| Medical Marijuana Issues Persist !!! |
| Good Day to all............Well, the "cat and mouse" game taking place between medical marijuana dispensaries and local government agencies took another dramatic turn this past Thursday here in Los Angeles. In an excellent article appearing in the Los Angeles Times today, reporter John Hoeffel writes of city prosecutors suing 3 collectives and moving to evict 18 others in an aggressive movement to rid the city of "pot shop owners" who are masquerading as drug-dealers. The exploitation of these operations has been a problem since the State first began issuing these dispensary licenses in 1995. However, with the tough economic climate, these businesses have become increasingly "shady", to say the least. Of the 21 dispensaries mentioned as being targeted by LAPD, all were reported on by local citizens who complained of apparent and blatant violations. A very powerful reminder of community indeed !!!! I personally don't have a problem with a few of these dispensaries operating around L.A., as long as they're professional and properly run. But to see the city issue 500 of these licenses and then wonder why they have so many rogue operations is typical and sooooo big government. I encourage all to read Mr. Hoeffel's article on page AA3 of todays L.A. Times. |
