When I Think Of The Transfer Of Cannabis,

Posted by Ms Chocolate , 04 July 2012 · 377 views

When I think of the transfer of cannabis, I think of the caregiver who transfers the materials she/he has grown or purchased to the patient who has them listed under their state registration.  

When I think of the transfer of cannabis, I think of the patient who might give some material to a friend.  

Being that not all patients smoke; I think of the tr...

Today is Independent’s Day; the day set aside by Congress to celebrate freedom. When this day was first established, it was to tout the colonies freedom from British oppressors. What freedoms are we celebrating today?

Our Courts Are Confused

In the case of Rodney Koon; Let us keep in mind that Koon was had been drinking, and was driving 28 miles over the speed limit. Without the marihuana, Koon was baked. Yes there was active THC in his system. The defendant stated that he had smoked 5-6 hours earlier, but had it been 5-6 days earlier, he would have tested positive. Rodney had to know he was...

Division 1 - Controlled Substances

Posted by Ms Chocolate , 30 November 2011 · 305 views

Although I posted the results of my survey a few days ago, I was not going to release it for comments until I posted the narrative. If you could see and feel my hands right now, you would know that it will be a while for that narrative to be completed.

In August, when I first offered a survey; I had hoped to receive hundreds, up to a thousand responses....

The Medical Use of Marihuana as a Health Care Issue
© 2011 Chocolate Cherri  


  December 3, marks the completion of three years of the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act. For me, those three years have been adventurous. Because most here don’t know me, I won’t get into it, for those who do, what a ride.

  I see the road ahead as being very rocky. With...

If You Wondered Why Our Federal Government Is So Hard On Cannabis Use, It’S Because Of A Treaty Agreed To In 1961

Posted by Ms Chocolate , 23 May 2011 · 134 views

I only presented the parts I felt applied to the web site. The highlights are mine.  

Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, 1961
The adoption of this Convention is regarded as a milestone in the history of international drug control. The Single Convention codified all existing multilateral treaties on drug control and extended the existing control system...

Follow-Up To My “I Am Not A Michigan Medical Marihuana Act Expert” Blog

Posted by Ms Chocolate , 15 May 2011 · 161 views

This is written as a follow-up to my “I am not a Michigan Medical Marihuana Act expert” blog. Just as dispensaries are not written into our law, neither are any other businesses. This was not conceived as way to bring the State out of its depression, any more than I was designed to stop a foreclosure or repossession. Some people may be surprise to hear th...

I had been asked to do a medical marihuana presentation. This was not a big deal being I had been doing presentations for two years. What makes this presentation different is the audience.

The 3M A Did This!

Posted by Ms Chocolate , 25 January 2011 · 152 views

Under the Michigan model, a compassion club is an outlet for education. It is not a store or a place to buy and sell marihuana.  I believe the main factor in compassion club being lumped in the same category as dispensaries and social outlets is because the Michigan Medical Marijuana Association has allowed for dispensaries and the like to be sanctioned a...
