Subject: RE: BS: L.A. to Shut Down Pot Shops...
Anyone who is interested may read about it HERE.

We only have one dispensary within probably about 60-80 miles. Most of them are in Denver which is even farther. I am interested in what happens with this issue. Since I started using medical marijuana (infused in yummy "sour apple tarts")I have been virtually pain-free after having chronic pain since I was seventeen. No pain drugs with all of their awful side effects and possible interaction with my other meds. I can sleep without tossing and turning due to aching shoulders and neck; I can walk without excruciating foot pain, and am generally in a more positive frame of mind and physicality. Also, there is very little THC in what I buy...I have yet to "trip out." This from someone who never even tried mj at any time in my life. Medical marijuana is the first time I've ever tried it.

Most of the docs I've talked with about it, say they would dispense it if it were like a regular prescription (legally)and/or, they would like to see it available that way OR sold as alcohol is.

I hope this country will stop with its stupid fear of "potheads."
