legal person myself. I would assume that like Slaves being lynched it is a relative threat no matter where my "cannabis-black-ass" grows"


Still if this is "Crack" it's good "Crack."

Well, Federal is an overseer of the nation; however, it also is a controller of world-influence and that forms a Governmental power that not only effects other Nations but feeds back on all the States,so in it's role as the all things International and National in it's mission is beyond the nature of "Home Land Security." The Mantra is "American Interests" which , since international investments are the major influence on this behaviour means that it regulates not only California Medical Cannabis (which it has demoted on an international commerce level ) , it also deals with International Drug Trade which it has not stopped. So, this means our Federal Government likes the Status Quo.

Rights for us "Cannabis-Niggers" will be slow to arise as we are seeing. The Last thing we will see is the right to consume cannabis as we would beer!

So why the Feds do as they do is simple; They are supposed to look out for "us." Yet as we see they bail out banks before they generate jobs for us all. That alone tells us the priority of any political party and it's control of our protectorate.

I hope that answers your question.

A bipartisan coalition of Congressional lawmakers yesterday reintroduced federal legislation to provide state-authorized medical marijuana patients and their providers with an affirmative defense from federal prosecution. The legislation, H.R. 6134 –- The Truth in Trials Act (Read the text of the bill here.) –- would allow certain federal defendants the opportunity to “introduce evidence (at trial) demonstrating that the marijuana-related activities for which the person stands accused were performed in compliance with state law regarding the medical use of marijuana.”
It states, “It is an affirmative defense to a prosecution or proceeding under any federal law for marijuana-related activities, which the proponent must establish by a preponderance of the evidence, that those activities comply with state law regarding the medical use of marijuana.”
Fifteen Democrats and three Republicans are sponsoring the measure.
Under present law, federal defendants are legally prevented from presenting evidence at trial that their actions were in compliance with state medical marijuana laws — or even acknowledging the fact that cannabis possesses therapeutic value — because the substance remains classified as a Schedule I prohibited substance under federal law. Passage of the Truth in Trials Act would ease these restrictions.
House Bill 6134 is pending before the House Committee on the Judiciary, which is Chaired by ardent pot prohibitionist Lamar Smith (R-TX).
Advocates can voice their support for The Truth in Trials Act to their members of Congress here.
Of course, this legislation would not even be necessary were the Obama administration simply to have upheld the President’s one-time pledge to no longer use federal “Justice Department resources to try to circumvent state laws” regulating the physician authorized use and distribution of medical cannabis. You can tell President Obama to halt the administration’s escalating attack on medical cannabis here.
