The VA is a federal service and as such has to follow federal law which my agency controls. No matter how much they want the DEA has to approve it and as of yesterday they have no intent to do so. This is why medical MJ is a sticker issue and every doctor that jumps on the medical MJband wagon is at risk of losing their license and capability to prescribe medicine. Currently no Pharmacy’s can dispense medical MJ as they to would lose their licenses and thus you have private businesses popping up in the states to do this.
It is funny that Wednesday during a meeting with our local ATF counterparts for a case I asked them if they were the reason the letters being sent in HI to turn in their firearms and ammo. They swore that they have not initiated this and the local PD came up with it in HI. Also the PD has access to the records for the cards because they are under the same state department from what I heard. That seams convenient that HI would put the program under the same arm of the state government.
Kinda blows the conspiracy nuts that the ATF and big Gov are behind this pulling the strings of the local PD.......
