According to your scaremongering its happening on a huge scale yet I have not heard of a single example of it happening, please post some examples of people that have in the last 12 months been arrested as a result of using online dispensaries?
Nowhere have I said that arrests from using an online dispensary are happening on a huge scale.
Where did I say this? Please don't put words in my mouth.
What I have said, and stand by, is that cannabis-related arrests are still unashamedly happening on a huge scale, despite the ConCourt ruling from 3.5 years ago.
One doesn't need to look past the first page of a Google search to confirm this.
Now, ask yourself, why are people still being arrested?
It is because cannabis remains an illegal drug, in spite of what some seem to believe.
So, following on from this, would it then not be logical to assume that buying cannabis online, from a dispensary, whether for medical or recreational purposes (with the line being drawn in the individual consumer' mind), is also illegal? And if it is illegal, there is obviously some risk associated with making the purchase online and doing an EFT into another person's bank account. Surely?
If you think I'm being illogical, sincerely, please explain to me why, because I cannot see how a person could logically disagree with this.
It is the same principle as having a cocaine, methamphetamine or heroin dispensary online. All of those drugs are classified according to the same Schedule as cannabis and have the same punishments and penalties. Even though they are all infinitely more dangerous and habituating drugs than cannabis - our drug laws are not based on science, rather emotion, politics and capitulating to the United Nations' (various) Conventions on Psychotropic Substances.
To make it clear, I am not saying this is right, correct or just. Rather, it is wrong, incorrect and unjust.
But it is the reality that we sadly still face in this country.
To presume it to be safe because there have been no published stories of successful prosecutions is - in my opinion - foolhardy and dangerous. Just an opinion at this stage, but an informed opinion based on my knowledge of how the Drugs and Drugs Trafficking Act has been enforced since 1992. Bearing in mind the number of dispensaries popping up, it is only a matter of time before a low-hanging fruit gets plucked. And that is you or me. Charging monies for franchises (ala CannaPax) could very well be considered a crime under POCA, and is even riskier. Never mind their kak doob.
And that is why my message to everyone reading this, as it has been from a few pages back, is: please be very careful because you do not want to be the example. I am so relieved that there is no one who has encountered the law in this fashion yet and hope that it never comes to pass. But to assume it is 100% safe is inviting trouble.
I hope that clarifies some things?
