Who are these cops who will enter a house in this way for this reason? Surely they must be told they are raiding a cancer patients house, for medical marijuana usage, right? Who in their right mind would agree to do it this way?

Aspergillus? More people die from aspirin OD's. This is just another scare tactic. You need to check with oncologists and docs who specialize in AIDS and ARC and recommend the plant to their patients.

This bill it TERRIBLE, as it stands and the ACLU knows that and should NOT be stating that it's better, cuz it makes access to docs and meds MUCH more difficult. It would essentially remove all patients whose own doctor won't write a rec from the MMJ roles, and we would once again (or shall I say still) be living in fear of being arrested for trying to stay alive.

The ACLU has a power-hungry politician heading things in our state, who obviously could care less about the many patients who would suffer greatly when this bill passes. Her public outcry should be heard across the state, and yet she writes a press release only for the Stranger. She has the ability to put more pressure on legislators, and to make her stance much more public. It seems to me she is only serving her own personal interests for political gains. I would put money that she runs for office in the next couple of years.

I am a patient and think the aclu is fluffing 5073 up because they represent the canna industry. Big whoop if you took a couple mmj cases!!! Its you job right... Just like the cops will create more grey area out of your compromised bill. You all are going to monopolize the permits and drive patients to the streets. Wake up patients these people are selling out 69.51. This bill doesn't represent stakeholders but a kabal who are setting themselves in line for mmj industry to come.

Pharmer... You didn't read the amendments. It says that the STATE is responsible for producing ALL Medical Marijuana. That patients are no longer allowed to grow for even themselves, and it requires that each county have only 1 dispensary, and that that dispensary only acquire it from the state "Marijuana Factory" KILL THIS BILL!
