We only have a couple generations to go.
I can see it. A MMJ Shop right next to Starbucks.............in the Mall.
If you need to ask that, then you're probably better off not going into a shop like that. Go to the one with the impeccably uniformed clueless shop assistant. They'll help you just the way you want.But how are we to know they have quality services if we never enter the store because it's blasting bob marley and smells like nag champa?
I can't answer that without getting rude way beyond the site TOUWhy do businessmen wear suits?
To the guys who pass the laws sadly it probably does.
From the outside looking in you guys need to realise that if dispensarys continue along this path then the feds will shut them down and you'll all be going to the pharmacy to buy marijuana based treatments manufactured by the pharma companys.
THEY PLAYED THEIR CARDS RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING!
I've said basically that same thing 3 or 4 times in this discussion and been thoroughly ignored each time, just like you were this time. That seems to be the issue that some folks don't want to address.
Some of you chaps are quite dense.
personally i found the advertising of smoke parties, coupons, and free 1/8th for first time patients pretty uninspiring in regards to medical cannabis.
if pot was decriminalized or recreational use was legalized, then i wouldnt have any beef with that type of marketing strategy (id be all over it).... it just doesnt seem very 'medicinal' to me to market it in that fashion...
ya, we get what you're saying. we just don't buy it.
Medical cannabis clientele is mostly counterculture. and i really don't think you want to be mainstream. 'cause if the day comes when medical cannabis is accepted, and appeals to more mainstream and/or conservative folks, then medical marijuana providers will be driven out of business and these meds will be sold at the local Walmart or CVS.
after all, that's where the medicine gets sold.

I think some folks are missing LiLWaynE's point. The main issue right now is public perception. The reality is that MJ is still illegal under federal law and the Feds and lawmakers are not going to change their policy if the images they see for a "medical dispensary" look like the green room at a Dead show.
Senior citizens and AARP are one of the largest voting groups in the country. (if not THE largest) Do you honestly think they're going to vote for MMJ when they see pictures like this? HELL NO! Unfortunately if we want to change policy we have to play the game, at least for now. If we're pushing for "medical" MJ then we need to present it as "medical", not recreational.
We need to work on our rights before worrying about our privileges. Let's get MJ legal and then worry about being comfortable.
