Everyone knows the real money is in the cartels.


I guess knowing what you're doing is illegal makes it easier to conduct business compared to grey markets.

Risk/reward.



Cartels have more money, are willing to pay for laundering services and aren't going to talk about it; unlike some hippy selling weed out of a quasi-legal dispensary.

I think you're seeing this all wrong, Bama.  All the raids aren't because he hates teh ganja, it's because he wants to keep it all for himself and the wookie.  Legal weed = less for the white house staff.

It is not the weed he hates. He hates that states are using it as a way to say FU to the fed and fed drug laws.

No Obama loves weed, why? Because its going to give the perfect reason to take guns away from a bunch of US citizens. Remember the end game is no guns for anyone, so that he can declare himself the next King George.

Disagree. The Dems are floating ballot measures in several states because pro-pot voters tend to vote for Dems.

But back on topic, in Colorado, they are scanning your ID if you buy recreational MJ. I wonder who is maintaining that database and where is the info going?

I personally think these ballot measures are a one-time desperate shot for the Dems. It paid off in Colorado, but are those voters going to come back and vote Dem again now that the issue is essentially off the table? I'm guessing not unless Republicans threaten to make it illegal again.

Partner Chris Williams, the only marijuana provider arrested in the crackdown to go to trial, was found guilty of eight drug and weapons charges.

Montana Cannabis partner sentenced to probation




http://www.businessinsider.com/montana-medical-marijuana-federal-crackdown-2013-5

Pot advocates were running caravans, helping hundreds of residents in a day get medical marijuana user cards. Some doctors who conducted cursory exams on scores of people were fined.

"For a long time, we were hearing complaints from local law enforcement and from citizens ... that they were tired of marijuana and they were tired of it next to schools, to churches, people smoking it openly on the streets,"

In Montana, what started out as a system to provide marijuana to those with health problems turned the state into a source for drug trafficking, Cotter said. The industry had ballooned so much and so quickly that drug traffickers were operating under the guise of medicinal caregivers, and the pot was being sent to users in New Jersey, Virginia, Colorado and other states, he said.

Now, marijuana is still in Montana







http://www.cannabisnews.org/montana-medical-marijuana-industry-on-wane/2012/01/02/


He didn’t mention anyone by name but one Missoula resident, Jason Christ, became infamous for Internet “tele-clinics” and traveling “cannabis caravans” where physicians provided medical marijuana recommendations for hundreds of people in a few hours.

“I know that the people in my home community are happy that the storefronts are no longer present and the billboards are not actively promoting the product and sending messages to the youth of the community.”
