New York Medical Marijuana 2011

Discussion in 'Marijuana Legalization' started by GM-2X, Sep 19, 2011.

  1. Ohhh shit. Nice, though I thought Aids patients and Cancer patients could already get MMJ in NY, or they referring to NYC when they say lack of MMJ program?

    NY has the potential to bring Medical and Recreational use to the East Coast really, really quickly if we bring on a good stance.
     
  2. All NY media sources are showing increasing favor towards legalization for use of New York citizens. It is gaining power with people, petitioning and rallying. Having their voices heard for a good cause such as Marijuana legalization.
     
  3. SWEET! if i could get some stickers to support this id put them around my college. i already see ron paul ones haha
     
  4. Well I recall someone I talked to the other day, or some thread on here where NYC and Rochester(Other cities Albany, Syracuse, Buffalo, ect.) all had dispensaries and smoke shops on just about every corner during the alcohol prohibition. We got rid of the dispensaries and traded em for bars, I'd like to see a balance of the two.
     
  5. I certainly hope we do not follow a lead of New Jersey. Their "Medicinal Marijuana" bill is a certain step in the wrong direction.

    It is extremely restrictive; there are only 6 "Treatment Centers" which have MMJ of "limited strength", that a VERY small percentage of people can even take advantage of. People in NJ also cannot grow cannabis.

    Their governor is (not WAS, IS!) against MMJ but instituted it as control-freakishly as possible so that people will support him. Cuomo should not be in office as governor of New York, and him "reviewing the issue" on MMJ is likely him weighing out how he can make it happen, restrict the hell out of it, and still gain loads of support from MMJ supporters. Just. Like. New. Jersey.

  6. Post some websites and online maps. So heads can support their local NY dispensaries.
     
  7. Rochester:
    Ghost Dog Glass (Awesome)
    Elab
    Smoker's Choice
    Skyy High
    Dewey Ave.

    Kingston/Woodstock:
    Head to Toe
    Not Fade Away
    Smoker's Choice
    Porn Shop

    New Paltz:
    Likwid (very nice)
    Utopia

    That's all of the one's I can think of in NY off the top of my head. Listed in order starting with the best in each city IMO.

    I've been following this for what feels like centuries now. As an unfortunate member of this state, I believe NY is finally close to passing a bill.

    However everything I've heard in the past 18 months says that the NY MMJ Bill will make NY the strictest MMJ state by a wide margin.

    Anyone have any news to the contrary??

    To me it seems pointless to pass a bill that will still leave millions without the care they need...
     
  11. When this bill passes it will be the foot in the door for all legalization expansion.
