They have to know that if they get rid of medical cannabis those patients wont buy their stuff from the state. They will go back to the black market. I-502 is set up to fail, lets hope it does :fire:

One problem is that the liquor control board does not have the qualifications to ensure that there is a safe healthy supply available for all. They are a taxing and enforcement agency. They are NOT the FDA, the USDA, or anything similar to that at the local state level.

That also does NOT mean that they have to destroy the medical marijauna system in order to gain monopoly control over the market. They are recommending to stop personal patient grows, caregiver grows and force patients to purchase at recreational licensed stores. Its unethical and immoral to apply a sin tax on someone because they need medicine.

If they have their way they will turn me into a criminal because I want to grow my own medicine AND help those that can't grow their own medicine, instead of paying the state taxes for the privledge of paying some industrial grower, when I can grow better cleaner and healthier medicine myself.

Really? You honestly think pot and alcohol are the same. I really dont even know what to say to you do you even believe in medical marijuana or do you just think its something else for you and your buddies to get messed up on?

You really dont understand how the government is trying to get there hand in to marijuana and completely control it they dont even want patients to be able to grow it. Honestly you sound like you need to do some research before you speak on the issue not to be rude but i just think everyone should know what is actually going on

It sounds like Washington legislators are trying to cook up a copy of the MMAR in Canada, except they aren't forcing the producers to test the product?...
Are they also trying to get rid of the collectives and home growers (i.e. turn them back into criminals under state law) like our glorious Conservatives led by Stephen "Do I look like I smoke pot" Harper?

If so, you people are getting royally screwed.

Hey - I understand where everyone is coming from. But let's say - that legal pot is being sold all over the place in a couple years. Yeah - I think that's great. But I want to know what I'm getting when I buy it. I want to know where it was grown, maybe what the THC content is, if it's organic, etc... And there needs to be a governing body to do that. So I'm thinking the same dudes that run the liquor show could do it so we don't have to create some whole other bureaucracy. I love you guys and RIU so please don't crap on me. I just want good, healthy pot for me and my family wherever I go.

Me personally I feel the market would take care of all of those problems if you grow super chemed out pot and use nasty shit to kill bugs and mold people will know and your shit won't sell you can say allot about stoners but for the most part at least around here people demand quality and there being so many choices the guy with all that worrisome pot your concerned about won't be around long enough to harm anyone except himself. The state needs to allow people to do there thing and they would make so much more than by over regulating it to death. SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BLACK MARKET cause that is what these laws are doing reinvigorating a diminished black market I'm personally all for the return of great black market pot but hey that's just cause i'm for a different generation

I honestly think that not a politician in this country is concerned for the common citizen. They only care about how much money they can make while in office. It's sad that they'd rather line their pockets with more cash than allow ill people access to good, cheap medicine.
