For those who don't know

Medical marijuana = Ordinary weed grown by a pharmaceutical mega corporation with some extra carcinogenic nasties thrown in, patented and sold at a higher price than the normal stuff to help pay for the bribes they paid to all the US senators to allow it

Well isn't that better than weed smuggled by ruthless hardcore criminals?
And anyway, can you not grow your own, under licence, in the States?

You won't be able to. They are all secretly owned by the CIA. They do grow their own, but they add mind controlling chemicals that make you want to eat biscuits.

Not just any old biscuit either. Ones made in labs by Al Kaida, who are secretly funded by M15, who are a branch of the New World Order.

I was out for pints last week with Jim Corr & Daegerty and they explained the whole thing to me. They made me take the battery out of my mobile phone too, just in case the aliens were listening in from their secret base which is located somewhere in Carlow.

After I smoked my last batch of weed, I seriously considered getting a tinfoil hat so the Greys couldn't locate me and abduct me.

It should be called Gheys Anatomy, because it's well gay.

i dont normally smoke that stuff but was in amsterdam a few years ago and when in rome etc.
went into a coffee shop, smoked a few reefers and then went outside. I had no grasp how strong the stuff was.
Amsterdam is a dangerous fcuking city when youre off your head, those fecking bicycles seemed to be chasing me through the streets no matter where i went.
I nearly threw myself in front of a tram just to escape them!
I can see now why Anne Frank hid in the fecking attic!

It wasn't the Germans who were looking for Jews. It wasn't the fear of death that made her hide in an attic. It was stoner's paranoia.

Hell, she wasn't even really Jewish.

A scene in an Amsterdam café at 11am;
Dude: I'll have an quarter of your strongest stuff.
Café dude: How about you try a nice sativa for the morning. Get you alive and thinking. And some to tea to go with it.
Dude: I want the strongest skunk you got.
Café dude: :Sigh: There's weed there's your bib and there's your high chair.

the same company as the OPs link, or maybe cnbc did a program called 'marijuana inc' that shows where quite a lot of the medical weed is grown. It is mostly co-ops and local grows, with high quality, clean green. It's far from the picture you describe, unless you know of other sources? or can describe which nasties are thrown in?

I'm not surprised it's becoming big business, especially in California where it is more or less legal due to doctors prescribing it for any old ailment. It's a good system for them I think; because it's not legal, the government do not have to take the same amount of responsibility and do not get the liveline crowd up in arms about legalizing the evil drugz. I don't think we have enough lazy/corrupt doctors for it to work here though..
