Ugh. What terrible writing.
-
This isn't really on topic, but did anyone notice the dispensary that's featured on their photo is called The Green Camel? Which is obviously the SR "logo"
Is a green camel a popular symbol in drug culture that I've managed to miss over the years?
-
Suuuucks!
-
danggg.. good thing i saw new weed vendors pop up on SR today too !
keep it movin yall !

Lol, the camel it refers to there is the camel brand of cigarettes and tobacco. So basically its stating they`re competitors of the tobacco industry.
The camel is not the SR logo.. if you studied history you would know that the 'Silkroad' was a almost global trade network many thousands of years ago that started in China.
The camel of the SR logo has a rider on it, a trader of Middle eastern or African/Egyptian origin, you can still see such traders in those parts of the world today.
Thats about it.

What a great way to make pot prices skyrocket for people who use this as a medicine
-
that shit sucks. and why only LA? where is everyone going to get their medicine at now? fuck that shit man.
-
And this is one of MANY reason's, besides not knowing the basic facts about the drugs her agency regulates, why Leonhart shouldn't be running the DEA ::)
-
offtopic but don't you think it's funny that the DEA is going to all the trouble to stop weed at the border and its distribution while people just go to the store and buy some legally anyways. lol
-
Quite frankly, the DEA should be defunded completely, dispensary raids are such a flagrantly wasteful expenditure. So they're going against the will of the taxpayers while spending taxpayer money to raid medical dispensaries and seize property for forfeiture to the DEA. That, my friends, is laundering money in its' essence.

+1 Thanks for dropping some much needed knowledge on some folks around heyuh. :P
Haha... and for the DEA.. well, blah.
Obama swore before he was elected that HE WOULD not mess with people doing it legally in legal states... and now that it's almost "re-election" time.. he is gonna push hard to fuck with all of the Medi states... but YET he does not understand this is going to make his "fellow votes" definitely not vote for him this time around.
Everyone is growing tired of the bullshit.. and I, for one, am ready to see the puppets leave the government and give us a President that will live for them and live for us. Make us right. Make this right.
I am tired of living bound by chains.. with the ridicule of another man and/or woman.
We need to be free'd.

That person is not Romney. That happens, shit will be even worse.

I talked to a lot of clinic owners out here and they all seem pretty confident, I don't know if their confidence is a good thing or a bad thing but they're really not afraid of this "shutdown."

The main concern imo would be that everyone's okay, I've heard stories of raids where random customers and employees have had shotguns to their face and have had to seek out therapy just so they could sleep :-\
-
why you americans bitching so badly, come to the uk. our street weed had fucking glass in it for a year!
' a mom and pop pot shop'
try saying that when your blazed...
-
America sucks.
-
Who is bitching? We're talking on a thread... about topics. That's what they are here for.
And that's why we won't move to Europe.. glass in your bud? Lol.. wow. GTFO.
Anywho.. YAH. I don't doubt the confidence.. like I said.. it's probably just a push for Obama's BS Campaign.
But I, for one, who gets his stuff from the west coast... haha. It worries me! :(
And uhm... Obama won't be re-elected.. so we might as well start welcoming Romney.
Welcome to the End of Days. Martial Law. Concentration Camps. Q.Q

fema camps here we come : im da terminator 8)

This is awful. I feel terrible for the small percentage who uses cannabis for extremely serious medical issues like cancer, etc. I hope they're still able to get their medicine.
-
A buddy of mine was telling me that they are only trying to shut down the Shops that sell to non-patients.
Who knows what the Obama - Leonhart Administration is doing.
-
I've lived in a non medical state all of my life. Its always been illegal for us to have pot. Except for opiates, cannabis is the ONLY thing that helps with my chronic pain. It takes my mind off it for a little while so I can be happy and productive. Until I came onto the SR, I wasn't able to get real medicinal grade stuff. Some of the stuff we had was close (one good thing about being a pipeline state) but nothing compared to the wares around here. So I can relate to what those poor people out there losing their medicine that they worked and fought so hard for. It's not right. I also think the DEA should be shut down and people should be allowed to have the meds they need.
-
Yah.
It will all work out.
No one is going to lose their medicine. God forbid Obama or his wife need it.
-
Leonhart is a fucking terrible person, DEA administrator, and is not fit to lead an organization when she knows NOTHING of the shit her job requires. Anyone see her dodge the marijuana questions by Polis ::)?

YES! She is fucking stupid. "Is heroin worse than Weed for you?"
"I believe all drugs are bad."
PEWPEW.

Yeah I saw that too, she`s pretty stubborn and firm when it comes to replies.
-
"all *illegal drugs are bad"
So wait
Legal drugs aren't? ???
-
Can't blame her for loving RC's.
-
RC's are illegal in the US, new bill was just signed I believe? Hence why a lot of clearnet RC vendors won't sell to the US anymore
-
Haha, nice.
I don't fuck with RC's.. never have never will. :)
-
What are these RC's ? Reacational Cookies ? lol

Depends what clique you're in mayn, there are certain people on this board who would pull a knife for even suggesting that nbomes aren't the crystalline ejaculate of a greater deity
-
WOW, i wont lie, i thought i wanted to try it, then i hear they get u tight chest pains, and if u let your mind run wild, you can scare yourself thinking irrationally
-
I like them :)
& just be in a chill state of mind and you'll be fine lol....I got not chest pains
-
RESEARCH CHEMICALS.
FUCK THAT BATH SALT BS.
@Metaphoe
Bruce Almighty is on. :)
LSD is THE chemical.
-
Not all Rc's were made illegal, just a lot of em.
How can ignorance persevere in a job where it's your obligation to get the facts? DEA gargle my dogs balls

"What if God were one of us?" That's not Alanis Morisette.
Check out "Jagged Little Pill" :P:P

Waiting on my Bubblegum and Phish head OG.

Citizens of California need to be asking for the evidence base to support the decision as this sounds like an emotional / philosophical reaction. Is there any evidence to support this measure?
-
It's in the news. It's Obama trying to push for his re-election. He is a Power Monger.
-
Wellllll....
I hope this means a few hundred shops will open on the Road

*Update*
So I'm keeping touch with several clinic owners and now they're worried. A lot of them are already selling out whatever is left of their stock because they have 45 days to shutdown or be raided/fined. I believe only ~175 shops are going to be left maybe even less but this is really bad news for people that are not even local to central LA.
So far from what I understand the reason behind this turnaround is because of the elections coming up, the mayor decided to switch stances from pro-mmj to against it so that he can easily get more votes, that goddamn rat bastard :'( We would need at least 35,000 signatures to overturn the decision but not a lot of patients are confident in even getting close to that amount. Let's all hope for the best because there's not much else we can do.
-
Look on the bright side atleast Obama is cutting funds to police departments specializing in finding illegal grow ops.
Which ofc means there will be more domestic crops and the need for importing shitty weed will go down.
I would rather grow illegally then be regulated by the government any day like it currently is for medical growers.

Obama is going against his word for MMJ as well.
I have stated all of the above.. and I did not post this thread for shits and giggles.
It is the truth.
