Marijuana Crackdown in Southern California as Feds Move to Take Assets of Four Dispensaries

the feds are worthless pieces of crap ,the politicians and lawmakers are the biggest crooks we the people are the biggest idiots for allowing these morons to tell us what we can or can not do wake up people put an end to the elected dictators that have ruined america and leave the harmless pot smokers alone.

Since these shops are technically illegal on a federal level, not many law abiding citizen would dare to open one up.  The only people opening these shops up were people who don't respect the law much.  Many, but not all, of these people had bad intentions from the beginning.  Many law abiding people have been waiting for the law to be clear to get into the business but what is now clear is that this is not a business for people who wish to follow the law.

The statement made by the operator of Otherside Farms is falsely stated by that of the city inspector, where there was originally a proposed plan to help resolve the city's budget deficit.  Instead the city inspector reports that the Otherside Farms operator boasted about making tons of money.  They should really look into their books and see that there is no money being profited and what the REAL intentions of Otherside Farms were, that is to help resolve the city's deficit, while at the same time helping the poor and sick.  http://othersidefarms.com/blog...

The facts are not correct. Otherside farms is one of the few compassionate dispensaries out there and they truly care about the people. To hear from the Otherside Farms point of view, you can go to their link below.

What a tragedy. You would think the DEA would go after the sleezy, under-the-counter, non-law abiding, half ass "dispensaries" that seem to be everywhere, nowadays. I am a member of Otherside Farms and have nothing but absolute good things to say about the employees, the establishment and the medicine. The establishment is extremely classy and clean. The front desk staff is friendly and courteous. The staff in the back are beyond knowledgeable, incredibly helpful and have genuinely fantastic customer service skills. The owner, Chadd, is warm and welcoming with a niceness that comes from deep within. He runs his collective with the utmost care regarding safety and sanitation and he believes in education and knowledge when it comes to the medicine he provides. His prices are BEYOND fair (cheaper than "street" value), especially for the quality of his product. The customers I have seen in the shop come from all walks of life. From business men in suits, to hippy chicks, to soccer moms like me and we ALL feel comfortable, welcome and appreciated. I don't know where I'll go for my medicine, now as I don't think any other collective comes close to comparing to Otherside Farms. I'm deeply saddened for Chadd, his family, his employees and his patients.

Otherside Farms is a dispensary that was doing all the right things. Out of all the dispensaries this is one that should have been left alone. So now people are going to have to meet in public places like the old days. As it gets closer to November, I bet Obama will "promise" again not to go after collectives. He won mostly based on the youth vote and he's not going to have them next election. 

what pieces of shit! let em go after the cartels! but whats easier than finding pot in a store front when the dept of justice gave the cartels automatic weapons. how much more are we going to take? 

Rights without freedoms...what a deal!  

Whether we like it or not, millions of people are consuming cannabis daily, and the justice system neither has the will nor the resources to find and prosecute all of them -- especially when marijuana use causes so little obvious harm. 

Considering these facts, the real question is whether we'd rather have consumers purchase their cannabis in licensed stores that pay taxes and ID customers -- OR -- have them buy it in high school parking lots from violent, Mexican-cartel linked drug dealers who often sell cocaine and heroin alongside the pesticide-tainted "marijuana" they offer. 

Which option do you think is best?

this is the same thing as happened at the end of the last prohibation  ...they are robbing people of what they can as fast as they can before there is no more cannabis being illegal.

Dear DEA;Go back to laundering cartel money,,and see if the CIA needs more drugs to distribute,,perhaps you can help the ATF carry guns to the cartels.

Or perhaps you could have the pharmaceutical companies double the amount of Tylenol added to any opium based pharmaceuticals,,since your last effort did not kill enough people.

Absolutely Ridiculous.... Try a Crackdown on Crack instead of a plant..  Basically the masses addicted to crack, heroin and crystal meth, are sick and need help to deal with their disease,  but the Sick and Dying of cancer and other types of physical illnesses are criminals...

Can someone explain this to me?

Its whatever i'll still get my trees just now the gov won't get any taxes from it. Their loss. Works for me. God bless the pot dealers of the world.

Keep on wasting all the peoples money on something that the people voted yes on is sooooooooo lame !!!!! They could make all kinds of money with these shops ...Who cares if you dont like the shops just dont go to them and let the patients get there meds!!!!

Silly Feds. 

You can take the weed from the dispensaries, but ya can't keep the medicine from the people.
