Mari-tijuana Vending machine

EDIT: Whoops! hehe.

Interesting stuff.
 
Man, itll suck having to get it from that machine. It'll be like when bums hang around ATM machines, wait for you to get money, and then ask for some.

Only instead of bums, it will be broke potheads.


And bums.
 
all those stoners giggling as they drop their quarters makes for a very long line up at the vending machine
 
I could see this being problematic.

Edit: Oh, I didn't see the
he sought the advice of doctors, and decided to limit the amount of marijuana per user to an ounce per week. Each purchase from the machine yields 1/8th or 2/8th of an ounce.

an ounce a week? that's a shitload of pot ..that cant be right ..that's 28 grams
 
I could still see this being problematic with people who are not authorized trying to get at it in various ways.
 
only if you have extremely crappy stuff or are a chain smoker ..there was a report the other day that smoking a single joint gave you as much carciogenics as smoking 20 cigarrettes ...they'd have ...err even more cancer
 
hey stern, in my action figure thread, why dont you just use that model's head as your avatar?

srry off topic
 
you mean like how coke machines are always found on their sides with their insides gutted by greedy little fat kids with a coca-cola addiction?

if anything it will promote people to full on darwin award recipients when the vending machine falls on top of them
 
Unlike coke machines however, something can be gained with arson!
 
Zombieturtle, the machines are INSIDE the medical marijuana dispensaries, guarded, etc. It's not like they're in back alleys or anything; no-one's going to steal weed from them and even if they did that's hardly all that much of a problem.

I have one of these:

I could smoke (or vaporize rather) an ounce in a day, much less a week. If I wanted to anyway.
 
I still think if they are going to do something like this legally, they should do it in a more official and established system of distribution and protection.
I think the machine should be used for it's medical intent (obviously). Abusing the machine's liberties doesn't help anyone.

(And no, I am not trying to fuel up a weed legalization debate)
 
That's a good idea, Police stations would be a good starting point. Buy your weed, get arrested and save the environment. Having them in prison waiting area's would also cut out the middle man.

Still, that is so vague in the article, is the "guard" even authorized to protect it? Or is it just some big guy with a black shirt that says "Security" on the front of it? Their authorization and protection procedures seem a bit unofficial and faux.



Your analogy of soda pop indulgences and weed smoking are hardly related.

This machine could be viewed idealistically, almost as a cash deposit. Instead of cash, you have a very desired product inside. However the product is strictly limited to a specific people with a specific need. So the demand and desire for something so easily accessible could easily become an abused liberty, possibly screwing over the people who sincerely need it.

it doesnt sound to me like you've tried it yourself ..it's not crack, it's not the same level of dependancy

while I'm sure someone could smoke 28 grams you wouldnt want to. in fact you'd probably fall asleep half way through ..at least of the stuff I get which is potent
 
probably not a good idea to confess the fact that you smoke weed on the internetz
 
Haha, bravo BHC!

PS. you realize your location says "drafy", right? D:
 
It's been fixed, nothing to look at here gentlemen.

It must have been like that since I registered here some ~4+ years ago.

I understand that, my point wasn't saying that they are raving addicted lunatics that will stop at nothing to get weed. Actually thats not what I meant at all. The issues that I believe would arrise from this are different.

I didn't say anything misinformed, dumb, or embarrassing here.

This is pretty rare, it's not that addicting, nobody said anything about a heroin dispensing machine. Junkies have more 'thrilling' things to sell their spine plasma for.

Did you read my post? You read it wrong, I said the opposite of what you thought. :P

No there aren't...

I don't quite understand what these "issues" that'd arise are. You've not stated anything very concrete.

What a waste.

Well, not really, given the fact before the matter that I do smoke, so the vaporizer not only saves me a lot of money (3x as efficient as burning it) and also has almost none of the negative health effects like tar and carcinogens.

Well, if the federal government would acknowledge the state's right to make its own laws about drugs, this would be possible. As it is, truly legitimate operations are impossible because of the legal status of such an endeavor.

I go to a liberal university in a liberal city - my shit's potent too. Smoking 28g a day would be a huge waste but it's definitely possible, even without falling asleep. Just pointless, expensive, and silly.

I'm a member of my school's NORML chapter, I don't think anyone has any illusions...

like I said it may be possible but smoking 28grams of anything in a 24 period isnt a good idea

thats irony
 
These should be on every street corner. All four corners.

Then I wouldn't have to drive 35 miles across town tonight...
 
Just watch them all get broken into.
 
True, or lit up as Krynn mentioned. They'd have to be practically mini-fortresses. Or they could just have it at liquor stores for anyone 21+ and be done with it.

One day.
