Thank you to all our members who supported Axis of Love and ASA’s efforts to get a statement from our State representative. Nearly 50 patients marched in peace in front of Nancy Pelosi’s district office in San Francisco on May 2nd. The driving force behind the efforts is the Patient Advocacy Committee of the SF Medical Cannabis Task Force, and the Harvey Milk LGBT Democratic Club. A lot of respect is given to the Axis of Love SF who co-sponsored the May 2nd rally, a call-in campaign and signed letters asking to save our sanctuary city. Representative Pelosi did not waver in her continual support of medical cannabis and safe access. The efforts of the patients in San Francisco allowed Pelosi the safe space politically to question the Obama administration.
Pelosi Statement on Recent Federal Government Actions Threatening Safe Access to Medicinal Marijuana
May 2, 2012
San Francisco – Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement today in response to recent federal government actions threatening safe access to medicinal marijuana for those who are seriously ill or enduring difficult and painful therapies:
“Access to medicinal marijuana for individuals who are ill or enduring difficult and painful therapies is both a medical and a states’ rights issue. Sixteen states, including our home state of California, and the District of Columbia have adopted medicinal marijuana laws – most by a vote of the people.
“I have strong concerns about the recent actions by the federal government that threaten the safe access of medicinal marijuana to alleviate the suffering of patients in California, and undermine a policy that has been in place under which the federal government did not pursue individuals whose actions complied with state laws providing for medicinal marijuana.
“Proven medicinal uses of marijuana include improving the quality of life for patients with cancer, HIV/AIDS, multiple sclerosis, and other severe medical conditions.
“I am pleased to join organizations that support legal access to medicinal marijuana, including the American Nurses Association, the Lymphoma Foundation of America, and the AIDS Action Council.
“Medicinal marijuana alleviates some of the most debilitating symptoms of AIDS, including pain, wasting, and nausea. The opportunity to ease the suffering of people who are seriously ill or enduring difficult and painful therapies is an opportunity we must not ignore.
“For these reasons, I have long supported efforts in Congress to advocate federal policies that recognize the scientific evidence and clinical research demonstrating the medical benefits of medicinal marijuana, that respects the wishes of the states in providing relief to ill individuals, and that prevents the federal government from acting to harm the safe access of medicinal marijuana provided under state law. I will continue to strongly support those efforts.”
Thank you also to the Americans for Safe Access for aiding in this campaign and garnishing a very impressive statement from the Alameda County Democratic Party. The ACDP unanimously adopted a resolution “decrying the federal raids on dispensaries.”
This has been a great week for the patients, activists and industry. More federal support and local political backing only further help the cause of safe access to medical cannabis.
Vapor pens are quickly becoming the preferred way to medicate.
Vaping has long been the safest way to medicate, easy on the lungs and 100% effective.
Vaporizers capture the most cannabinoids from the plant and none of the harmful carcinogens from combustion.
Atmos vapor pens are top quality and interchangeable with quite a few other pens.
We not only carry a large selection of pre-filled cartridges but two new pens: Atmos Express
Atmos Express Case
Inside this great carrying case lies the new Atmos Express Vaporizer.
Atmos Express Vaporizer
Repackaged and priced even lower than before. Not only does this case keep all your parts together, it has a space for a cartridge and keeps your pen from accidentally turning on. Nothings more embarrassing than looking like a man on fire.
And the new kid on the block: Atmos RAW Vaporizer
Atmos RAW vapor Pen
The Atmos RAW combines the best of both worlds…use pre-filled cartridges, omnicron refillable cartridges or…..now flowers. you asked for it and they have finally delivered, a multi-functional vapor pen. It’s lightweight so extra portable, USB powered, rechargeable and discreet. A must own for the all those looking to vaporize and cant use a plug in unit.

! ALERT !
To all our collective members,medical cannabis needs your support today!
Over the last few months we have seen five permitted dispensaries in San Francisco close due to threats of their landlords by the US Attorney Melinda Haag’s office. Last month, four more letters were issued; these dispensaries include some of the oldest dispensaries in San Francisco, as well as a dispensary that was over 1000 feet from schools, that had only been open a year. All of them were permitted by the city & county of San Francisco.
It’s time to stand up now, San Francisco; we have to send a clear message that San Francisco is united in support of medical cannabis. Despite the initiation tactics form the federal government, we will continue to support cannabis as a safe harbor city.
*Who:* Anyone outraged at the federal interference of Medical Cannabis
*What*: Rally, Press Conference, and Action
*When:* Tuesday April 3rd at 11am
*Where:* Polk Street Steps of City Hall
*Why:* If you don’t stand up to protect medical cannabis in San Francisco, who will?
San Francisco United is a coalition of patients, activists, permitted dispensaries, and concerned citizens who have joined together to promote the need for safe access in San Francisco. The federal government is using a series of tactics to shut down safe access across the state of California and the rest of the country. Safe access to medical cannabis is in jeopardy, and we need our leaders to take a stand for safe access!

Well no, I’m not calling for a coup but a full fledged revival.
We’ve got The Dead flowing and I’m calling for an upheaval.
I’m calling for a rebuild shelf with amazing strains, tested results and potent edibles that taste better than advertised.
Oh wait, that’s all here and happening right now…oh well, revolutions were not be televised anyway.
Back in:
Q master Kush (I)
Q’s Master Kush – We’ve been waiting patiently for some more of Q’s amazing strains to flood our tables. As his Skunk leaves us, this wonderful flower comes in. Indica and heavy, this strain has an aroma and flavor unlike any other. the only strain to complete with Soma A+ for Indica of the year last year. The user can expect heavy muscle relaxation, eyes to droop and a wonderful body calm to overtake them soon after.
also in:
Dutch Treat (I)
Dutch Treat – A hybrid of wonderful taste and punch. A mix of Jack Herer and Skunk delivers a fruity smoke with nice calming qualities. A perfect hybrid in that it showcases the best of indica and sativa, this treat will sail away quick.
We just celebrated our 7th birthday and in great fashion too.
It was a major party here on Friday and we thank everyone who came out and made it a special event.
We have proudly been able to deliver medicine to qualified patients for so long thanks mainly to the support of our members. Our party was a little thank you to them and those fortunate enough walk away with a free giga joint, I’m sure you felt the love.
Back in stock:
Plat. OG (S)
Platinum OG Kush – One they call for by name. Dense, sparkly, green buds make this flower a sight to see. The long-lasting sativa dominant effect makes it a favorite of many. Never disappointing, this strain is one to always have in case of emergency.If you don’t believe me, look at the platinum_og_report
also in:
Blueberry (I)
Blueberry – An indica with tremendous fruity flavor. Great muscle relaxation and pain relief accompany the wonderful taste. A favorite for those also needing a sleep aid this strain is around at a great price and won’t last long.

Ive already profiled CBD and THC, and today we will spotlight a video about THC-A
Back in and ready for you to see:
