Honestly, when dispensaries first started gaining traction in LA I was enchanted. There was this place that everyone called "subway" but it was called the West Hollywood Compassionate Caregivers Club, not even close to where I live. Damn they had really nice dank. The top shelf was $450 an ounce but it was worth it and I had to drive about an hour just to get there. I was devoted until other places started to pop up and they're weed and business practices started going south. Soon after they were raided by the feds and the owner hauled off to prison. Apparently he was a "drug lord" reaping profits. The moral there I guess is sometimes it's better when there are only a couple of good sources rather than a bunch of questionable sources. I stopped going to dispensaries all together. They all seem too shady now and who the hell am I giving all my info to? Russian Mafiosos, Armenian Gangsters, the Mexican Mafias foot soldiers I don't really know and neither does anyone who goes to a shop they've never been to that suddenly sprung up from wood and plaster. I'm not the sharpest tool but regulation would be the best thing all around. A place that has there supply constantly tested and their building inspected, weed on check and not lacking respect, there for a reason not just cause it's in season, where you can score dope amd not be under a scope, clones with no mildew of strains only the real do. Come on LA get it together.
