Late last week, an Oregon State trooper staked out 45th Parallel, a medical marijuana clinic near the Idaho border. Apparently the trooper issued citations to people as they left the building, including a $1000 ticket for “residue” on a used pipe. Elvy Musikkam, famous in MMJ circles as one of only four US citizens currently to have a federally-authorized MMJ patient card (as well as a state card), was one of the patients caught in the round-up.
Why this extra-zealous police activity? According to Russ Belville, outreach coordinator for NORML, the federal department of justice has been urging state police to go after state card-carrying patients. However, the feds neglected to let the troopers know there’s such as thing as a federal MMJ card. Awkward!
What's next for infused products? Manufacturers must cater to demand for CBD, rapid onset and microdosing to stay ahead.
Just for that little stunt by state troopers, i will vote for the measure every time it comes up, which i voted against. but not anymore!!!!
