Imo, there are far more deserving activist that don't whore themselves out to the media. The true activists don't need fame or fortune. The Emories are small fish when it comes to true activist who stood by patients when they needed help. Remember the Emories never fought for med use, they always positioned themselves towards rec.
Itsme.
Sometimes activism needs to be more then just helping people who need it, sometimes it takes pushing up against the law.....I think the point of marc is that he was paying taxes and running a legit business, it was clean, friendly, safe, a good model.
I think you are looking at what he was caught with and saying well he is all about the money, but I argue and say maybe it is just simply that he was operating in a market that can facilitate that kind of sales. Fact is he took 250,000 off the streets that otherwise would of went to the gangs. Marc has always been about making money, but he has also been about spending it.
as for them going for rec over med, you could argue that if rec med is not a problem, I think they are trying to say that having restrictions on this plant at all is not good be it rec or med.
on a side not 300 pounds is not a lot of cannabis from what I am being told by people in the city, guys are moving 100's of pounds a week.
Fact remains that people can chose from an LP or a club like marcs and they seem to be choosing the later.
Lets face it LPs are not offering what the market wants on more then one level.
Strains, personal service, not growing the strains they do offer well. Then there is the whole pesticides from LP's scandal and they fact that said LPs did an "internal investigation" and could not determine how the stuff got on site let alone on plants? wtf??? So you are telling me plant ninjas just show up at night and can walk right into the grow passed the cameras???? LOL what a joke. Lets face it LPs do not offer a better product at this point and the true Cannabis users know this, the only people that are falling for it are new users, and the funny thing about the new users is they are literally created by LPs lobbying Dr's to push Cannabis onto retired folk(in other words they are like drug pushers in a high school yard trying to get people hooked on their product)
Anyways sorry for the rant but I just do not feel marc is in the wrong. I applaud him and jody, as for marc and jail he will not get sentenced and this is just part of doing business for him, he wanted to get arrested so he can fight this in court.
.......oh..my mistake...just drunk again....
