I believe they mean stealing it. I wouldn't be surprised. Especially since it has a bad enough reputation as it is, you'll have to try pretty hard to get people to accept it.
What? Stealing what? Medical marijuana? That's pretty loving low to steal medical marijuana. I also think that'd be quite hard, I've never been in a dispensary but something tells me they don't have weed sitting out on shelfs for you to peruse.

It doesn't matter, some people don't want Medical marijuana, and this abuse gives them more of an argument. If you really wanted Medical Marijuana, why don't you try doing something to support it proof-wise? It's a lot easier to stop, and Self Delete causes vary much more.

Stealing from dispensaries. You're making it extremely obvious that you're trolling.
Dispensaries are pretty high security and I honestly think it'd be easier to just grow your own than steal from a dispensary. If theft from them was such a problem I'm pretty sure it would be receiving at least some attention from the conservatives.

Also now you're saying that my argument in reply to yours doesn't matter simply because yours gives people on the other side a reason?
Does that mean my argument makes luddites right because that's essentially their argument? (Well, their argument is MACHINERY AM BAD, but I digress.)


Also:

Quote
The straw man fallacy occurs in the following pattern of argument:
Person A has position X.
Person B disregards certain key points of X and instead presents the superficially similar position Y. Thus, Y is a resulting distorted version of X and can be set up in several ways, including:
  • Presenting a misrepresentation of the opponent's position.
  • Quoting an opponent's words out of context — i.e. choosing quotations that misrepresent the opponent's actual intentions (see contextomy and quote mining).
  • Presenting someone who defends a position poorly as the defender, then refuting that person's arguments — thus giving the appearance that every upholder of that
  • position (and thus the position itself) has been defeated.
  • Inventing a fictitious persona with actions or beliefs which are then criticized, implying that the person represents a group of whom the speaker is critical.
  • Oversimplifying an opponent's argument, then attacking this oversimplified version.
Person B attacks position Y, concluding that X is false/incorrect/flawed.
This sort of "reasoning" is fallacious, because attacking a distorted version of a position fails to constitute an attack on the actual position.

You're doing the bolded ones.

Okay, all in all, Medical Marijuana is highly unlikely to be accepted. It has a very wide history of other abuses, therefore making it difficult for some to accept. Unless something is done, it's simply not gonna happen.
I HAVE NO ARGUMENTS LEFT SO I'M GOING TO SIMPLY REITERATE MY DISMISSAL OF EVERYTHING SAID CONTRARY TO ME AND THEN ASSUME I'M THE ONLY ONE RIGHT

I actually went and looked this up.


I don't know what that looks like to you guys, but to me that looks a lot like a jewelery store. I don't think its very easy to steal from a jewelery store, so I don't think it'd be very easy to steal from a weed store.

it's not easy to steal from a "weed store" because they have loving BLACK MEN with HUGE MUSCLES guarding EVERY DOOR

It's already legal in a list of states. It's likely to become legalized completely in California next time it's up, the voter turnout was something upwards of 40% for legalization. Since then the pro-marijuana force has grown more, and it's a matter of years until it's legalized in Ca.

I've been to shops like that, they're really friendly places.
