Ambulance chaser and TV lawyer, John Morgan is financing both
amendment 2 and Crist.

The problem is Crist is such a lying weasel, I certainly can't trust
him. Scott is a weasel too so I am not sure if I will vote for either
one.

Any politician who says "I love Barak O'Bama" cannot be trusted. What's
in it for Morgan?

I am sure Morgan just wants "his" man in the state house and that is
scary enough. As for the medical pot, I am not sure what Morgan's
connection is but I would want to follow the money. He probably has a
link to the potential producers or distributors.

Some radio show was telling about, I think UPS driver with actual medical
condition and pot prescription. Was fired because UPS has Federal
contracts and is still illegal Federally.

Many companies drug test the young kids before hiring them, don't care
if you have a med card, you smoke pot, you don't work there... period. I
assume it's more of an insurance consideration than anything else. Last
thing an employer wants is the insurance company to find out the worker
who just filed a claim smokes pot, legally, or not...

That is true. Insurance is higher for a company that doesn't have a
drug testing program.


I know for a fact.. I have a friend in charge of one of the biggest
MotorCycle retail parts chains in the Country, and that's what he told
me... The test and don't care if you "don't smoke now" a hair test goes
back at least 6 mos, and if you fail, even a little, no hire for you. Of
course the other half of that equation is your credit report.. which he
indicated carried more weight, however "more weight" doesn't mean much
when the drug policy is zero tolerance... You can be a drunk though....

Would you want a stoned guy driving your truck?
Could the cops still cite him for DUI? (that is yes)
This is far from a settled issue. It will still be up to employers
whether failing a **** quiz is grounds for termination.
I am not sure I would want a stoned employee working for me and that
would include pot, heroin or (legal) prescription pills.
If they have a little lapse and get hurt or hurt someone else, you are
still liable.

Speed might be OK tho ;-)

He did not use it at work they said.

At least some forms of medical pot doesn't get you high.

Talk about "tin hat" lol.. if there is, a true CBD form that doesn't get
you high, I guarantee it's a one off product like the one going through
the courts now for a 7 year old kid... Medical MJ is a joke, maybe 1% of
users really "need" THC or CBD... The rest just want to get stoned..

So let them. I have nothing against casual pot smokers. Better than
drunks.

BTW ... what does a "tin hat" have to do with my comment? All I said is
that some forms of medicinal pot does not get you high. There have been
several reports on it's success.

I bet that won't be a big seller. When I was walking around in
Colorado, before the general legalization, the dispensaries still
bragged about how powerful their "medicines" were.

Crested Butte was an interesting place. They had 5 streets and 6
dispensaries ... and nobody in a restaurant ever got an order right.

It was the biggest concentration of "sick" people I ever saw. ;-)

Do not know what the drivers illness wis. As to Colorado, they figured big
tax revenues. The legal pot has so many taxes and fees, that it is about
2X the price of pot on the treet. $250 vs. $125 or that range.

My God, why don't you all check your facts... I know a lot about the
business, my kids best friends sister owns one of the biggest, most
popular "dispenseries" in Colorado.... Your numbers are made for tv news...
