* And Mundelein, where the new medical marijuana dispensary opened today…

* The Question: Caption?

(And I apologize in advance if you’re a Trump supporter or a medical marijuana patient. No offense meant. Just having a little fun.)

    Months before the primary’s up, but then I got high
    Now I’m free from politics, and I know why
    Because I got high, because I got high, because I got high.

    Comment by illini Monday, Nov 9, 15 @ 2:33 pm

  22. Those registered for medical marijuana cards are supposed to be kept confidential. Having your picture posted waiting in line is problematic to that effort.

  36. Trump will talk about job creation and taxes. While the medical cannabis industry has created jobs in many rural communities and will soon generate tax revenues for the state.
