This may sound like a dumb question...

When you sign something like this do you use your real 1st and last names? And if you used your real names would they send LEO after you???

I only use my first initial or my first name and my last name, but never give an address. Think LEO would have a hard time finding out who I am.:cool:

No offense, but this is the way the legislation looks each time medical MJ is addressed in Austin: :eek:

It won't happen any time in the near future.
