Federal drug officials are warning Georgia to shelve its plans to be the first state to allow pharmacies to dispense medical marijuana products.

News outlets report that the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration on Nov. 27 warned pharmacies that dispensing medical marijuana violates federal law.

    Fine, who would want Walgreens, Walmart and CVS to be where you get your weed? I would rather buy it at independent stores both for atmosphere and that large pharmacies are shitty companies in every way possible.

      Because it’s a prescription medication, just like any other. It’s far more convenient to pick up prescription just like you do any other.

      There will be far fewer dispensaries than pharmacies, so less choice, more driving, and worse hours.
