new Cali med laws for dummies - or why you are done growing next year

[jump /injack]

The Democrats in California have ruined everything in the State, once the 7th largest economy in the World but now fast becoming a shit hole like Socialist Venezuela where they are using printed money for toilet paper. People are leaving the State by the thousands because of what the Democrats are doing, now this, isn't this enough to work against anyone and everyone who thought up this mind boggling piece of crap? The Democrats are immersing you in codes, restrictions and laws to wipe you out for their buddies in big business in big pharmaceuticals and NAFTA. Wait until Mexican cannabis is brought in, you'll see price drops of 65%, the huge Hydro grows in Mexico now growing tomatoes will switch to cannabis and wipe out all the States now growing. You will not be able to compete with Mexican grows, they use slave labor, they will wipe you out with labor costs. The fucking Democrats really stink. When the Democrats us all of the OPM or other peoples money like they have in Venezuela you will have the equivalent here in the United States, California and all other Democrat States are going bankrupt except for the politicians. We need a list of those in Sacramento the proposed these laws, rules and regulations so that they can be voted out of office.

Wow. Just a whole mess of you don't know what the fuck.

Meh, look on the bright side, you really don't have very long to complain with life being so short and all. But I guess if you have children and grandchildren, you might have reason to care.

Look on the bright side- the county ordinances where I live will be changed shortly, June 8th, we'll be able to grow 36 plants outside on 5-10 acres -- and, in two years when they even start thinking about putting this whole mad permitting scheme into place, we'll all have more practice dealing with the bureaucracy and, running farms that produce gargantuan amounts of meds, despite the plant count restrictions. We'll simply kill it when the permits come into place and we're bumped up to being able to grow 1 acre of cannabis---while paying %50 taxes, putting our money in the banks, using that money to to invest wisely and, above board in legitimate businesses like green energy. Those who persevere will make A LOT of money and, we'll change the world on a massive scale because money is an instrument of change. Alright, old son?

Conditional permits are being granted by at least one city here in Sonoma Co. Hopefully the county will follow its lead. The negative is that the permits, people and places are all being publicly announced so everyone knows where it is, and who is involved. I am all for transparency in our industry but that seems a little premature to me.

Hell we don't even know what is legal, how much and where anymore. In my county they haven't updated their medical cannabis law on their website for over a year. They change the law every supervisors meeting.
I think you're on to something stoned-trout. As well, with as much being grow in all types of neighborhoods now most of the growers neighbors thinking it is becoming legal will quit snitching on the next door people. Thus grow on.....

 

[stoned-trout]

I wont ever be done growing, I will just be illegal again....yeehaw...never lost any sleep before...

Merced County deputies raid 13 marijuana cultivation sites, medical dispensary

Raids in the last two weeks by the Merced County Sheriff’s Department have busted several marijuana operations in the county, including a medical marijuana dispensary in Atwater on Friday, officials said.

During two days of raids spanning the last 10 days, Sgt. Ray Framstad said the sheriff’s office eradicated 13 marijuana grow sites, confiscated 12,197 plants and recovered 205 pounds of processed marijuana.

Investigators also recovered one assault rifle, Framstad said.

One raid Friday yielded up to 5,700 confiscated marijuana plants on the 16000 block of Moraga Road in the Los Banos area, Framstad said.

Numerous arrests were made and citations issued, Framstad said. Reports are being forwarded to the Merced County District Attorney’s Office to file charges.

Another raid Friday shut down the Goodfellas Medical Collective Clinic at 3600 Atwater Road in Atwater.

About $20,000 worth of concentrated marijuana, oils, edibles and other forms were confiscated, Framstad said, adding that more than 60 plants were also seized.

The owner of the establishment was cited for operating a medical marijuana dispensary without a proper license, Framstad said, adding the clinic was operating under a holistic health license.

Framstad noted that the county doesn’t allow medical marijuana dispensaries at all.

“We’ve got regulations in place for people to legally grow medical marijuana,” Sheriff Vern Warnke said of the raids. “Yet folks out there still feel compelled to violate the rules.”

Paul Canto, who identified himself as the owner of Goodfellas, said the sheriff’s deputies who confiscated his product were polite and respectful during the raid. But he felt he did everything necessary to follow the law.

“I’m registered with the State of California and all my business was in order,” he said, adding that he made it clear that his business involved medicinal marijuana sales.

Canto, who said he uses marijuana medicinally, claims he has been helping patients heal through marijuana, including some with cancer who don’t have too long to live.

Warnke shot down the argument that what he called “snake oil” could be of any medicinal use, equating medicinal marijuana vendors to the fake-medicine dealers of old who would sell alcohol rebranded as medicine.

However, Warnke said he understands that Merced County voters were barely in favor of Prop 64.

Warnke and Framstad said the main goal of the raids is to inform and educate growers about the law concerning marijuana cultivation.

Those laws include allowing up to 12 plants to be grown at one time for personal medical use. Six plants are allowed for recreational use.
However, under no circumstances can marijuana be grown for the intent to sell.

Warnke said his office is planning more raids on targeted sites in the near future.

The Merced County Board of Supervisors mulled adjusting policies on recreational and medicinal marijuana Tuesday to pave the way for cultivation centers and dispensaries following the state passage of Prop 64, which also passed in the county with 51.48 percent of voters.

During that meeting, Warnke told the board, “I want you to know that, as your sheriff, I don’t want it, and I’ll do everything I can to protect the ag industry against this.”

"Protect the ag industry against this." ???

 

[Picarus]

Sounds like a one man wrecking crew taking his opinion of the law into his own hands. Bummer for them. Not all counties and cities are open to inviting cannabis in, but the sheriff and his personal biased shouldn't be tolerated.

 

[shaggyballs]

The best thing about legalization of cannabis is no one is being jailed over a plant!

Ooops......I guess I was wrong.......why did we want to legalize cannabis anyway?
Oh, yea to line the pockets of the rich! I may be wrong with this statement also.
Anyway isn't legal cannabis the bee's knees?
