Ms. slntchttrbx...what are you speaking of my friend? Here in California the DEA doesn't normally bust "patients" usless they are growing 2 acres of medical marijuana for "personal need" .
The owner/operators of MCDs make a more than fair profit for the chance they take with the Feds. (There are probably more than MCDs now than ever, numbering in the hundreds.)
It's all so political and California DEA busts are becoming less and less poitically feasible for the DEA, not only here in Califonia but in Washington, D.C. also.
The pendelum is swinging my friend...take a deep breath, relax.
