California’s Marijuana ATM Machine
AMERICANS can ban online gambling, talk about food in terms of carbs and proteins and be prissy, prudish and reactionary. And then it goes and allows the sale of weed in a vending machine:
AVMs are 24/7 machines housed in standalone rooms, abutting two dispensaries and protected by round-the-clock security guards — like ATMs for people combating psychological withdrawal with a physical one.
After cinching up your doctor’s consultation, hit an AVM location to get your prescription approved, fingerprint taken, and a prepaid credit card loaded with your profile: dosage (3.5 or 7 grams, up to 1oz a week) and strain preference (choice of five, including OG Cush and Granddaddy Purple, the mildly hallucinogenic forebear to Prince).
Then day or night, all you do is hit a machine and walk away with enough vacuum-sealed, plastic-encapsulated cheeba to adequately treat your illness, and guarantee your car never smells like new leather again.
Marijuana is pain relief. Legalise it…

Americans are dumb

Eliz, think about it - the State of California allows this machine for those who use it medicinally, though Federal Law still calls for a jail term for possession, regardless of intention. This could only happen in America, our land of contradiction . . .

I love how “Americans” are depicted. Brits are just jealous their socialist government doesn’t allow good enough medical care to even obtain something like this. And, yes.. when are they coming to the Great Lakes State???
