A pot shop is a phrase we use to define the obvious. That is, most if not all of the medical marijuana dispensaries we have seen, operate as retail storefronts – selling highly potent strains of marijuana to people who have an enormous incentive to feign ’sicknesses’. Unfortunately, and no surprise, significant abuses of the well-intentioned law have been uncovered.
Evidence of abuse? The most glaring is that the range of ’sicknesses’ seem to be plaguing young adult men – as, from all observers accounts, are over 95% of the clientele that visit these drug dealers. There are hundreds of such ’sicknesses’ one can use to get these drugs ‘legally’. Isn’t that amazing – the statistical percentage these young men represent who have this wide range of illnesses and that believe marijuana is the temporary remedy? Are women much more healthy or, do statistically large numbers believe marijuana isn’t the answer? Not likely.
