PROPOSAL BY: Payne Lionheart

GROUP NAME: RX

TYPE: Cannabis Club

SLURL: Teleport

BACKSTORY: First - I have never seen a cannabis club here or on any other sim I have been to including some of the larger ones - Insilico, Concord, and Giano. I have had the itch in the back of my mind to open one on an RP sim for quite a while but never felt comfortable proposing it other than DE. The basic lay down would be to incorporate the CC near the hospital if possible or in a rural area that is run out of a legit business setting. Not some house. This building would hold a couple back rooms. One would be fairly large enough to be considered the "grow room". The second room would be an appointment room where you would be accessed by a 'licensed doctor' ICly that will scribble up a legit "Green Card aka GC" - this will be made for indivduals who "pass the exam". Ya can't be giving out GC cards to everyone... The front room setting would be almost like that of a salon style. You will have side by side counters that will hold a couple registers. Behind these will have the latest products. - I will make a brochure of the latest and greatest weed in the nation currently stocked - Also, on this brochure you will be able to put in an order via 'smart phone app' // call-in // internet order // (No appointment necessary for orders - NPC is always there 😉 (Brochure will be made as well so people can actually see it not just RP it) The other side of the building - across the counters will be a set of smaller counters that will hold 'edibles' - various baked goods, incense, and other hemp goods and devices. - Hooka parties may be held 🙂 This will be a clean and sanitary, controlled-temp environment - something a little different from what the streets house outside. Inventory will be monitored on a twice-weekly account - Monday and Thursdays (This may switch based on weather conditions - trucks and staff - and the availability of the specific buds. Shipments come in once a week - get your buds while they're in. Some of the best don't last. I want to this to be DE's place of Zen.

UNIQUE: I feel that this would be a beneficial business to the community that can promote much RP for the police, criminal, and RPers needing the herb. The environment is more laid back and sanitary. The idea is to make this comfortable and relaxing to RPers who are in need of the herbal treatment which can be given to those that may have cancer, suffering from chronic pain, central nervous system damages, or other such ailments. It's the opposite of chaotic and may be used to treat others at the Asylum and perhaps some competition for Mind9Light. But - if you are caught not having your GC card on your body at all times and the cops see you 'trading your goods to others on the street' - you may be subject to jail time... (play Jaws theme) I would like to have a spot advertised in the paper of the CC. I will have a drop box inside the building of applicants who wish to acquire a Green Card and then personally make one for those who pass the exam. I'm hoping to have a turnaround for these in 1-2 days.

EXP:Understandably being quite new to RP (7 months) and DE (less than a month), I have been on SL since 2006 - So, I am not a stranger to the workings around RP sims. I know my hemp and would love to be able to RP this heavily into DE, and I've been there in real tough times with people in my RL who have needed this to help them. With this knowledge comes a cool-headedness, reliable and responsible, understanding character. I have no problem laying down the smack when it comes to people acting like a fool over this - Trying to come in and bully their way to get a green card, or MULTIPLE attempts to ROB or STEAL the plants and equipment. This is a medical field business and will be run like run. Customers will be treated with the utmost respect and care like they would in other medical related facilities. I will make RPers love to be in my shop and to be in a place where they can come to be treated and taken care of with herbal goods, knowledge, and respect. On another note - I like my drama, like I like my shots - in small doses. I understand that drama comes up from time to time - but I don't escalate it.

IDEAS:I want to bring to DE the knowledge that marijuana is not a bad 'drug'. It is used to help many upon many people overcome pain and suffering and can hold meetings or print ads on the knowledge of how good this can be for your body and how not to abuse it. I would like to house "Hooka Parties" where RPers can come and try out the brand new stocks. Since marijuana is such a big fuss in RL from time to time - I find that this will be the 'talk of the town' with fellow citizens who are all about this or all against it, and we can RP this out accordingly. I would love it if this were to happen - Newcomers come and get all fired up about how laid-back this city is with the drugs running amock, not just in the underground but out in the open now. Some RPers may 'picket' the club or police and/or Big Pharma may come in and try to shut it down - because it's hurting their other operations (Mind9Light for example).

OTHER:It would be great for people who do get addicted to this - perhaps someone can start Drugs Anonymous..??? There could be a raid by unknown groups from time to time that could attack the club - stealing the plants, the cash, and the goods - but it's all covered under insurance so can be built right back up. And I don't need it to be raided everyday - I'd say anywhere from 2-4 months is 'okay', but it doesn't need to be that timeframe either, and the depth will vary from a thief stealing some buds to the whole place being destroyed. Police could start arresting for the concealment or trade of drugs to other GC'ers/non-GC'ers that do not have their cards on their bodies - thus entitlement to more point buildup! Woohoo!
