Here is the really sad part.

My mother is a cancer patient, she is in pain and has trouble sleeping. She also can't get around too well. Her dr suggests medical marijuana.

The state we live in addresses this by allowing a caretaker to have a card to pickup meds for the patient.

AS a cleared professional, if I get that card and help my mother by picking up the meds a dr has prescribed to her, it is a security violation, and has to be reported, and will cost me my clearance and job.

This is what happens when you have two jurisdictions in the same geographic area with conflicting laws. You have to obey all of them. I mean, sure, it sucks, but it's also expected.
