Great! So let's now allow marijuana dispensaries to send a poor signal to the very same youth the effort was meant to protect!

Excellent!! Very important work and kudos to those who worked so hard on it. Its all possible because tobacco is legally regulated. I'd hate to think how many kids could get a pack of smokes if it were as easy to get as other things are on the unregulated black market.

Regarding medical cannabis dispensaries...Is providing medicine for sick people a bad message to send to kids?

To: Just Say No
How is providing safe, affordable and secure access to medicine for sick patients a poor signal to our youth?
Your poor attempt at humor is appalling. Medical Cannabis Dispensing Collectives will provide medicine to qualified patients only. If the Police send in an explorer scout or anyone with out proper doctors recommendation they will be asked to leave. There will be no signage for the MCDC's. Unlike the "Camel Joe" ads and other youth driven advertising I see on all Tobacco resellers. Compassionate Use. Education.
Thanks for your witty reply in advance!

"Just Say No", your statement shows a tremendous lack of empathy for sick people who are relieved by medical MJ. The reality is that medical MJ is much less harmful than many of the drugs that the pharmaceutical companies push for big profit. Do you work for a drug company, or are you just ignorant and naive? Seriously, it's called empathy - get some.

Tobacco murders 450,000 Americans every year.
Marijuana has never murdered anyone in the world since the beginning of its existence and helps perhaps millions of Americans every year.
When big business and our government sleep together, we are lied to and we die in pain.
