I looked into getting one here in LA and there are 2 reasons why I would get one. The first is so whenever I buy it from my guy, I can act like I got it legally. The 2nd is for gummies. I'm fairly certain I could get the card if I had the money and wanted to. I remember when LA finally allowed medical weed(it was only tinctures for a while). All of their inventory was frozen for months before it became legal to smoke it. We're a party state, or at least New Orleans is a party city. You'd think we have our sheet together and would have good quality. I mean, there's money to be made here. Dumb arses don't know what they are doing.
