Federal drug officials are warning Georgia to shelve its plans to be the first state to allow pharmacies to dispense medical marijuana products.

News outlets report that the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration on Nov. 27 warned pharmacies that dispensing medical marijuana violates federal law.

    If you’re talking about the Springs, the whole county has banned recreational. Manitou is able to have them because it’s a home-rule city.

      I was think of some towns on the Front Range… Greeley, Fort Collins, Windsor. I recall that about Springs but they still have medical, right?

        Yeah, there are medical dispensaries on every corner it seems. It’s not nearly as conservative as generally portrayed, it’s just that the only people that vote in local elections are the focus on the family crowd so we end up with shit.

        Yeah, except no. Again, most Colorado municipalities are home-rule.

        Edit: I like how I linked directly to the county showing that El Paso county does not allow recreational cannabis retailers, including the ordinance banning retail (13-01) and still got downvoted.
