Unfortunately, as long as marijuana is federally illegal, any and all crimes that may occur at a dispensary would likely involve charges against anyone carrying firearms, including store personnel. Here in AZ, security is often outside the building, or in an entry area technically separate from the store area for this reason. Firearms + Scheduled drugs == increased federal penalties. -- Michael J. Ryan - tracker1@roughneckbbs.com ---
