relatively but nothing yet it remains illicit and demonized in much of the world today marijuana has never been more valuable or  idea of where we're at why they didn't care what they do as far as claiming that you're within a thousand feet of the school but then again sort of these other guys you're the only one that's kind of creating a foundation o the whole idea of this is medicine this is medical it's organic no you don't give joints away there are medical joints that somebody used their sliwa to creative it's a joint you know the whole thing is absurd different practices there's no standard s various other people that are kind of tedium of this thing and it's the thing that we're all looking at is wait a minute it's new it can help make things happen economically it's kind of something that people are like blind to  that they're not seeing the whole picture but we do you do you see the foundation for gannicus you've been practicing organics and nobody's really carrier participating in realizing or even purchase we may help use or you will learn from you and you teach classes organics right i mean that's right you're about the only one that does and so now with the use of television persuasion we can actually create a means but let's say we we can see king county always been focused and dedicated about it being medicine for patients medicine does not contain poison well it shouldn't be the pharmaceuticals contain a lot of poison but they should nothing as medicine should be made with poison pesticides or poison so when when the growers grow cannabis with systemic pesticides they are and i don't care how well they flush it at the end the damage is done the poison is the air over half medical marijuana patients have compromised immune system both last thing in the world we need in our bodies as a poison that's the last thing anybody needs in their bodies quite frankly whether they have a compromised immune system or not that's certainly a good way to get a compromised immune system is to soothe the boys and i've had conversations i've had the double weeks ago with the woman who said every time i smoke marijuana i get a headache and i said oh no no no no cannabis actually curious headaches it's the pesticides they give people at aids that's why we really want and need to get we are in a unique position right here let me say that and in seattle particularly in the state of washington we have an opportunity quite frankly to create something very good for patients very exciting and be the model for the country so instead of doing you know all this reaction stuff and have a crazy stuff that's going on right now we need to be building for patients betterments for our society's betterment what has happened and we've talked about this on the show before is legislation by the da this is just so not ok what just happened this way the last thursday twenty three letters were received by various access point managers and owners there waves in a lot of time trying to find down if there were any commonalities why were these twenty three chosen out of the hundred and four hundred that probably exist in the state under forty in the city of seattle alone when the da came last year in november they were going for the wait criminal enterprises this was not the case this time it truly looks like it was simply a bureaucrat sitting at a desk with a map same oh we can get this one over we can get this one he ration now is is very bizarre the letters all were identical with th da has found those facilities where they're within one thousand feet of an educational facility or a restricted zone what does that mean i don't know what that means nobody seems to know what that means but the da and they're not telling us you know we've looked around aren't turning called immediately and talk to somebody at that at the office and was told that we were with us we were only seven hundred seventy nine feet from a middle school there are no middle school history there are no middle schools in the it is true there is no middle school anywhere near a super and then the d then they didn't so my attorney called back and then was told oh i'm so sorry we made a mistake it's the university of washington law what it is the best that we can figure is that behind the alley that we we're on on fifteenth and forty fifth clear is  little office space at the very end of the parking garage that office space is utilized by a program a little program for the university of washington there are no no students there there are no classes is simply an information center with two receptionist to douse some chairs and a lot of paper and i asked them straight out i went in and introduced myself and i asked them do you have classes here absolutely not do you have students here the facility restricted zone when in fact it stops at one hundred forty theer it doesn't pick up again and tilt much further south so it really doesn't run behind it doesn't matter once we got the letter it was over all cannabis removed and in the case of green hope that's all they had was an access point in the case of choice wellness we are still alone but there is no cannabis there but we it is such a shame though that one important part of patients treatment modality has been removed from us and we have always been or any of the people who hate us and let us say exactly the same thing about us as that we won't shut up about organic and that is absolutely true for the reasons that i explained poison does not belong in medicine fencer disappear what's your take on all of this excitement well i'm quite and about how they're you know singling certain ones out not by their actions but my more vocation i guess it's location location but it's hopefully it's  a learning point for some people in a milestone that we can overcome and i know you're you're in good spirits over this all because we have belief and faith and good things will happen for people who do good for other people and i know it works in my life my practice is one of the things that we would really like to see going and one of the things that we have tried to be in the over the last two and a half years has been somewhat of a guiding light to pull this industry out of the stone ages to truly presented in his it's true beautiful medical model and for that we would really like just to work with the king county officials and evil up a king county cannabis food safety act there are a number of people that are producing various products many of them have absolutely no consistency so people don't have a clue what they're getting three twenty two access points have lost their ability to be in your location maybe there's some property owners out there or real estate people out there that would like to help offer up some property that's vacant right now and needs to be renovated or just occupied by a good business that's legit and good to the community and you know so if there's anybody out there maybe they could contact donna and she can also contact other people that  have access points that organised along that would be wonderful because when you're looking for a location finding a school with a public school is easy finding a zone you know you know you just almost have to get out in the forest someplace and we don't have a lot of big forest areas in the city of seattle one of the things that has been on my mind tremendously for the last horse that's right big course i've said right we should be growing here here absolutely i mean we're giving all the money to the canadians and i'd not that i have anything against canadians they are cousins we are children of a common mother however why why are we producing this miracle crop ourselves for fabric for housing for so many things industrial hemp is just amazing that's one of things to choice while mrs is doing now is is putting a lot of emphasis on utilizing him for a number of different areas w wonderful time one of my big concerns though and what has weighed most heavily on my mind here in the last week is that the actions of the da have in point of fact denied very sick people of legal se access which is was the whole point of our legislation in one nine hundred ninety eight was to have legal safe access for our patients meeting somebody in a parking lot taking product to their home and whether you go in or out it doesn't put everybody at risk it puts the provider at risk it puts the patient at risk it is so much more dangerous than having a secure store front container sealed and we don't want their marriage to label everything properly labeled and go on their merry way what's happening is that with this kind of what i've been calling for ages here the d n a legislation by the a is that it puts patients in tremendous jeopardy once again and quite frankly it drives it back it to the schools having safe legal access for adults to get their medication removes cannabis from the schools putting it back in the back alleys and parking lots put it you can fight you can get your medicine much easier in any middle school in this state that is a shame and a  not ok why are we pushing our children in point of fact the federal government is saying we want our little ten twelve thirteen fourteen year olds to be our medical delivery system that's crazy a if you think it's too good to be true or it sounds too good to be true it probably is and is so read and research any law you're going to vote for or being acted i five zero two is a trick and there's another initiative to counteract that which is i phone five five fourteen five fourteen to keep cannabis out of schools but to legalize it without penalize ing it and also allowing for hemp and to be produced as a commercial resource and makes a lot more sense and if you're patient enough and vote for the right laws that hopefully will make it on the ballot conserve your vote through that and you know if you can vote have to prove we're medical right and so what we have to be medical yeah that's a start let's start with the medical let's start with let's start with paying attention hipaa we've had him play in our lives for quite some time and yet most of the clinics out there absolutely and most of the access points absolutely blow it out i'm not even sure they know what it is they shouldn't be in the business if they don't know what what the heck they're doing know and they shouldn't be in the business if they're not going to follow it but they should not in the business if they're not going to protect patients and spitting in medicine is not protecting medicine putting poison in bad and in the in the cannabis and use it in the growing is not protecting patients you know so what i would like to see the county develop and we can certainly work with them in a more than happy to work with them is that is a standard really truly standards for in the same kind of sense that many food products have to have standards that are established more than i would the state one of the things that i've talked about for several years if you can't wait for me to listen to me will recall is that you know you you couldn't make cookies for your daughter's elementary school classroom because you might poison and that's crazy too and yes i am a little bit of a nut about organic i do eat non organic food but i mostly eat organic food i just happen to work right across the street she feeds so i can't help myself and i'm sure if you had a job there you especially here in the pacific northwest is that our awareness about organics has bred i risen tremendously if you look at all of our grocery stores it's just not p c c in central market where you can get organic food anymore we're w like a drink of water here when you go to fred meyer you go to safeway you go to q have so used you will see increasingly large sections of organics not as good as we would like yet but it's getting there and it's because we care in the pacific northwest hey we care about the purity of what we're putting in our body and we're carrying more and more and bats the cannabis has to be part of that whole program and we need a cannabis food act where everything is tested i don't want to put something out for a patient with a patient not knowing what's in it that just doesn't make any sense so they need to know how much t h c they need to know how many c v d's c p answer the phones and from the phone bank you know like they do with public television but we do need these standards and we need them now we need them in just as soon as possible and and so that people so that patients can know i just put a sheet out cancer a lot of things what she components are helpful in the healing of that a tremendous amount of what we do is educating people and educating patients because a patient is not the same old thing of like ten years ago hey you needs to be more of us who are into the sharing there's a small group of us in this industry who are into sharing there's another group of course the profiteers don't want to share anything they want to and everything is proprietary we think they find it they find a seed someplace and oh yeah wow that's mine like i own it this particular strain named going to search ten thousand strain so we really didn't need there's any way in hell probably we could work it were go along fine without it but we really have to get these standards in place and i and i also believe that as we develop these standards and put them in place that is again a huge message to the federal government that this is medicine that this can be regulated this can be controlled people medical marijuana patients are not the people running around shooting people at two o'clock in the morning or ten o'clock in the morning we're worrying too much about stan alive i'm gone we're at the last four minutes and i'm going to tray and say what do we need to we're finding at the brokers are getting their act together finding out where they can get ahold of proper landlord tenant relationships right if there's are acceptable they realize that this is something that once they realized the choice well this is actually you are at the  yeah they're for a wonderful woman very ethical and the city of shoreline actually is upset about about her closing because she is she was absolutely number one in the city of seraing and what's frustrating for those of us who are trying and working so hard to do good and legal responsible job for patients is to see the drug dealers waking and huge profits that don't care about patients and nobody is even bothering them this is why legislation  oh absolutely sure but we are still open we have we have reduced our hours a bit because i can't afford to pay that much but staff time when when we don't have that much to sell but we still have i still have our low cost chamber legislative body people here in seattle that have forums of influence to be able to listen and respond and help us lead the way to green organic standards right on that is right and i saw him socks coming up this next weekend and just specifically for you as a patient it requires time from your physician so if you are going to a clinic that is just really signing authorizations you're not getting the best value for your the rights in the property of the genetics of care strain a lot of jane has grown as are out there growing brilliant strains and it's my opinion that the best strains of marijuana for medicine have had to be created in a genetic don't let someone other way trust me i mean it's a mile and a half you know a lot of park it's not easy i mean i tell you probably you know after having to stop and smoke several times on the way up it gets a little bit easier but please give it up for dawn we have the most draconian laws in this country guarding cannabis and we have managed to spread them throughout the world i am wearing this shirt today because this is the first victim in this country of our draconian laws samuel caldwell on october second  were all convicted of the kingpin statute and meeting up in the king upon most of you sitting on seeing the sea dock mean i want to think i was a guy i was bringing those boats underneath the golden gate bridge today i run a public company i saw the first public company in america call medical marijuana think and saw that about a year and a half ago and now have a company called marijuana think it's a public company which is right now changing the name to happening because my focus is if i do medical marijuana go bust me the feds will come in and bust me some focusing on  remember it's h t m t medical marijuana another great stock that has doubled in the last two weeks is m j and a another great one is rather tired marketing company shoshu machine around here somewhere she represents  books and then i started so we're going to capture all that before all my buddies die of old age i am some of these guys are seventy eighty years old or we're going to get all the parts the first one the golden gate smoking company and soccer is out now the second one is in print and then we're going to go after the guys from late the last horseman guys because they have great stories and those are great guys you know they've seen it from the other side and what about and you have bat masterson and wyatt earp stories so that's the division series of that so yeah north west sleep is a medical marijuana makes because out to forty thousand patients each month and we serve as a source of free information that is only relevant to patients we don't do music reviews or party reviews we're just directors over there and it's cool really looking forward to the northwest northwest to me treating people's video input to things like that video documentaries and things like that they'll be awesome and we got to take submissions from patients out the contributors helping good county code system in the sense that it is legal that makes it medically legal and then eventually the counties could get legislate to create commercial codes for cannabis even now that they're creating ninety eight seat can
