Just know that shit is going down in Mendocino County this year. Laws are changing, things are getting tighter, and I have heard that there are going to be checkpoints leaving the county during the harvest season. Most of the state lets you grow 6 plants, but some counties allow more. Be selective where you move to, and stay up with local laws.

Hate to break it to you but there is NO WHERE in the USA where MJ is completely legal. According to federal law... it is still an illegal substance and the DEA has been busy raiding what the State considers legal dispensaries.

States rights vs. Fed.... it was all decided way back in the war of Northern Aggression.

I've been considering moving to California also, just can't decide on what city, I live currently in a southeastern backwards bible belt state and not only that but have chronic neck,back,hip, knee pain with degenerative disc disease, I have documented history of being in pain clinics with CT Scan,M.R.I., XRAYS for proof, and have been taking schedule II opiate pain meds for nearly 7 years and my liver has elevated enzymes from them, I also take cortisone injections to minimize my joint pain, not to mention getting T-boned 2+ years ago and having my right orbital and mandable (eye socket and upper jaw bone) cracked from hitting the windshield with CT Scan to prove that as well, so I have more than enough documentation to get a medical-pot recommendation, but heres something that I'm concerned with...I still work and sometimes have to piss in a cup for random testing, no problem currently because of legitimately prescribed meds, BUT ...if I lived in California and were a medical-pot card holder, is there or would there be any protection for me taking pre-employment or random drug tests ? I read something a few months back that was some law bill trying to get passed in California protecting authorized medical-pot users for employment drug tests just like any regular employee currently has protection from drug tests if they happen to be on some "legally prescribed" opiate pain meds. I would see no sense in coming all the way out to California to live and then not being able to get or keep a job because my urine tested positive for Cannabis use even when I would be a medical-pot cardholder....does anyone know if any employment protections exist for medical-pot cardholders in California when it comes to drug testing? This is really the only thing holding me back from coming out there. Also , if you want to know , I'm an HVAC technician , and they're always in demand so getting employment would be somewhat easy for me.

I have news for you..... everyone smokes pot all over the Country and the world..... even down in the bible belt. ;)
thats right. the real reason the bible thumpers are like that is they have so much anxiety about their own issues (mj use in this case) that they have to impose their views on everybody else. you will find the preachers who spread the most hate for gays, for example, are the ones sleeping with every male they can find.

hypocrites die!

So, so, jealous. Not just because of the pot laws either...NoCal rules. I've twice now driven from Texas to LA and taken route 1 north...so damn gorgeous out there.

Also got to live in San Fran for two months or so many years ago....man.

If I had my "druthers," I would live in Santa Cruz. Big Sur area also has high appeal. Hard to go wrong, but I would stick as close to the coast as I possibly could. No offense to any Cali. residents who know more than me...those are just the areas I fell in love with.

Getting a job and buying a house that isn't a shack for a reasonable price both seem like impossible tasks from way out here, however. So bully for anyone who can do it, you have my best wishes.
