Budmail - Adult Use Marijuana Dispensaries
A
cannabis Dispensary, cannabis club, or cannabis cooperative is where cannabis
is legally sold for medical or recreational use. In the Dutch they are known as
coffeeshop. In the United States however they exist mainly as an outlet for
medical and recreational use only. In most instances these cooperatives are
located in private homes, where people prefer to grow their own herbs for
personal consumption.
Like
in many states of the United States of America there are many laws that
regulate the production and distribution of marijuana in the state of Michigan.
However, in accordance to the United States Supreme Court the federal
government has absolute authority over the cultivation, manufacture, possession
and Sale of all drugs and substances contained in the Controlled Substances Act
except for Marijuana, which remains illegal under the federal law. Therefore,
under the state law of Michigan a person who possesses or deals with plant
containing a schedule one or schedule two plant or substance is guilty of a felony
and may be subjected to jail time, a substantial fine or both. Although
marijuana is not an addictive substance and does not produce addiction the
crime can be upgraded to a more serious one if it is smoked, used in public,
sold, given to a person known to be addicted to it, and the person knows that
they are violating the law by doing so.
The laws that govern the operation of the adult-use and recreational markets are found in the Michigan statutory code and can be found on the Michigan State House web site under" LEGISTRY" or "STATE LEGISTRY". It should be noted though that while the distribution of marijuana is illegal under federal law the distribution, production, possession, and consumption of edible cannabis is allowed in the 17 states.

Budmail Alternative - Some Insigght
A
cannabis dispensary, cannabis store, or simply cannabis coop is a place in
which cannabis is grown for either medicinal or recreational use. In the United
States, they are commonly known as coffeeshops. In the Netherlands they are
known as hagwaaets. In the United Kingdom they are legally regulated and called
licensed stores. The coops are inspected regularly by government health and
safety authorities and must follow strict health and safety guidelines.
Recently,
the Michigan State House considered and passed, a bill, House Bill 715 which
would regulate medical and recreational use of marijuana and called for the
cultivation and sale of medicinal cannabis to people over the age of eighteen.
The Michigan legislature has voted to make recreational and medical marijuana
legal in the state. The proposal now moves to the state Senate, where it is
expected to pass.
Many
cities across the country have taken action against the growing marijuana
industry. Recently, Denver Colorado introduced a resolution calling on the
federal government to eliminate all laws against marijuana possession or sales
within the state. Several other municipalities and states have similar
resolutions or pending legislation. It appears that the conflict between state
and federal law will only grow and Colorado is leading the way. Perhaps the
next state to legalize marijuana will be Oregon.
