Can I get a medical marijuana card in California if im not a california resident?
whitefangz1: You are not correct at all. I believe you are getting your facts confused. There used to be a federal medical marijuana program but George Bush Sr. ended that with the rise of the war on drugs. The federal government allowed the remaining (5-7) people continue to legally using marijuana medicinally. There are currently 12 states who support medical marijuana. Alaska, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington YES, the federal government does not recognize the states laws regarding medical use of marijuana. But the reality of it is, the DEA isn’t going to bust down grannies door for smoking a few joints for her glaucoma. They aim their sights at larger targets, such as registered growers and dispensaries or people who are known to possess an amount over the legal state limits. My apologies for the sidetracking. To answer the question. You DO need to be a state resident in order to legally purchase marijuan
