Dispensaries

- Start date
Back on topic about dispensaries they do need to make a comeback but after talkin with some friends and associates yesterday I found out there's still a good 10 or so operating around town some moved locations and are by customer referral only or not accepting new patients. And also operating discreet this Time not putting signs up and also not posting on weed maps or if there on weedmaps there # has changed and location so u would have to b a former loyal customer to find em or get ahold of em or brought in by a customer

I think they need to reconcile the contradiction that exists between what the Nevada Constitution says and what Nevada's Medical Marijuana Law says. Until that changes everything is sort of a mute point. The law might be stupid but it's still the law. I apologize if my way of looking at things is too legal for you - it's the way I see it.
However u wish to look at it is fine with me but laws don't change on there own I give major props to these dispensary owners that don't give a shit about whT the law says they realize it's wrong so they step up an push the bouderies if they don't we will never see a "legal" dispensary in Nevada. If u look into your mmj history youll c that's how other states Cali for example started laws like sb420 . U have to break push and bend laws to get laws changed.when the state realize they can't win and that they implemented an unconstitutional law they will eventually give in like Califirnia. Take alcohol prohibition for example if it wasn't for the rum runners alcohol would still be illegal today. Any one willing to stand up for what's right and take chances with the law their life and jail time should b looked at as heroes in the mmj community in Nevada if u aren't on there side thats sad.....

Rum-runners? Nope. Lawyers.
Here's some more of the article u decided to leave out....
Climaxing decades of gathering hostility toward saloons and moral outrage over the general degeneracy and debauchery said to be flowing from bottles and kegs, the Constitution of the United States had been amended, effective 1920, to prohibit the manufacture and sale of "intoxicating liquors." The Volstead Act, the federal statute implementing the prohibition amendment, included beer in that category. At first, prohibition was cheered by its victorious supporters, and generally tolerated by others. But before long, unmistakable grumbling was heard in the cities. To meet the barely interrupted demand for alcohol, there sprang up bathtub ginworks and basement stills, discreet illegal supply networks, and secret, illegal bars called speakeasies.
Commerce in alcohol plunged underground, and soon fell under the control of thugs and gangsters. Violence often settled commercial differences as suppliers and distributors were denied the services of lawyers, insurance companies, and the civil courts. On the local level, widespread disobedience of the prohibition laws by otherwise law-abiding citizens produced numerous arrests. Courts were badly clogged, in large part because nearly all defendants demanded jury trials, confident that a jury of their peers would view their plight with sympathy.
U don't think the underground saloons or rum runners played a part in getting the law changed? They opened peoples eyes that the laws were wrong that's what gets the ball rolling. Of course lawyers and politicians play apart in any law being changed they handle the legal aspects the rum runners or saloon owners or the former law abiding citizens turned dispensary owners in our case is what gets unconstitutional laws looked at. Thanks for the article u proved my point u can copy paste as u like to try an make yourself sound correct but u r sounding a lil ignorant to me

the dispensaries that are still operating are no different than the dudes i know slanging sacks to people they work with or whatever...the way Nevada LE looks at it is a criminal enterprise...if they get raided they deserve what they have coming.

what that they deserve it?? they do!! plain and simple...they arent being discreet, and they arent helping the cause..they need to chill the fuck out and close their doors until there is some responsible legislation..until then the dispensaries still operating will give cops and politicians more of a reason to keep it illegal.
its like the dealer that stands on a corner and mutters "coke, pills, chronic" as you walk by...those fuckers deserve to get busted too...you need to be discreet in this business..especially because its not tolerated.

Nv mmj patients need a SAFE place to get there Meds and they need it NOW these dispensary owners are heroes to nv mmj patients and if u r a nv patient and u don't feel the same turn in your card and give up marijuana because u r a disgrace to our community. BOTTOM LINE........

dude. i was a dispensary owner...these dispensaries are doing NOTHING for the cause..they arent in it for the patient...they are in it for the money..and i was born and raised in this town, and ive never had a problem with "safe" access to pot. i know 5 guys right now that would be more than happy to deliver s variety of shit..until there is clear legislation the dispensaries operating are fuckin it up for safe access. plain and simple...they give LE a reason to address the "pot problem" in vegas, because they cant follow simple rules..

Bottom line? I think it's cute how you think you have the authority to speak for a whole community. Is it really necessary to resort to personal attacks against those that disagree with you?
