“Who’s to say they didn’t already. I just find it very hard to believe one patient needs a 70 plant cache to sustain.”
It’s a slippery slope to try to determine what someone else needs. How much money does one person need? How many guns go you need? How much property do you need?
I agree with yldstrk. Own/Do what you like on your own property.
It could also be a “slippery slope” in blindly accepting excuses. So if the needs of the patient are more than served by the crop and they decide to sell off the excess to your or my kids, that’s okay?
I’m okay with “strictly personal” and property rights and all that, but this libertarian attitude totally neglects other unseen effects and possiblilities - and we are supposed to just take these peoples’ words for it all. No thanks.
