Isn't the even simpler explanation that dispensaries can't even open accounts, nor can the banks legally interact with them as entities because dispensaries are state-regulated and banks are federally regulated?

By "state-regulated" do you mean "breaking federal law"? Because that's my understanding, and what I was trying to say.

If you've ever wondered why they seem to be robbery-magnets, it's not because the customers are on the devil's lettuce. Met a dude in an airport who owned a bunch of dispensaries. After many drinks he told me he built a legit bank vault in the basement of his house to hold all the cash cause he can't deposit it. showed me pictures poo poo was intense he was also leaving on a cruise with his wife and her sister. a sex cruise. he was fuckin both of them found that out before the $$ weed vault

Honestly if they just told banks 'yo if you lobby the gov to make weed legal we'll give you a 5% cut' they'd have that poo poo passed in about 20 days

If you've ever wondered why they seem to be robbery-magnets, it's not because the customers are on the devil's lettuce. As someone who works in the AML part of banking I can confirm on the reasonable fear part, but with some qualifiers and background - banks aren't wholesale barred from banking dispensaries where they're legal at the state/county/muni level. There's actually a memo (search "Cole Memo Priorities") from the feds a few years back detailing what they're really concerned about, and it's mostly things you'd be concerned about with your run of the mill booze store - you don't want someone to be selling to minors, you don't want them to be operating illegally or involved with other crimes, etc. The feds still want regular reporting on the fact that they're a dispensary but with no actual allegations of suspicious activity if there are none. There's no expectations in the memo that a bank would just kick someone out due to being a legally operating dispensary, but that you would throw them out if they were operating afoul of the law. Though banks are worried about having to deal with investigations and all, but it's mainly due to the fact that dispensaries are a comparatively weak point for ingestion of currency into the banking system, and that includes heightened worries about money that isn't exactly clean, because of the state by state legality. If you're a dispensary in CO there's not an easy way to affirm that people aren't using your shop to purchase for transport into a state where it's illegal, which would then mean you're ostensibly commingling proceeds from the illegal sale (out of state, second-hand) with the legal sale (downtown denver to locals). Banks know that's a huge burden on them to monitor so they avoid the issue by refusing business from what's a huge industry. They know this but also know the risk and the labor burden of covering their own asses and at present it isn't worth it. If you try skirting the issue and lying about your business and you get found out, then that's going to be reported as suspicious. Moreso if you try operating a cutout business that "just does payroll" or "consulting" because then you're trying to obfuscate the source of the money. If you're selling to friends for an extra few hundred a week in spending cash just spend that poo poo for gently caress's sake.

Jesus loving christ, dumb people. /edit: Oh, hang on, WaPo did “Hey, everybody, if I go to f—— jail for life, you already know why,” she began, adjusting the camera so that it showed her younger sister, motionless and bleeding from the head. “My sister is f—— dying. Look, I f—— love my sister to death. I don’t give a f—. Man, we about to die. This is the last thing I wanted to happen to us, but it just did. Jacqueline, please wake up.” Another girl screamed in the background. “I don’t f‑‑‑‑‑‑ care though,” Sanchez continued. “I’m a hold it down. I love you, rest in peace, sweetie.

Why the gently caress don't people wear seatbelts? My junior year of high school some idiot flipped his Jeep while drunk. The two guys in the back weren't wearing seatbelts, and it ended exactly as you would expect.

Tomorrow is the big healthcare vote, the Motion to Proceed. Lots of talk about flying/bussing in McCain to be a 50th vote or prodding the doctor to let him make the trip. There's an interesting strategy that McConnell is taking. It is currently 6PM Washington time and Senators have literally no idea what they will be voting for tomorrow. There has been no bill text revealed. Reporters are asking Senators in the hallways if they even know what they're voting on and nobody has any idea. It is a straight repeal bill? Is it the BCRA? Will it get 50 votes? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ http://www.politico.com/story/2017/07/24/republican-health-care-vote-success-or-failure-240887 facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 23:07 on Jul 24, 2017 |

The other two don't because seatbelts are for pussies and they drive brodozers so they're basically just waiting to become a statistic. All of them have spouses and children.

Some idiot my brother went to high school with was driving drunk one night during his senior year. He gets in a low speed crash, his girlfriend gets pretty bashed up because neither of them was wearing a seatbelt. Wrecks the cartilage in her nose so that it's kind of hanging off her face, in addition to some other poo poo. So what does he do? He calls his dad, and they hose her off and dump her in her bed at home. Then start trying to formulate a way to cover up the crash. She needed a fair bit of surgery.

I had never heard of "brodozers", but the word is fascinatingly self-explanatory.

The other two don't because seatbelts are for pussies and they drive brodozers so they're basically just waiting to become a statistic. All of them have spouses and children. It's just game theory. You weigh the chance of an accident where a belt would make a difference times the cost of being in such an accident, against the guaranteed minor annoyance of having to put the belt on (plus the chance of getting stuck in fire, that's a good one), and you make your choice. ...oh yeah, that reminds me, John Nash, who did some of the most pioneering work in game theory, might still be alive if he had buckled up in his taxi.  him and his wife.
