TSA’s medical marijuana mix-up doesn’t discourage this guy
UPDATED: Sat., April 8, 2017, 9:06 p.m.


Cannabis users had a brief but intense moment of euphoria this week after the Transportation Security Administration seemed to give a green light to air travelers to pack medical marijuana in checked or carry-on luggage.

But the TSA’s apparent new acceptance of THC – which appeared on its website – went up in smoke almost as fast as news of the supposed change zipped through social media. In 24 hours or so, the TSA’s website went from green to red.

The agency said passengers are still not allowed to have marijuana in their luggage and blamed the website’s mix-up on a computer glitch.

Marijuana is now legal for medical or recreational use in 26 states and the District of Columbia, according to Governing magazine. But the drug remains illegal under federal law, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions, for one, made clear he wants to keep it that way.

So how do people fly (on an airplane) with marijuana that had been legally purchased in some states? Here to help is Joel Milton. Milton, a techie who grew up in suburban New York and then moved west for the Green Rush, is chief executive of Baker, a Denver-based software company that helps more than 300 marijuana dispensaries in 13 states market their wares. The following Q&A with Milton has been lightly edited:

Q: What do you make of the TSA website’s giving a temporary thumbs-up to medical marijuana?

A: I loved it. I mean, first of all, there’s no way it was just a random, data error. The reality is, the TSA was probably trying to do the right thing – or someone there was, and sort of acknowledging that, “Hey, listen, if you’re a cancer or a glaucoma patient who has medical marijuana, (this is how to pack it).”

Q: What makes you think the TSA meant to change its policy?

A: You know, people tweet at TSA all the time, right? And I’m sure, based on some requests from some very ill people who really rely heavily on cannabis to make it through their day – I’m sure they feel for those people and they probably said “Listen, you have a medical pink card, and you really need it. We’re not going to bust you.”

Now, unfortunately, when you put that on a federal website, and you have someone like Jeff Sessions as the attorney general … that’s why it was removed pretty quickly. I’m not surprised it got taken down.

Q: Given the business you’re in, do you partake?

A: I do. Yeah. Certainly, in our company it’s an interesting topic of conversation. We’re big believers in the plants. We think that everyone has the right to enjoy cannabis and use it however they see fit – as long as it doesn’t interfere with their workday.

Q: Does your business also advise cannabis users on how to travel?

A: Officially, all the advising we do is how to market your business… . That said, as a team of 27 cannabis enthusiasts who lived in four different states and who all travel very regularly, we know a fair bit about transporting cannabis across the country.

And what I’ll say is this: TSA says very clearly on their website that security officers do not search for marijuana or other drugs. That’s not their job, right? They’re looking for safety. They’re not DEA, they’re TSA… . That said, obviously cannabis is still federally illegal, so you have to be careful. And you certainly don’t want to flaunt it or rub it in their face …

Q: You don’t take a wrapped-up brick of weed on board, I take it?

A: Exactly. Here are some quick things you can do:

Don’t bring a liquid cannabis drink, like an elixir. We all know how good TSA is at finding water bottles. So the last thing you want to do is bring a liquid cannabis over 3.5 ounces. That’s an immediate red flag to the machines.

Don’t try to hide it. The TSA, those machines – they detect anomalies. And so if you were to try to shove it in a jar of peanut butter, it would look on the machine like something was hidden in the peanut butter, and they would pull it out and try see what it was, to make sure it wasn’t a bomb that was hidden in there. Or if you try to shove a vape pen in your battery compartment in your laptop, that’s going to raise a red flag, because it’s designed to find things that are hidden. That said, hide it in plain sight.

If you’re traveling with flowers, take them in an odor-sealed package. And just put it in your backpack along with other food items.

If you are uncomfortable with the thought of traveling with it, you can always eat an edible before you fly – although, I would say only if you’re very experienced. We don’t want anyone to have a Maureen Dowd experience where you’re trapped in a metal tube at 35,000 feet.

Q: Have security officials ever found your stash?

A: I have had my backpack searched several times, usually because I forget to take out a water bottle. On those times, I often have something hidden in plain sight that’s completely overlooked.

Q: Do you think the TSA will begin stopping people who have marijuana the same way they stop people with guns?

A: I don’t see it going backwards. Again, TSA lines are long enough. It’s one thing for a passenger to take his gun on a plane, and it’s another to take a little bit of cannabis.

Q: By the way, are you a member of the Cannabis Mile High Club?

A: Yeah.

Someone donated sixty ounces of marijuana to Goodwill

On Monday, Goodwill workers in Monroe, Washington opened a donated cooler and found five bags of weed inside. (That's 60 times the amount that's legal to possess in Washington.) If the donation was intentional, that's some very good will.

maybe they also had a hemp tax stamp that they turned in before donating the cannabis... we will never know because when you pay your hemp tax you go to jail!

Pot may be legal in Washington State under a lot of circumstances, but arranging to move large quantities of weed to Baltimore for street sale is not one of them.


According to charges brought by the local US Attorney's office, Seattle Police Officer Alex Chapackdee, 44, was engaged in just such a scheme with several other co-conspirators.


According to the SPD, "the officer was immediately placed on administrative leave without pay."

NASCAR steps in when driver shows at Kansas with pot sponsor

Carl Long was forced to strip the logo of a Colorado-based marijuana vaping company from his car Friday after NASCAR said it violated rules governing sponsorship and paint schemes.

The logo for Colorado-based Veedverks was plastered on Long's green and yellow No. 66 for tech inspection, but a NASCAR spokesman said it was never vetted and approved. And when officials learned of the hood logo, they had crew members remove it before the car went to the track.

east coast still gets the swag brick weed... probably not the west coast though... cannot wait for east coast Legal! Bring it on!

No sir, over here on the west coast the type of weed people call "bamer" or "boo boo" are still solid nugs with a mild but decent terpene/flavor profile and a decent coating of trichomes. All of the crazy top shelf weed over here is what most people are used to, the "mids" I get still test around 15% to 20% THC and get me very baked still. That stuff we get for $60 half all day. Its actually quite difficult to find actual brick weed here in CA, you would have to hunt down the poor soul dealing that shit lol.

I toke thee to be my wife: inside a cannabis wedding in California

It was a picture postcard California beach wedding. The bride wore white. The Pacific Ocean lapped at the altar. The violinist played Elvis Presley’s Can’t Help Falling in Love.

Then, upon being declared husband and wife, Zak Walton and Dani Geen inclined their heads, puckered their lips, closed their eyes and took long, deep puffs of potent cannabis.
