Media- Important

[Hempcheff]

ok, so im reading the latest news on mmj, and i came across this article http://www.freep.com...r-patients-cops

 

 

now this not might seem like a big deal, but the story claims:

 

 

"The law is clearly written to prevent widespread marijuana operations, limiting patients to 12 plants each, or 2 1/2 ounces of marijuana."

 

i hope the public doesnt read this and get the wrong idea about legal amounts, i know the paper has quite a large circulation.

 

i did email her pointing out the error, well see if it gets changed/retracted.

I am also e-mailing AND calling the writer of this story as there were several things they got wrong and published.

 

When I see things in the various papers written that aren't correct, it truly makes my blood boil!

id like to point out an important typo in your article, the MMMA states that patients can possess 12 plants AND 2.5 ounces of marijuana, not OR 2,5 ounces as your article states.

 

id hate for the public to be misinformed about a matter that requires accurate statements and honesty.

 

thank you for your time,
