It was promised that under the law (Prop 215 and SB 420)-that passed and stood the test of many lawsuits. It is about states' rights vs. federal rights. At least Joel [Castle of Chico Cannabis Club] has stepped up to the plate and is trying! Who else has? We have three "pot doctors" here in Chico, but nowhere to legally buy meds. Why is that? The Chico City Council never has any talk about this subject; it's always last on the list at meetings and is always ignored! Thanks for nothing, City Hall. I say more power to you, Joel, and keep up the good work for all of us who for whatever reasons can't fight the fight we believe in! Jay Maxwell Paradise - --- MAP posted-by: Larry Seguin
