Peaceful Protest In Montebello, CA - Oct. 8

Good day, folks... or bad depending on how one wants to interpret the news. Anyways, I got this little tidbit in my mail today and thought I would share. Anyone in, near or commonly coming to Los Angeles County for their medicinal needs should definitely take note and make an effort to be there.

Stay safe, pilots

Please join Americans for Safe Access (ASA) for a peaceful protest in front of a training luncheon hosted by the California Narcotics Officers Association (CNOA) entitled "Eradicating Medical Marijuana Dispensaries in the City of Los Angeles and Los Angeles County" in Montebello on Thursday, October 8. It is very important that patients let local law enforcement know that we will not stand by while they indiscriminately close legal patients' associations. Get the background and details on the ASA discussion forums. I hope to see you there![/FONT]

damn, i'm not in cali but good luck with that....

I hope they don't bring out the riot police to start pushing and shoving you guys around, to then say you started a riot. I've seen it happen. They start the pushing and shoving and hitting in a peaceful assembly, and then tell the news they were controlling a riot.

Marijuana prohibition is a jobs program for all the various kinds of cops, judges, court and jail system parasites.
The substance is irrelevant, demonizing freedom of choice over your own body will always be wrong, that's why the "war on drugs" is lost. Yet the enforcers continue to commit criminal acts of violence against people that harm nobody.

People in New Hampshire are trying to change that with civil disobedience... google Keene New Hampshire Marijuana and see what they are doing up there. Lots of activism and public 4:20 smoke outs , it's spreading to Manchester and other cities too. If this goes viral...whoa.

Didn't mean to hijack thread (above) good luck with protest in Cali. If people in Cali and NH are getting it done, how about
the rest of the country chiming in?
