Its the same as north of the border. Did you know in Canada you can kill someone get it knoked down to manslaughter be out in less than 5 yrs...get busted growing more than 5 plants your gonna do 10 WTH?




actually in the b.c. part of canada its legal to have so much on you and if you have a "shop" you can grow it. if you get caught growing it without a shop they give you a fine not jail otherwise most of b.c. would be locked up. here in the usa the law states if it is prescribed by a doctor (whether its illegal federally or not) you can have it kind of like morphine, oxycotton, etc. most states you can have up to so much( usually 2.5 grams or less) on you and not get in trouble. most states like here in illinois you can grow up to 4 plants and only get a misdermeaner slap on the wrist. everyone should read their states cannabis control act and they will be suprised how different the law actually is than what most think. the true gateway drugs are tobacco and alcohol and prescription drugs. there are more teens using prescription drugs stolen from grandma and grandpas cabinets before even trying pot and most of them dont start smoking pot cause the pills work fine for them. i think this country needs to refocus the war on drugs to the current problems are kids face not what lawmakers faced when they were kids.

Aaaaa reasons that I love being a Callifornian, we have had our medical mj seince 96 (first in the nation). Rock on Michigan, I'm glad to hear that another state has gotten on the bandwagon.
This brings me to a question I've had for a while, If I'm a medical mj patiant, is it ok for me to smoke during a PDGA tourny, if it's taking my meds? Any one know?

whats medical mj?

Emphasis mine. This is from the Rules of Play. Language from the Competition Manual, which also applies, is below this.

RULES OF PLAY

804.05 Disqualification and Suspension

A. A player shall be disqualified by the director for meeting any of the necessary conditions of
disqualification as set forth in the rules, or for any of the following:
(1) Unsportsmanlike conduct, such as; loud cursing, throwing things in anger (other than discs
in play), or overt rudeness to anyone present.
(2) Willful and overt destruction or abuse of plant life, course hardware, or any other
property considered part of the disc golf course or the park.
(3) Cheating: a willful attempt to circumvent the rules of play.
(4) Activities which are in violation of the law or park regulation or disc golf course rule,
including the illegal consumption of drugs or alcohol.

COMPETITION MANUAL (PDF)

Section 3.1.C. The use of illegal substances is forbidden from the 2-
minute warning until the player’s scorecard is submitted.

I'm not an attorney, but I'd figure that in the case of medical marijuana for which a player has a prescription, it would be much like for any other medication that takes a prescription but that would otherwise be unlawful for a player to be using - like stuff with codeine, etc.

So in your oppinon it would be OK?

[T-Dogg]

So it is illegal to use pain meds durring play?

[T-Dogg]

No I mean from the doc...legit and low dose not knock you out pain meds.....that would kinda be counterintuitive wouldn't it?

[Jack Moore]

Yes but sadly there are many people ( Discgolfers included ) going to a doctor who is willing to write them a prescription for medical mj for the price of an office visit and a small in my back pocket fee, I know several socal discer's that have done just that, these people are perfectly healthy and are simply bucking the system for the sake of their addiction. Pretty soon will have discgolfers walking around playing in public parks and in tournament waiving medical mj cards around, and then we wounder why are sport isn't growing.Just my opinion I know I am in the minority.
