Your choice in PA: 2A or medical marijuana

[Gman106]

I'd like to thank everyone on this board for their comments and guidance. Here's the story. It quotes Cephus and GMAN106. Please let me know if I've misconstrued anything. And thanks again. Sam http://www.philly.com/philly/busines...-20171228.html

Ha, just noticed I was quoted!

I'm not Jennifer either...but I have a few questions:

1). Is there any actual difference between "medical marijuana" and "non-medical marijuana"? If so, what is it?

2). Does it really matter if someone ELSE thinks a person can benefit? If THAT person feels they can benefit from "medical marijuana" then what difference does it make what anyone else thinks?

3). If someone thinks they can benefit from "non-medical" marijuana, why shouldn't they have the same right as some who thinks they can benefit from "medical marijuana" ?

Usually medical is an extract and not smoked. The tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) the psychotropic part is removed.

In Pennsylvania, you can buy a product called shatter, an extract that is 89.3 percent THC.
The state's medical marijuana advisory panel on Monday recommended that dispensaries be allowed to sell leaf and flower. Many strains clock in at over 30% THC.
One puff and you're done.

"Medical marijuana" in Pa. is tightly regulated cannabis that has grown by a company with a state permit, tested for purity by a chemist with a state-issued permit, and sold by a dispensary with a state permit to a patient with one of 17 qualifying conditions. That is someone who has been certified by a state-approved doctor and approved by the state to receive a state-issued medical marijuana card. Got that?

You stated your above statement like a true statesman.

State permit rings a bell.

State permit rings a bell.

Just means background check.

So, having an LTCF might be a prohibitive factor in obtaining a MJ card, no?

No, but having an MJ card will be a prohibitive factor in any future LTCF or gun purchase background checks...

OP answer your question "...a person who owns 18 firearms and then obtains a License...now one more gun is going to make him dangerous..." Me, myself and I, do not believe it makes that person a danger, actually I think contrary that the medicated MJ user will be melllllloooooooowwwwwwwwww.. unlike a "Legal" opioid addict who ran out of their prescribed drugs and will do anything for money to get illegal drugs..

If this were true why are all the brothers in the HOOD shooting the hell out of each other?
