It really depends on the dispensary. Some will take an appt to look at your meds no matter what, but theres a few where you need a membership to get past the secretary. Either way it's not really a big deal, and staying away from dispensaries because your are afraid of the feds is stupid silly. For example The People's Choice in Ann Arbor has over 1700 members, and they are just one dispensary of many in Ann Arbor. Do you really think the DEA is going to come in the middle of the night round up the probably near 10,000 dispensary members in Washtenaw county in the middle of the night? America is in bad shape but we're not quite there yet, this isn't Nazi Germany. I highly doubt they are going to start rounding up all the potheads in the middle of the night and send us all off to concentration camps. There's safety in numbers, please stop buying into the fearmongering.
