I HAVE MY MEDICAL MARIJUANA CARD
What Do I Do Next?
My Medical Marijuana card finally came in the mail after waiting for what seemed
like an eternity. I learned the hard way you shouldn’t wear your glasses or smile
showing your teeth when you take your picture for the Oklahoma Medical Mari-
juana Card. If you do either of these two things (I am sure there are other small
nuances the state can use to reject your application) your request for the medical
marijuana card will be denied. After correcting all of my mistakes I waited about
three weeks for my card to arrive in the mail.
The card is elaborate. It has more holographs than a hundred dollar bill. My photo
and birthdate appears twice on the face of the card. Presumably the barely visible
picture (with holographs) in the lower right hand corner makes it more difficult
to counterfeit. This card is well thought out to insure the correct identity of the
bearer.
Turning it over I am first warned of the dangers posed by use of medical mari-
juana, and provided with the number to the Oklahoma Center for Poison and
Drug Information. (Has anyone ever overdosed on marijuana? No!) I then learn,
pursuant to Oklahoma law “license holders are legally authorized to:
1. Possess up to three (3) ounces of marijuana on their person;
2. Possess six (6) mature marijuana plants;
3. Posses six (6) seedling plants;
4. Possess one (1) of concentrated marijuana;
5. Possess seventy-two (72) ounces of edible marijuana; and
6. Possess up to eight (8) ounces of marijuana in their residence.
It then says if I carry this card with me at all times I can possess this much mari-
juana! Wow, that is a lot of medical marijuana!
I keep thinking to myself “didn’t my wife’s cousin go to prison for two years just for
possessing four ounces of marijuana?” And he is still at some kind of work camp.
I can’t believe I can possess this much marijuana and he is doing time for the
same thing...only less.
What the hell is this Russia?
