Toni Armijo will be getting some compensation from the Albuquerque, New Mexico, Police Department for her destroyed cannabis plants. She did, however, have to wait quite awhile for this payday.
In August of 2010, a neighbor of Ms. Armijo called the police concerned that she was suicidal. When the police came to do a wellness check on her, she was gone, but they entered and found her marijuana plants just sprouting beneath a grow light. The officers pulled all the plants from their pots and held them as evidence. By the time Armijo came back to her house, and was able to convince the police that she was a licensed grower for her own medical marijuana, her entire crop, now stuffed into a paper bag, was ruined.
Officials in Albuquerque will have to pay Ms. Armijo $3,100 dollars for her loss.

Contact your elected representatives and urge them to 'Stop Arresting Marijuana Smokers'. 
I am so sorry cannabis did not work well for you. It is not for everyone.
That said, 9999% of anything is impossible and the side effects of Seroquel, Ativan, and Topamax are far worse for most people than cannabis.
of course it is one sided junkies
marijuana is a horrible drug, worse than heroin, these are the facts you are 7 X more likely to suffer from marijuana. Depression anxiety and a number of conditions. Granted a small amount of medical marijuana users benefit from the drug. 9999% are riding their coattails. This drug destroys lives. I will never get back what cannabis took from me. This isn’t some harmless feel good and god forbid your children use it or they could be doomed to a future of psychiatric drugging. I am currently on seroquel ativan and topamax due to marijuana so you can take our natural medicine and shove it up your ass. One day I may commit suicide because or “cannabis” so fuck norml
