Los Angeles Times, 26 Jul 2012 – My friend’s chiropractic business in the San Fernando Valley shares a wall with a medical marijuana outlet. On entering her office, the place smells like a skunk got in there. Longtime patients have since gone elsewhere for their treatment. Medical marijuana advocates insist it’s their right to distribute their product without considering how it affects the community. Their self-righteousness sounds very much like that of the National Rifle Assn. and antiabortion activists.
