Marijuana Vending Machines Opening For Business in LA
Holy crap, what country is LA in? I mean, last time I was there I was surprised enough at the billboards offering medicinal marijuana cards, but this is insane. Starting on Monday, people who have medical conditions such as glaucoma, cancer, and the deadly not-stoned-enough virus can start getting their fat buds from special "AVMs."

These electronic drug dealers won't be out on the street next to a Pepsi machine, of course. No, they'll be "housed in standalone rooms, abutting two dispensaries and protected by round-the-clock security guards." To use them, you'll need to go with a prescription in hand, get fingerprinted and get a prepaid credit card that's loaded up with your dosage and what strain of weed you want. Yeah, no joke, the pharmacists in LA give you a choice between OG Kush and Granddaddy Purple. In the future, the machines may also be outfitted to sell other popular drugs such as Viagra, Vicodin and Propecia. Combine all four for a really interesting night that'll also slowly grow your hair back!

2. why not marijuana vending machines everywhere.
sell it and tax it, a whole lot more profitable than the absurd war on drugs. just don't see what gives government the right to regulate what adults put in their bodies of their own free will.

5. I have seen vending machines like that before
In dispensaries on Santa Monica Blvd in Hollywood, The cookies range between $5 to 8$ each and the popcorn costs 15$.

I am working on a proposition I intend to petition onto one of the upcoming ballots in the next couple of years. The proposition, "Californians for Reasonable Marijuana Laws", will be intended to re-legalize marijuana and constitutionally challenge the federal government's assertion on jurisdiction and basing that challenge by using the 9th, 10th and 14th amendments along with the SCOTUS case of Marbury v. Madison.
