With more locations appearing in the state, Konschuh said, “Unfortunately, these places become attractive nuisances with thieves.”

 

 

I suppose pawn shops and liquor stores don't?

 

Could just require them to carry insurance against theft ..

 

Banks must be really bad places ..

These new 'stores' may be the only thing that keeps Genesee County going.

 

A friend of mine sells real estate in the Flint area. He says you can't give a house away inside the city limits.

Yah, there are some shops I hadn't heard of; new one coming to Burton.

I love the one in the old LEO mini-station.

 

Also, some very good intelligence for folks doing P2P: Don't use I-75 exit 106 for meetings:

 

Grand Blanc Police Lt. Stephen Hill was surprised to learn last week from a reporter about a website listing “Exit 106 Grand Blanc” as the delivery location for dispensary Medical Mitten.

 

“I have not heard of that. I would like to see that,” he said.

"A shocked Flint city councilman recently even found one in a former police mini-station."

As for the replies, it's always the same people posting (Sageofthepage) with the same old tired arguments.

This reporter contacted me to ask some questions. Fortunately I was out of town and didn't get back to him by his deadline. I was pretty amused by this article. The first half is spent making the point that dispensaries are a concern because they operate so discretely most don't even know they're there. Then, the second half talks about how they are a concern because they attract crime to a community. What? Can't have it both ways. If the business is operating so discretely that most don't even know its there, then how can you really say its drawing in extra crime?
