[DesertGuy]

Well I live in NM. I am a legal patient here. I can buy 6 ounces at a time--or all the edibles I need or want. I can also grow my own. I was just in my greenhouse--4--- 8 foot tall plants. I'm legal. 20 despensaries around the state--with delivery to your door. Things are changing. I actually left Texas and moved here to get legal. pot is a hell of a lot easier on my liver than pain pills or anti-depressants. They medical that doesn't even get you high. Full of CBD   not  THC.. ..

DESERTGUY, THATS NICE BUT HERE WE GO ,WE CANT DO THINGS AS HUMANS  IN A NORMAL WAY. WE ARE TAKING A GOOD THING AND STARTING TO SCREW IT UP. ITS BEING FARMED TO THE POINT WHERE YOU HAVE A HUNDRED DIFFERNT KINDS AND THERE MAKING IT STONGER AND STRONGER AND THE GOVT.

[DesertGuy]

I'm sorry --but yes we have different views
you can smoke Mexican dirt weed if you want----I  live 80 miles from Mexico, and I prefer medicine. One hit stuff that I don't have to worry about jail time. I had to live in a closet, and not tell anyone about my pot habit for 45 years--no more. had to be a hypocrite when I issued drug tests to my employees. Get over the taxes and money thing. I walk into a dispensary that is a cross between a doctors office and a walgreens.  They have a selection. you have pain--smoke this one.  you have MS, eat this.  You are An arthritic 80 year old--rub this salve on.
these are professionals--with a money back gartentee.
 The pot world is changing rapidly. You talk about costs--there are none if you grow your own legally. Sure it's stronger--that's because it's better. Kinda like being a drunk--do you drink the cheapest or the best--it's your choice.

I PROMISE, I GIVE YOU MY WORD,  JUST WAIT 3 TO 5 YEARS ,IF NOT SOONER AND YOU WILL ONCE AGAIN SEE THE BEAST OF THE SYSTEM AND SCREW UPS FRIGG THIS THING UP. I HAVE A PERSONAL FRIEND WHO HAS A SHOP IN COLORADO WHO WAS ONE OF THE FIRST TO FIGHT FOR THIS AND SUCCEEDED BUT HE JUST RECIEVED HIS COURT HEARING DATE FOR HIS APPEAL OF THERE GOING BACK A YEAR AND EVERY SENT HE MADE IS BEING TAXED. HE OWES OVER A MILLON DOLLARS AND HE IS NOT FIGHTING THE TAX AT THIS POINT ,HES FIGHTING THAT THEY CANT JUST THROW IN A RULING THAT WILL GO BACK A YEAR! IF THEY ARE GOING TO TAX WHICH THEY ARE AND THE TAXES ARE GOING UP QUICK THEN THEY SHOULD START FROM THE DAY THE RULING IS PUT INTO EFFECT. YOU AS A CONSUMER DONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ALL THE HARD WORK THATS BEING DONE BY THESE GUYS AND GALS SO YOU CAN BY YOUR 6 OUNCES ETC. AND TRUST ME MY FRIEND WHO HAS BEEN AT THE FRONT OF THIS MOVEMENT CANT BELIEVE THE RESTRICTIONS AND BULLSHIT THATS COMING DOWN. IF THE FEDS DONT LIKE YOU OR WANT YOU SHUT DOWN THEY CAN.ITS JUST APPROVED STATE WIDE NOT FEDREALLY, SO IN REAL REALITY IF THEY WANTED TOO THEY COULD BUST YOU FOR ABUSE OF THE FEDERAL GUIDELINES..ITS STARTING TO GET NUTS. THE SMALL BUSINESSMEN WHO GOT THIS THING GOING WILL BE AND ARE BEING TAKEN OVER BY MAJOR CORPERATIONS WHO TO THEM A MILLION BUCKS IS NOTHING,JUST LIKE THE PHARMMICUTICAL COMPANYS HAVE RAPED THE SYSTEM THIS WILL BE NOW LABELED A PHARMACUTICAL LOOPHOLE SO THEY AND OUR EYES IN THE SKY WILL BE BRINGING IN TRILLIONS.OH, AND I DONT BUY MEXICAN WEED, IM TALKING ABOUT THE 60S AND 70S .LIKE I SAID I JUST PUT THE SEED IN THE GROUND IN GOOD FERTIL GROUND AND I ONLY NEED TO TAKE ONE OR TWO TOKES TO BE WHERE I WANT TO BE.  HEY, THE STRONGER YOUR TOLERANCE GETS THE MORE POTENT STUFF YOU CAN SMOKE, IN THE BEGINING THE POTENT STUFF KICKS YOUR ASS BUT AFTER AWHILE YOUR SYSTAM ADAPTS.BUT TAKE A YOUNG TEENAGER WHO GETS YOUR LEGAL STUFF AND SMOKES WITH THE BOYS FOR AN HOUR AND THEN GETS IN A VEHICLE AND HEADS DOWN THE ROAD, THIS ISNT MY FIRST RODEO AND I AM A VIETNAM VETERAN THATS DONE EVERYTHING FROM HEROIN, THAI STICK, OPIUM, YOU NAME IT. IVE BEEN IN THE BEST GROW HOUSES IN THE WORLD. ALL I AM SAYING IS WE ARE NEVER SATISFIED, THAT WORD DOESNT EXIST IN OUR SOCIETY . MY DAD ALWAYS SAID 'SON,YOU KNOW HOW TO KEEP A HARDON?' NO DAD HOW DO YOU DO THAT? AND HIS REPLY WAS "DONT FUCK WITH IT!"[EXCUSE THE LANGUAGE BUT MY
OLD MAN WAS BLUNT YET HE WAS KIND AND VERY SMART. SO ENJOY I AM NOT CONDEMING YOU BUT IF YOU DONT GET ONE THIRD OF WHAT IM SAYING HERE THAN MAYBE YOU SHOULD START DOING YOUR HOMEWORK OR DONT CARE ABOUT THE LITTLE GUY WHOS GOING TO END UP UP WITH A BIG, BIG PAIN IN THE ASS AS ALOT OF THEM ARE STARING TO NOW. HAVE YOU NOTICED HOW THE SHOPS OPEN THEN THEY CLOSE  THEN NEW ONES OPEN? THE HASSLE IS BECOMING A PAIN IN THE ASS SO THERE MAKING THE BUCKS OR NOT AND GETTING OUT OF THIS NEW SCREWED UP REGIME KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR. I JUST WANT IT LEGAL BUT NOT TO THE EXTENT YOU DO.AND YOUR OPINION IS DULLY NOTED [SHITTY SPELLER, I WAS TO BUSY GETTING HIGH BACK IN MY SCHOOL DAYS OFF THAT DIRT WEED LOL BUT I STILL GOT THE MUCHIES AND HAD ONE HELL OF A GOOD TIME AND ONLY PAID 25.00 FOR AN OUNCELOL] SO IAM NOT RAINING ON YOUR PARADE, I HAVE BEEN ON THE FRONTLINE OF THIS MOVEMENT FOR 35 YEARS AND UNFORTUNATELY WHAT I AND OTHERS HAVE DONE MAY BE ALL IN VAIN. YOUR DOOR BELLS RINGING, I THINK ITS THE TAX MAN LOL  PS THEY SAY NO ONE HAS EVER DIED FROM THE CONSUMPTION OF MARRIJUNNA? WELL MY FRIEND I LOST A NEPHEW, NOT FROM A CAR CRASH WHILE HIGH OR ANYTHING OF THAT NATURE, HE WAS AT HOME JUST WHERE HE WAS SUPPOSE TO BE AND USING REEFER JST LIKE YOU AND ME EXCEPT HE DID ONE THING WRONG,, NO HE DIDNT ADD BOOZE OR ANYTHING OF THAT NATURE AND NO IT WASNT A BAD BATCH OF REEFER BUT HE DIED, AND THREE OF HIS BEST BUDDIES HAD TO BE RUSHED TO THE ER. JUST  BECAUSE OF THE GOOD OLD POT YOUR GETTING DID THEM IN. IF YOU WANT TO HEAR THE REST OF THE STORY AND ILL SEND YOU LGAL PROOF LET ME KNOW? TRUE..SAD.. WHATS THIS WORLD COMING TOO?ENJOY YOUR BUZZ AND I SINCERIUSLY MEAN THAT AND I MAY BE HEADING THAT WAY WITH MY OLD RIDING BUDDIES FOR A RALLY WITH THE ANGELS,, OLD SCHOOL BOYS, NOT THESE WANTABES.  WE COULD HAVE COFFEE AND A BLUNT,, LATER  'GATOR; THATS MY REAL NAME,,ROUGH CUT GATOR, AND THAT IS ENSCRIBED NICELY ON MY 84 IRONHEAD   WILLIE G

[DesertGuy]

I understand everything you say
I also am a Vet--3 years joined--
Also was a small business owner
Same age probably
On my 61 st cycle and I don't know how many cars
But I don't think like you--I ride modern cycles and when I pay a lot of taxes in bussiness that sort of tells me I made a lot of money
Being on this forum --taking this new miracle drug---and maybe not dying in the next 10 years
I find myself not as angry--get over it-the country is fucked for people our age--quit bitching it does no good
I didn't ask for another pothead to start a bitch session--Looking for another pothead that is a legal user and enjoys using different strains for different aliments
OKAY

[willie g]

I WASNT BITCHING, I WAS GIVING MY OPINION AND I REALLY DONT CARE IF YOU GET WHATEVER YOU GET AND ARE ENJOYING WHAT YOU GET. LIKE I SAID I HAVE BEEN AT THE FRONT OF THIS MOVEMENT FOR YEARS AND LAST YEAR I DID LOOSE SOMEONE DEAR TO ME JUST BECAUSE OF THE LEGAL, HIGH STRAIN OF REEFEER WHICH IS NOW AVAILABLE.SO I GOT TO SEE THE OTHER SIDE OF THIS MOVEMENT AND THE BUYING OF REALESTATE WHICH IS USED STRICTLY FOR GROWING NOT CARING ABOUT THIER NEIGHBORS CHILDREN OR FOLKS THAT DONT BELIEVE IN THE POSITIVE ,GOOD THING  THAT YOU AND I DO.BUT INSTEAD OF LETTING THIS LEGALIZATION BE STRICKLY A GOOD THING, IT HAS TURNED INTO A MONEY MAKING MACHINE WITH PEOPLE GETTING INTO THE BUISNESS AND THIER WHLOE INTENTION IS ABOUT THE BUZZ AND MOSTLY THE CASH. I HAVE A FRIEND WHO WAS AT THE FRONT LINES OF MAKING A STRAIN THAT DOESNT CARRY THE THC HIGH MANY LOOK FOR; HE STARTED DOING IT FOR THE KIDS MOSTLY THAT WERE HAVING SIEZURES AND OTHER SERIOUS AILMENTS THAT HE FOUND HIS STRAIN COULD REALLY HELP AND IS HELPING FOLKS WITH THESE DIPILATATING DISEASES. HE WAS SHUT DOWN 6 TIMES, HE HAS HAD TO PAY SEIRIOUS FINES DURING THIS JOURNEY BUT YEARS OF NOT GIVING UP BECAUSE HE WAS FINALLY DOING GOOD FOR THE SYSTEM, LIKE ME HE COULD HAVE CARED LESS ABOUT ANY POLITICAL BULLSHIT AND THATS WHY HES A 1/% LIKE ME AND BEING A 1% NOT OF THE RICH KIND BUT OF THE SCREW ALL GOVT. AND LEAVE US ALONE KIND. I TOO BEGAN TO TAKE ANOTHER JOURNEY WHICH WAS FOR 25 YEARS FROM BEING A HARDCORE ONE SIDED SONOFABITCH DECIDED TO TAKE AWAY SOME OF THE FRONTS WE WERE USING TO DO OUR ILLEGAL SHIT ON THE SIDE, LIKE TOYS FOR TOTS , FUNDRISERS FOR GOOD CAUSES ETC, WHICH WAS REALLY THE BEST TIME, BEST DAYS I CAN ADMITT NOW WERE DAYS I REALLY FELT GOOD ABOUT,BUT THE NEXT DAY IT WAS SUIT UP AND BACK TO THE GUN PACKING WAR MUNGERS WE BELIEVED IN.I GOT OUT OF MILATARY AND HAD NO PLACE TO GO, I WOULD SCREW UP EVERYTHING I TOUCHED IN SOCIETY SO I REALIZED SOCIETY WAS NO LONGER FOR ME AS WELL AS MANY OF MY COMRADES WHO ARE NOW MOSTLY DEAD OR DOING TIME. SO YA I REMAINDED LOYAL BUT I STEPPED DOWN A LITTLE AND GOT A JOB HELPING MENTALY DISABLED AND PHISICALY DISABLED FOLKS. THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A TEMPORARY THING BUT IT ENDED UP BEING A 25 YEAR GIG, YET I RODE BUT SLOWLY, WHETHER IT BECAME WISDOM OR MY STRONG BELIEF OF THE CREATOR AND ON MY THIRD MARRIAGE[LUCKILY NO CHILDREN TILL THIS MARRIAGE AND I HAVE ONE GIRL. THATS IT BUT WHEN SHE WAS BORN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE WORD LOVE BECAME REAL.HELL MY OLD MAN USE TO LAUGH AND SAY WILLIE ;YOU DONT GO OUT WITH WOMEN YOU MARRY THEM'! HA HA AND THE ONES YOU DONT MARRY YOU MIGHT AS WELL SAY YOU DO BECAUSE YOU SET EM UP AND WHEN THEY FINALLY SAY GET THE FUCK OUT, THATS EXACTLY WHAT YOU DO AND YOU LEAVE EVERYTHING BEHIND FOR THEM ONLY TAKING YOUR FRIGGIN BIKE [WHICH IS REALLY YOUR OLD LADY] YOUR MASSIVE STEREO AND ALL THEM FRRIGIN VYNAL RECORDS OF YOURS IN THOSE APPLE CRATES AND EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE ALWAAYS SAID THEY WERE GREAT WOMEN, YOU NEVER LOOKED BACK EVEN WHEN THEY WERE TRYING TO RECONCILE FINDLY REALIZING YOU WERE NEVER A COMPLETE ASSHOLE""SO YA EACH TIME I BROUGHT A SWEETHEART OVER TO INTRDUCE TO MOSTLY MY OLD MAN HE WOULD TAKE A LIKEING TO THEM, WOULDNT SEE ME FOR MONTHS AND THEN WHEN HE DID I WAS BRIGING ANOTHER SWEETHEART OR A ONE THAT I SAID I WAS MARRYINGLOL THE THIRD ONE I MARRIED HE REALLY GOT IN MY FACE AND SAID WHAT THE FRIG IS YOUR PROBLEM! IM SICK OF THIS SHIT, I WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY BUT WITHOUT FRIGGIN UP THIER LIVES AS WELL AS YOURS!MY SMARTASS COMEBACK WAS 'WELL POPS MAYBE ITS THE HONEYMOONS I GET OFF ON; WHICH BROKE THE ICE AND HE SLAPPED ME ON THE BACK AND WOULD SAY;I ALWAYS SAID TO YOU , I WISH I HAD AND SCREW SOME FRRIGIN BRAINS INTO YOU'LOL AND FINALLY MY UNCLES SAID ;WILLIE BOY, DONT EXPECT NO CASH ON THE NEXT MARRIAGE, YOUVE REACHED YOUR LIMIT;LOL OF COURSE THEY WERE BUSTING MY BALLS BUT HEY THEY WERE RIGHT, SO THE ONLY REASON I STUCK WITH THE THIRD WAS LIKE I SAID,HOLDING LITTLE MOON [MY ONLY CHILD,BEAUTIFUL GIRL] I FINALLY REALLY KNEW WHAT ;LOVE; MENT.AND THAT MY FRIEND WAS THE BEGINNIG OF A WHOLE DIFFERNT JOURNEY. I TURNED IN MY COLORS INKED OUT MY CLUB ON MY ANKLE, SAID THANKS BUT I HAVE TO GO FOR THIS MATES AND ONLY ONE GAVE ME A HASSLE WITH THE !% THING I HAD SWORN TOO BUT IN AND OUT OF THE MILITARY AND ESPECIALLY WITH THESE FELLOW COMMRADES I WAS ALWAYS A GOOD ;SOLDIER; AND US OLD BOYS DEEP DOWN REALLY KNEW THIS BROTHERHOOD WAS BECOMING BULLSHIT, WITH ALL THE YOUNG WANABE IDIOTS WHO BECAME HANGAROUNDS AND WERE PATCHED IN WITHIN 6 MONTHS SOMETIMES, ONCE AGAIN A GOOD THING TURNNED TO SHIT BUT REALLY DEEP DOWN NOT SUCH A GOOD THING. MY CHAPTER IS OUT OF COLORADO, GERMANY, TEXAS AND OF COURSE WHERE I ENDED UP, THE WONDERFUL NY,OF COURSE WE,THEY, HAVE CHAPTERS IN EVERY STATE , COUNTRYS,ETC. AND I STILL GET IN CONTACT WITH SOME OF THE OLD BOYS, SOME STILL PATCHED IN AND OTHERS LIKE ME, THATS WHY I MENTIONED A MAY BECOMIN THAT WAY AND I WAS SERIOUS ABOUT THE BLUNT AND COFFE THING AND THAT INVITATION IS ONE I RARELY EVER GIVE BUT YOUR IN THIS HEP THING LIKE ME. I RODE HARD SO NOW I PAY THE PRISE BUT THATS IN THE CREATORS HANDS, AND PRAYER, FAITH, GIVING BACK IS WHAT IM TRYING TO DO TODAY BUT YA I GET BACK IN THOSE OLD BEHAVIORS ONCE IN AWHILE AND THEY SUCK. SO TODAY I MAKE AMMENDS AS QUICK AS I CAN ,FOR THEM BUT ALSO FOR ME. BECAUSE IF I DONT LIKE MYSELF I MIGHT ASS WELL GRAB MY BIKE MY STEREO[WHICH IVE DOWNSISEDLOL] AND TRUCK DOWN THE ROAD BUT I REALISE NOW ;I WILL LOOK BACK BECAUSE I DO NOW HAVE THIS THING CALLED ;LIFE; AS A GIFT AND NOT JUST ANOTHER DAY, IN 95 I ALMOST LOST MY LEG,SOME ASSHOLE DECIDED TO TAKE A LEFT WHEN IT WASNT APPROPRIATE. 7 SURGERIES LATER I GOT TO KEEP THIS FUSED MESS I CARRY AROUND WHICH AT ONE POINT I BEGGED THEM TO TAKE IT. HELL I COULD HAVE GOT A SPRINGER FRONT END AND WHO KNOWS I MET HAVE BEEN AN OLYIMPION RUNNER,LOL  YA KNOW I USE TO LOVE TO RUN[NOT JUST FROM THE LAW LOL] I MEAN RUN, IT WAS THE NEXT BEST THING TO HAVING YOUR FACE IN THE WIND IN ALL ELEMANTS OF WEATHER AND THE OTHER OF COURSE IS RIDING WHICH MANY WISH I WOULD GIVE UP, BUT THAT WOULD BE LIKE TAKING MY KID AWAY, IVE BEEN RIDING SINCE I WAS 12, SO YOU GET THE IDEA, WELL IN 95 TO GET BACK TO THIS HEP C THING MY OLD MAN HAD THE SAME SYMPTOMS, PAIN IN THE RT SIDE AND WHEN HE LAYED DOWN LIKE ME IT FELT LIKE A GULF BALL IN HIS SIDE. BEING AN X COP, AND FIREFIGHTER WHEN HE RETITERED AT 55 HE TOOK DRINKING TO ANOTHER LEVEL AND THREE PACKS OF SMOKES ADAY ON A GOOD DAY, SO HE WENT TO ONE APPT. FOUND OUT JUST LIKE I DID, HIS LIVER WAS HITING SHITSVILLE AND YES HE HAD A CHANCE JUST LIKE YOU AND ME BUT THE BOOZE ENDED UP BEING THE WINNER AND THE SMOKES NEVER STOPPED. WHEN IN THE END HE DID GIVE A SHIT WE MADE A TRIP TO ROCHESTER TOGETHER AND THEY OPENED HIM UP, CLOSED HIM UP AND SAID SIR YOU HAVE 6 MONTHS TO LIVE. HE DIED 6 MONTHS 3 DAYS LATER, HE HAD JUST RECIEVED HIS FIRST SOCIAL SECURITY CHECK A WEE K BEFORE.I HAVE THREE GRAND CHILDREN NOW, 3AND A HALF  TWO AND A HALF AND A BOY THAT JUST TURNED 1 ,SHOOT, I THOUGHT MY DAUGHTER WANTED TO HAVE HER OWN DAY CARE CENTERLOL SHE SAID I WANT KIDS BECAUSE I NEVER HAD A BROTHER OR SISTER, JUST DOGS BIRDS AND RABBITS,, WHAT A BEAUTY..

[HepC53]

I smoked back in the day, did a lot of things but for years haven't had a desire.  But now that I'm am so sick I wish I was back in my home state of Washington and not in this redneck Indiana.  I truly believe that I could benefit.  My sis has crones and thanks to her green card she has been able to cut back on a handful of pills.  I'm a believer!

[DesertGuy]

This is what I wanted to hear--getting rid of the pills. Myself I do not shop strain specific --but I love to talk to other patients about their aliments, and why they are doing pot. Great stories really.  Me, I am legal because of intractable vomiting and nausea. Well documented by two doctors. On the N.M. list for conditions. Legal within 6 weeks. And it does work for nausea--ask any cancer patient that uses.

[HepC53]

Well alcohol is legal, highly addictive and killing folks livers.  I have heard if people quitting their treatment because it messes with their drinking.  This Hep is currently being called "A Boomer epidemic", read that in AARP.  I only learned of my Hep C early June, just began treatment, on my second week.  In March I was diagnosed with Colitis, you're seriously afraid to eat, I'm managing though.  Yea I'm nauseas and more but the demoralization, hair loss, anxiety and feeling out of control are a lot to cope with.  I don't think I'm eligible for medical use but seriously it is advised that if depression gets overwhelming you Doctor can prescribe an antidepressant.

[Forest dweller]

Hi desert guy..
I live n Canada, and have just applied for my medical marijuana license!!
Hope they give it to me... I've been using a mild opiate for pain for about 10 years, and now I'm almost off it.. Thought I'd quit while on Harvoni.  But I know the joint pain I've had will be back soon, so I'm going to try the oil on joints...

I don't mind it being gov. Controlled or taxed .  It's a good way to make money for other social programs etc.. I think gas should be outrageously taxed too!,
By the way, I'm a very low income person , and never bitch about the cost of stinky gasoline!!
