3 hours 29 min ago
The Daily Sentinel, 08 Mar 2010 - Some people in Colorado, including Colorado Attorney General John Suthers, want the state Legislature to stuff the medical marijuana genie back in the hookah.

US CO: Youth Factor Heats Up Medical Marijuana Debate

3 hours 29 min ago
Denver Post, 08 Mar 2010 - The divisions between the pro- and anti-marijuana crowds at the state House Judiciary Committee meeting were already clear last week when the young man who described himself as a recovering heroin addict approached the microphone. As the man spoke about marijuana use leading kids to harder drugs and fears that medical marijuana from dispensaries would make it into teenage hands, the lines became even clearer.

Dear District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis,

I sincerely appreciate your service to the City and County of San Diego and your mission to remove dangerous criminals from the streets.

However, I feel you have grossly misappropriated taxpayer funds and resources in your prosecution of legal cannabis patients and dispensaries, particularly in the case of United States Naval Veteran Eugene Davidovich.

Please consider the infrastructure, schools, and services that fall by the wayside in your pursuit to undermine state law.

Sincerely,

XXXXX

US NC: Medical Marijuana Advocates Meet

Tue, 03/09/2010 - 10:37
Charlotte Observer, 03 Mar 2010 - Hobbled by a degenerative back disease and arthritis, there were days when Perry Parks was in near constant pain. He tried Vioxx, epidural steroids and other drugs, but he said nothing seemed to work. Then the Vietnam veteran from Rockingham turned to marijuana. "The results were overwhelming," says Parks, 67. "I now live almost pain free." Tonight Parks will share his story at a town hall meeting at UNC Charlotte hosted by state Rep. Nick Mackey of Mecklenburg County. "The evidence that it benefits patients is pretty much unrefuted," Mackey said Wednesday.

Afternoon Vote on New Medical Marijuana Dispensary Ban Coming Up at Tuesday City Coun

Tue, 03/09/2010 - 10:07
Backing the "Marijuana as Menace" mentality of the Planning Department, Planning Commission, and prior City Council votes, city staff recommends voting for a total ban on any new medical marijuana dispensaries, giving Greenway and Limekiln, the existing two clubs a monopoly status. There is no examination of either club's prices, nor of complaints against the club by low-income customers who have been unsatisfied or turned away. Marijuana clubs are treated as some sort of dangerous hot potato, more lethal than alcohol or tobacco outlets or pharmacies-which vend far more lethal wares.
