Legal Question in Criminal Law in Michigan

What would be the legal ramifications to a resident of Michigan who was the holder of both a Concealed Pistol License, as well as a Medical Marijuana Card? How about a state sanctioned dispensary, producer, club or distributor? How would an individual or entity avoid running afoul of the law when it comes to legally owned / carried weapons and medical marijuana? As I understand it, on the federal level you could be looking at both drug and weapons charges if you mix the two. What about on the state level? Thank you for your time.

From time to time, I've used the reasonable man approach in responding to legal questions rather than rely strictly upon the law.

This leads me to answer the question "Should a reasonable man want to be in the company of an armed individual who is under the influence of marijuana?" ...NO!!

As a matter of personal preference, should you be taken into custody under the conditions described in your post, I would like to be the prosecutor.
