Thinking of giving up my card

Wasn't it decided in court in California a few years back that once you were issued a rec (card), there was no law saying you needed to cough up the money for a new one, ever?

I think all people should be free to buy/smoke/grow any weed they want to, when and where they want to, from whomever they want.
That cop that did that to your friend needs a baseball bat upside his tyrannical head.
That sucks dude.
My drivers liscence was taken from me 5 years ago for ChiSupp. Ive driven everyday, all day since.
If I get pulled over, I know Im going downtown and the car is getting towed. Thats why I always smoke a fattie whenever Im in the car driving. If Im gonna get arrested anyways... may as well be stoned for the hour Im there before posting 50 dollars bail.

So for 5 years.. I've smoked a fattie 2x a day when I drive without a liscence, and I could care less. Never got pulled over yet. As long as you drive right and only hit the joint when there are no cars driving by you its aaaalllll good.

I would keep it.......I don't think anyone can afford a felony. Job wise. Thats a big game changer. But take a stance as don't drive impaired period.

A Job? LMFAO! Whats that? Is there really stability in any job anyone has ever had? NO! Thats why Im forced to grow. Atleast thats consistant. Imagine...Marijuana being more stable then our economy. LMFAO again!

Does Marijuana really impair you enough that a driver/smoker is more likely to get into an accident? NO! If they drive horribly before smoking they are gonna drive horribly after smoking too. LOL. Im a great driver and Ive had cops behind me for 3 miles while the car was full of weed smoke. I just roll up the windows so they cant smell it behind me.

Before I lost my liscence... I got pulled over and searched in a town I dont live in. The pigs found 1 top cola of BCBD Purps and 1 top cola of Great White Shark in 2 different glass jars and I know they took it for themselves, let me go, and found the plant I had in the woods.
The farmer called the cops cuz I left my car on the side of the road....Learned my leason. Big NO-NO. That was 7 years ago. They found the plant too and uprooted it. Never heard a thing about it. They even took my 12" double edged knife that was razor sharp and worth 120 bucks.

I don't know anything about that, but this is about Nevada, next state over, yet nothing like.

I don't have my state ID card (MMPA), and won't get it unless the law absolutely compels me to do so.

If it wasnt personal information I would take a pic of my card right and post it. I sent in my recommendation and request to join the program to Carson City, they sent me back a letter telling me I was accepted roughly 3 weeks later and that my med card would be in the mail 7-14 days before I got it. When my card arrived via mail there was an IDENTICAL card to my license with an extra stamp on it. I was told by the DMV (being this is the administration that sent the card) that my drivers license is my medical card that the extra stamp attached to it represents my registry in to the program. Every med patient I know here who drives has the same type of license I do.

Here is a write up on attaining the Nevada card:
You must pay the fifty dollars in a one-time payment-the Nevada State Health Division does not accept installment payments. You may not pay with a credit card, either. If you wish to pay the fifty dollars in cash, you must do so in person at the William Street address in Carson City.

Once you receive your application in the mail, you and your physician must follow the instructions very carefully. If you don't have a caregiver, write "none" in the space provided.

After you complete the application, be sure to make a copy for your own records. Once you mail back your completed application, you can expect to hear within thirty (30) days whether you've been approved or denied. If you are approved, arrangements will be made to give you a Registry Identification Card, which looks like a drivers license and is your proof of membership in the Nevada Medical Marijuana Program.

Yes, here in Nevada your med card IS your drivers license. Your license just gets an extra seal on it.

duder once approved you'll recieve a peice of paper from the state telling you to go to your local dmv to have picture taken and mmj id card issued


{which looks like a drivers license and is your proof of membership in the Nevada Medical Marijuana Program}
but isnt your drivers lisense

1 ID says drivers lisense
1 ID says medical marjuana patient
and the numbers issued on the cards are different i renew mine next month

From the OFFICIAL MMJ Nevada Fact Page:

"The cost to register in the medical marijuana program is $150.00. There is a cost for fingerprinting,payable when you have the prints done. The cost can range from $4 - $20. There is also a charge to have the registry card made, payable to DMV at the time the card is made. The cost for this ranges from $11 - $22."

I'm just correcting blatantly incorrect information about the Nevada Medical Marijuana Program. No one forces you to join the program. If you don't like it, than don't join. :biggrin:

i let mine go 2 years ago, as i see it they target med card growers, especialy if you have a waiver to go more plants, first thing they do is check your electric bill,then stake out your house and watch you, the dea and metro have a combined task force looking for grow houses. henderson seems to be really hot. alot of bust, one friend was followed home from the grow store and raided the next day. weather what there doing is legal or not they dont give a shit, as maj said having it can save your ass from doing time but it also seems to throw a red flag up also. damned if you do and damned if you dont

Nevada is a state that ALWAYS scared the fuck outta me for carrying, holding or smoking weed I remember a group of us went to LV for a " get away and party" weekend....one dude got hooked up with this chick , next thing we know all our cellies are blowing up cause he got caught smoking a "j" with this chick outside a casino and LEO ( pr more likely casino security tipped off LEO) popped them, what a bitch it was to get him out.....screw that! I go to Lake Tahoe now, much more chill IMHO.

I haven't heard of anyone, trying to get a 'retro-active' mmj rec. And if they already have one, it is unlikely you will be arrested.

However, if you piss off leo:bigeye:..or, he/she had a bad night before; anything can happen. :shucks: jpt

ya, finger printing, fuck that. It seems a lot easier to get busted if your in a registration like that. nobody will ever know about your grow if you do your job right as a grower. 99 percent of busts are from rats. ex-spouses, nosy neighbors, etc. seems if you just keep your shit tight and be observant to who is watching you then you will be ok more than likely. I grew in texas for a decade and exercised extreme secrecy. I still do. It kinda sucks sometimes, but a slip up is not really acceptable in this line of work.
