Rant About MMJ Detractors From Council Meetings!

I have noticed a few local Columnists have been swirling some "Stories" (editorial commentary) about MMJ (Medical Marijuana) Patients shouting, dressing badly and behaving "Out Of Order" at council Meetings... well...


I was not there; I did not witness any particular incident!  However, I will say that I can understand that there are some real anger issues and how frustrated people are over this mess (not just in Chico), because, it does not matter ONE BIT what "these people" have to say, no matter WHAT, the Councils (multiple cities) are going to do whatever it is they have set their narrow minds to do, the "haves" are squashing the "have nots" and they are becoming increasingly overwhelmed with the inability to get a “message” through to them!  Nor do they understand the audacity to show a total lack of empathy in these "Councils" everywhere that are determined to run over their rights to affordable medication!!! Also, it is very tacky to keep on attacking their "attire", challenge their intelligence and then call out for their ridicule instead of hearing ANYTHING that they are upset and overwrought about!! Other, "classier" MMJ patients are hiding and living in fear they will be "discovered" and subsequently ostracized by their so called "peers" and stay quietly aside and silent!  They can and will continue to afford to buy it OTC, no matter the rise in cost and will say nothing!  For example, there is not a chance your going to see the “Nursing Supervisor” from our Local Hospital there, standing up for her rights and waving her MMJ card around!!  Certainly not, she will continue to pay an exorbitant price at the local store because there is no way she can grow her 2-3 plants and can never let anyone know she has a Prescription!  You are only getting to witness the anger and frustration of the people with pretty much nothing left to loose and have no other way to get their only means of RELIEF for their PAIN AND SUFFERING!  What do you think the chances are of getting part of that scrip picked up by Medicare Plan B?  No?  Okay, well, it costs about $300-$500 per month on average OTC right NOW!  Keep putting those restrictions on and soon it will be X2-X3 higher than that! YOU would be outraged and out of control too if you had to live in constant PAIN, every minute of every hour, because some ignorant fool does not like the smell of your PLANT!  Mind you this smell is only for a few weeks ONCE a year!!  Dog poop, lawn/bug sprays and leaf fires are YEAR ROUND!!  How about a ban on all noxious plants? I wish they would ban all flowering trees too, at least a few hundred feet from my house, because they are Killing My Allergies right now!!
