Mainers to
vote on medicinal pot dispensaries" by Clarke Canfield, Associated Press Writer |
October 23, 2009 PORTLAND, Maine --A decade ago, Maine voters overwhelmingly approved a referendum allowing people to legally possess marijuana for medicinal purposes. On Nov. 3, voters will decide whether to allow dispensaries from which the drug could be distributed to patients.
Under the current law, doctors in Maine can recommend pot to patients with certain debilitating conditions such as glaucoma, cancer and AIDS. But many of those patients don't have a legal way to obtain marijuana, said Jonathan Leavitt, coordinator of the Maine Citizens for Patients' Rights, which is spearheading the referendum. "This is what was lacking in the last law," Leavitt said.
This is what is NUTS about AMERIKA!!!!
We are TALKING ABOUT SICK PEOPLE for GOD'S SAKE!!!!!
WHO CARES about the "POLITICS!!"
We can ARGUE THAT further down.
But Question 5 on the ballot is drawing opposition from law enforcement and drug prevention officials.
AS USUAL! SELF - ($$$$) -SERVING INTEREST at WORK AGAIN!
And I'M SURE WE WILL hear a bunch of HORROR STORIES and WHAT ABOUT the CHILDREN s***?
Yeah, WHAT ABOUT the KIDS GOING OFF to WARS based on LIES and the FARAWAY BROWN PEOPLE STANDING UNDER THOSE BOMBS?!!!
What about THOSE KIDS?!!!!
Guy Cousins, director of the Maine Office of Substance Abuse, said setting up a distribution network would only increase the availability of marijuana to people not authorized to have it. Compounding the matter, he said, is the lack of control over the dosage and potency of the pot that's being distributed. "We have tremendous compassion for people with terminal illnesses who are seeking to use this as alternative medication," Cousins said. "The concern is a larger public safety and public health issue."
(Sound of blog editor inhaling)
What you say?
In 1999, Mainers by a 61-39 margin approved a referendum to legalize the medical use of marijuana. Maine is one of 14 states with medical marijuana laws on the books.
In Maine, people are allowed to possess up to 2 1/2 ounces of marijuana and up to six marijuana plants if a doctor recommends that it would help with their sickness. But most patients don't grow their own plants, forcing them to get the drug illegally from dealers or other patients, said 31-year-old Seamus Maguire, a medical-marijuana user from Portland who suffers from a rare form of lymphoma. The new law will give sick people a legal and convenient way to buy marijuana, Maguire said. "It's horrible that people that need it as medicine are unable to get it without worrying about going to jail," Maguire said.
Yeah, AND THAT is ANOTHER THING!
The CIA/MOSSAD CRIME CABAL RUNS the DRUGS, the BANKS that GOT BILLIONS in BAILOUT LOOT LAUNDER the PROCEEDS, and then KICK SO JOE- and JANE SICK-PACK (sic) into a CAGE for USING!!!
Starts making you wonder WHO is SMOKING what around here!!!
If the referendum is approved, dispensaries would have to operate as nonprofits and couldn't be within 500 feet of schools. They would be regulated by the Department of Health and Human Services.
But it IS OKAY here in Massachusetts to have a LIQUOR STORE WITHIN that BOUNDARY!!!!! How about that, huh?
Also see: Mass. Lawmaker Boozes Up On Bathroom Break in New Hampshire
Be careful trick or treating, kids!!!!
They might operate in storefronts, in office parks or under the roofs of existing nonprofit organizations that already provide care for sick people, Leavitt said. Besides allowing for dispensaries, Question 5 would create voluntary ID cards for people who are allowed to legally possess marijuana and expand the medical conditions under which people could be prescribed the herb.
I smell something that stinks, readers, and it ain't the weed!
I just caught a WHIFF of PROFIT-MAKING FASCISM! The SPECIAL INTERESTS and TYRANNY always have to get there cuts in, don't they?
I LIKE the EXPANSION of PRESCRIPTION AILMENTS, but WHY the "voluntary" ID? WTF is with that? First voluntary, THEN MANDATORY! Go ask an NFL player who BLOWS OFF the "voluntary" work-outs.
The law now allows doctors to recommend marijuana for people who have persistent nausea, vomiting, wasting syndrome or loss of appetite because of AIDS or chemotherapy or radiation treatment used for cancer; who have heightened pressure on their eyes because of glaucoma; who have epileptic seizures; or who have persistent muscle spasms from a disease such as multiple sclerosis. The new law would expand the availability of marijuana to people to other conditions, including hepatitis C, Lou Gehrig's disease, Crohn's disease and Alzheimer's.
The thing is, if you start saying legalization here you are an agenda-pushing heretic with ulterior motives to the newspaper. It is ONLY THEIR AGENDA-PUSHING CAUSES that are to be PRAISED. I won't go there yet.
The Maine Chiefs of Police Association voted 32-0 at a recent board meeting to oppose the law, said Executive Director Robert Schwartz. Law officers are concerned the referendum, as currently written, does not provide the state enough control over who could dispense marijuana and where it could be distributed, he said.
Cough, cough, cough, cough!!!
Of course, anything that might actual help you stay alive, government opposes.

And they WONDER why WE DON'T TRUST THEM?????????????
Marijuana dispensaries, he said, should be subject to the same strict controls as pharmacies. "It just appears there are a lot of issues we aren't prepared to deal with at this point," Schwartz said.
Schwartz said Maine police are keeping an eye on California, which has thousands of pot dispensaries, many that advertise freely and offer daily specials and discount coupons.

"Battle brewing in LA over marijuana stores; City has too many, advocates and officials agree" by Solomon Moore, New York Times | October 18, 2009
LOS ANGELES - There are more marijuana stores here than public schools. Signs emblazoned with cannabis plants or green crosses sit next to dry cleaners, gas stations, and restaurants.
Yeah, so?
There are A LOT of BUSINESSES that OUTNUMBER SCHOOLS in areas all across this nation.
What's your poi.... oooooooohhh?
The dispensaries range from Hollywood-day-spa fabulous to shoddy storefronts with hand-painted billboards. Cannabis advocates say that more than 800 dispensaries have sprouted here since 2002; some law enforcement officials say it is closer to 1,000. Whatever the actual number, everyone agrees there are too many.
Yeah, WHO CARES about ACCURATE FACTS, 'eh, NYT?!!!!!!
Maybe someone should test them!
And so this, too, is taken for granted: Crackdowns on cannabis clubs will soon occur in this city, which has more dispensaries than any other. For the first time, law enforcement officials in Los Angeles have vowed to prosecute medical marijuana dispensaries that turn a profit, with police officials saying they expect to conduct raids.
What, NO VIOLENCE or DRUG-DEALING GANGS for the L.A. COPS to BEAT, 'er, LOOT, 'er, you know what I mean!!!
UN-FLIPPIN-REAL!
That buzz wore off quick because now I'm angry!!!!
Their efforts are widely seen as a campaign to sway the City Council into adopting strict regulations after two years of debate. It appears to be working.... The new proposal calls for dispensaries to have renewable permits, submit to criminal record checks, register the names of members with the police, and operate on a nonprofit basis.
But WAR LOOTERS and BANKSTERS -- no problem!!!
I SMELL L.A. TRYANNY!!!!!
If enacted, it is likely to result in the closing of hundreds of marijuana dispensaries.
Yeah, F*** what CALIFORNIA VOTERS WANT and WHAT SICK PEOPLE NEED!
Because the STATE ain't MAKING a BUCK of it!!!
Then LEGALIZE and ADD a TAX like BOOZE and CIGARETTES!
Or PROHIBIT THEM!! I'm ALL FOR THAT!!!
NO MORE BOOZE and CIGARETTES?!!
We'll have a REVOLUTION on our HANDS!!!!!
American people don't care about blood, death, and looting, but TAKE AWAY THEIR BOOZIE and SMOKIE and ARRRRGHH!!!
Carmen A. Trutanich, the newly elected city attorney, argued that state law permits the exchange of marijuana between growers and patients on a nonprofit and noncash-basis only.
And HOW MUCH do they OVERLOOK all over the place with their LOBBYIST KICKBACKS and SELF-SERVING STOCK INTERESTS!!
This is an OUTRAGE!!!
Good think pot-smokers are sleepy souls who don't get angry because they don't know what is going on!!!
Marijuana advocates say that interpretation would regulate dispensaries out of existence and thwart the will of voters who approved medical cannabis in 1996.
That was 13 YEARS AGO and they are STILL FIGHTING the SAME BATTLE?!!
“What is it about democracy that these groups don’t understand?’’
Yeah, I THINK YOU SAID IT!!!
Whatever happens will be closely watched by law enforcement officials and marijuana advocates across the country who are threading their way through federal laws that still treat marijuana as an illegal drug and state laws that are increasingly allowing medicinal use. Thirteen states have laws supporting medical marijuana, and others are considering new legislation.
Ever hear of the Ninth and Tenth Amendments to the Constitution?
Go give 'em a read, and then see if you can find the word "marijuana" in the Constitution.
Woah, that thing is on fire here in AmeriKa, and it wasn't me!
No state has gone further than California, often described by drug enforcement agents as a “source nation’’ because of the vast quantities of marijuana grown here.
Oh, so California is NOW IT'S OWN NATION, huh?
Not PART of the UNITED STATES? What, they secede or something?
You threaten to do that in some parts of this nation and, well, you know....
So the FEDS are SMOKING DOPE? They DON'T KNOW California is a STATE?
And no city in the state has gone further than Los Angeles. This has alarmed local officials, who say dispensary owners in California took unfair advantage of vague state laws....
Yeah, but IF YOU PAD YOUR OWN POCKET and are some influence-peddling politician, then no problem!!!
Don Duncan, spokesman for Americans for Safe Access, a leader in the medical marijuana movement, said over-the-counter cash purchases should be permitted but dispensaries should be nonprofit organizations. He said marijuana collectives needed more regulation and called for a “thinning of the herd.’’
That's SCARY TALK! I guess I must be "paranoid" 'cause of the weed, huh?

"US marijuana cuts into traffickers’ profits" by Steve Fainaru, Washington Post | October 11, 2009
ARCATA, Calif. - Stiff competition from thousands of mom-and-pop marijuana farmers in the United States threatens the bottom line for powerful Mexican drug organizations in a way that decades of arrests and seizures have not, according to law enforcement officials and pot growers in the United States and Mexico.
This is such agenda-pushing garbage!
Oh, right, Washington Post is the CIA 's newspaper!
Why do you want to KILL the NEW ECONOMY, WaPo?
Mom-and-pop honing in on YOUR TURF, huh?
Illicit pot production in the United States has been increasing steadily for decades. But recent changes in state laws that allow the use and cultivation of marijuana for medical purposes are giving US growers a competitive advantage, challenging the traditional dominance of the Mexican traffickers, who once made brands such as Acapulco Gold the standard for quality.
I guess that's why they are lighting their own fields on fire, huh?
After a while, even if you were stoned you can still smell the MSM lies over that pungent stink!
Almost all of the marijuana consumed in the United States once came from Mexico or Colombia. Now as much as half is produced domestically, often by small-scale operators who painstakingly tend greenhouses and indoor gardens to produce the more potent, and expensive, product, according to authorities and marijuana dealers on both sides of the border.
Translation: The AUTHORITIES and the DEALERS are ONE in the SAME!
The shifting economics of the marijuana trade have broad implications for Mexico’s war against the drug cartels, suggesting that market forces, as much as law enforcement, can extract a heavy price from criminal organizations that have used the spectacular profits generated by pot sales to fuel the violence and corruption that plague Mexico.
It's the LEAST PROFITABLE ONE to MOVE!
It's BULKY, it STINKS.
They THINK WE ARE IDIOTS OUT HERE!
Meanwhile, some ****** kid can make ecstasy in his bathtub!
And WHEN was the last time you heard about Mexico, eh?
While the trafficking of cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamine is the main focus of US law enforcement, marijuana has long provided most of the revenue for Mexican drug cartels. More than 60 percent of the cartels’ revenue - $8.6 billion out of $13.8 billion in 2006 - came from US marijuana sales, according to the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy.
Well, since the CIA is working with them I guess they would know.
Now, to stay competitive, Mexican traffickers are changing their business model to improve their product and streamline delivery. Well-organized Mexican cartels have also moved to increasingly cultivate marijuana on public lands in the United States, according to the National Drug Intelligence Center and local authorities. This strategy gives the Mexicans direct access to US markets, avoids the risk of seizure at the border, and reduces transportation costs.
So WHAT are the PARK RANGERS, DEA AGENTS, and ALL the OTHER SPY TOOLS doing?
Just KEEPING an EYE on the CROP, huh -- when the Mexicans aren't burning them down!!
The government thinks we are all stoned in one form or fashion, and the MSM farts in our faces thinking we can't smell it if they expect us to BELIEVE SUCH LIES!
Unlike cocaine, which the traffickers must buy and transport from South America, driving up costs, marijuana has been especially lucrative for the cartels because they control the business all the way from clandestine fields in the Mexican mountains to the wholesale dealers in US cities such as Washington. “It’s pure profit,’’ said Jorge Chabat, an expert on the drug trade at the Center for Research and Teaching in Economics in Mexico City.
And WE KNOW WHO is drawing in the dough!
The exact dimensions of the US marijuana market are unknown....
You read so many articles that have bullshit qualifiers in them like this.
The smell isn't the weed, it's the paper.
Mexico produced 35 million pounds of marijuana last year, according to government estimates. On a hidden hilltop field in Mexico’s Sinaloa state, a pound of pot might earn a farmer $25. The wholesale price for the same pound in Phoenix is $550, and so the Mexican cartels could be selling $20 billion worth of marijuana in the US market each year.
“Marijuana created the drug trafficking organizations you see today. The founding families of the cartels got their start with pot. And marijuana remains a highly profitable business they will fight to protect,’’ said Luis Astorga, a leading authority on the drug cartels at the National Autonomous University of Mexico.
Yup, SOMEHOW EVERYONE KNOWS ALL ABOUT IT and NOTHING IS DONE, huh? I guess the FBI, et al, is TOO BUSY SETTING UP FAKE TERRORIST PLOTS, huh?
Led by California, 13 US states now permit some use of marijuana. In many cities, marijuana is one of the lowest priorities for police.
AS IT SHOULD BE (but not in Mass)!
To some authorities, the new laws are essentially licenses to grow money.
Sort of like the SELF-GENERATING PROFITS made of STOCK-TRADING, right?
Why aren't you OUT THERE DEALING WITH THAT!
Remember, readers, we are TALKING SICK PEOPLE HERE!!!!
With a $100 investment in enriched soil and nutrients, almost anyone can cultivate a plant that will produce two pounds of marijuana that can sell for $9,000 in hundreds of medical marijuana clubs or on the street, according to growers.
Yeah, they inflate the numbers at the end to justify all the warring.
High-end marijuana grown under such special conditions often fetches 10 times the price of poor-quality Mexican pot.
WAIT a MINUTE!!
It's POOR QUALITY POT but they MAKE MUCH DINERO?
Oh, the STINK of the MSM SHIT is overwhelming the ganja!

"Marijuana clinic staged near Montana cop shop" by Matt Gouras, Associated Press Writer | October 23, 2009
GREAT FALLS, Mont. --Jason Christ lit a bowl of homegrown marijuana outside the Great Falls Civic Center, not worried that the police station was right around the corner.
Christ was taking a break Friday from teaching hundreds of people inside the center how to get state-issued medical marijuana cards. It was one of the many pot clinics he has held throughout Montana as founder of the Montana Caregivers Network aimed at easing fears and letting people know medical use of marijuana is legal.
"They need to know that," said Christ, who suffers from chronic pain. "No one knows the law, no one knows what it is. We help with that."
Everything about the event was meant to make marijuana users feel at ease. Songs by Bob Marley, Creedence Clearwater Revival and other rock favorites played on a boom box, and two marijuana plants stood at the entrance of the reserved room down the hall from the city clerk's office. There was even a doctor to help people certify they have a medical condition, and some attendees were schooled about growing pot for themselves or others and becoming a state-sanctioned caregiver.
I can see why the Globe missed this one. If it's not illegals, gays, global-warmers, or an agenda-pushing, controlled opposition outfit, protests are not any fun.
For those with certain debilitating medical conditions such as cancer, glaucoma, AIDS, severe muscle spasms or chronic pain, such clinics are their ticket to legally obtaining pot. And the demand is high. Clinics held by Christ in different cities almost every week are sold out a month in advance, he said. In Great Falls, the only walk-ins accepted were people with a terminal disease. Christ began his one-stop clinics a few months ago after seeing that many people were too intimidated to figure out the law or find a doctor to certify a medical condition.
Interest in medical marijuana cards has spiked in Montana, in part due to such clinics, according to the Department of Public Health and Human Services, the agency that issues the pot cards. The number of permit-holders has almost quadrupled since the start of the year. About 4,500 people now hold the cards, and there are 1,429 registered caregivers statewide. Christ is a caregiver, meaning he can legally possess up to an ounce of pot for each of his six patients and one for himself. He can also grow as many as six plants for each patient and six for himself.
Wow, GOOD AIR out in MONTANA!
A person holding just a pot user permit is restricted to having six plants and one ounce of smokeable marijuana at any given time. On Friday, Christ carried four ounces of pot in his backpack. The clinic was held just a few days after the Obama administration loosened guidelines on federal prosecution of medical marijuana cases....
Did he STOP the RAIDS?
Montana is one of 14 states that allow some use of marijuana for medical purposes. The others are Alaska, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington.
But, but, where's Massachusetts?
Where is liberal, tolerant, compassionate, same-sex marriage Massachusetts?
Missed the boat on that one, huh?
In Montana, it was a popular idea with voters -- easily passing as a ballot initiative in 2004 after the Legislature rejected the notion.
You see? YOU CAN'T DEPEND on POLITICIANS for ANYTHING no matter where they are from!
Even though it's legal, there is still a stigma attached to smoking pot.
And WHY WOULD THAT BE, MSM?
And watching someone pull out a bag in broad daylight on busy Central Avenue in Great Falls makes a person start looking over their shoulder.
If you are an obedient fascist, yeah.
The Montana Caregivers Network has been asked by some convention centers where clinics were held to not bother coming back. At Friday's clinic, the onsite doctor and most of those in attendance didn't want their names used.
Think of them as anonymous sources agreeing only to speak on condition of confidentiality, MSM.
Some worried their parole officer would hassle them or the Department of Veterans Affairs would take issue. They also didn't want to reveal they have a bunch of marijuana plants growing at their house.
Why?
The paper talks to illegal immigrants all the time, and they are never reported.
Not everyone was afraid of coming out publicly. Rob Mathews sees the situation as an inevitable step toward society fully recognizing the benefits of marijuana.
I want to marry a pot plant, how is that?
He believes, like many, that a taxed and regulated marijuana trade would fill government coffers and end much of the illegal drug trade.
And since ILLEGAL DRUGS PROP UP BANK PROFITS, that won't be happening -- in addition to all the chemical and pharmaceutical companies that would be out of business.
"They just need to legalize it, man. It's time," he said, adding he suffers from chronic pain. "They just need to do it and be done with it."
Yeah, we NEED the TAX LOOT!

And about as far away from there as you can be in the U.S.

"US issues new policy on medical marijuana" by Devlin Barrett, Associated Press | October 19, 2009
WASHINGTON - The Obama administration will not seek to arrest medical marijuana users and suppliers as long as they conform to state laws, under new policy guidelines to be sent to federal prosecutors today.
Two Justice Department officials described the new policy to the Associated Press, saying prosecutors will be told it is not a good use of their time to arrest people who use or provide medical marijuana in strict compliance with state laws. The new policy is a significant departure from the Bush administration, which insisted it would continue to enforce federal antipot laws regardless of state codes....
Yes, PLEASE REMEMBER we are TALKING SICK PEOPLE here!!!
That SEEMS to get LOST in the "debate," huh?
At the same time, the officials said, the government will still prosecute those who use medical marijuana as a cover for other illegal activity. The memo particularly warns that some suspects may hide drug dealing or other crimes behind a medical marijuana business....
Oh, like a CIA FRONT COMPANY providing NON-OFFICIAL COVER?!!!

Medical marijuana bill fails in New Hampshire" by Norma Love, Associated Press |
October 29, 2009
And I thought you guys were libertarians up there!
You had a chance to be better than us and you blew it!
CONCORD, N.H. - New Hampshire fell
two votes short yesterday of becoming the 14th state to
legalize marijuana use by severely ill people after the state Senate failed to override Governor John Lynch’s
veto....
Lynch cited concerns over cultivation, distribution, and the potential for abuse. He also said the bill did not clearly restrict marijuana use to people with severe pain, seizures, or nausea. The bill would have established three nonprofit “compassion centers’’ to dispense 2 ounces of marijuana every 10 days to severely ill patients whose doctors approve the drug’s use. The state would have licensed the centers and issued identification cards to their staff, approved patients, and care- givers.
Doesn't matter what government you have. They are all the same.
Supporters said that the bill would provide relief to people with chronic or terminal illnesses.
“This is a bill about compassion. It is about using a drug that is relatively safe,’’ said Senator Peggy Gilmour, Democrat of Hollis. “It is up to 16 of us to look at those who suffer and say, ‘I understand and I will help.’ ’’
Unlike that PHARMACEUTICAL PRESCRIPTION they keep PUSHING on your kids!
Opponents said the bill would invite abuse. “This is a terrible message to send to our children,’’ said Senator Robert Letourneau, Republican of Derry.
I told you they would bring that up.
Add it to the list of 10 million bad messages they get every day.
Critics in the House contended that a provision prohibiting workplace discrimination against users created a public safety issue for firefighters, police, and others.
Oh, so NOW DISCRIMINATION is NO BIG DEAL!!!
Tell it to gay crowd, hanh!!!!!!????
“We should err on the side of caution,’’ said Representative Shawn Jasper, Republican of Hudson.
How about RESPECTING the PEOPLE'S WILL!!!!!!
After the vote, the bill’s prime sponsor, Representative Evalyn Merrick, said she will refile the bill for the 2011 legislative session after next year’s election, which will change the makeup of both chambers.... Lynch, who is expected to run for reelection, reiterated his opposition last week after US Attorney John Kacavas said he would not prosecute people using small amounts for pain or to improve their appetite. Kacavas said his office would focus on drug dealers.
Yeah, AS THEY SHOULD BE!!!
