Americans for Safe Access, a medical marijuana
advocacy group, is calling for rallies in 15 cities and eight states on
Thursday to protest Department of Justice attacks on the MMJ industry,
ASA said Wednesday.
Protesters will gather at Obama’s Tucson office, 4639 E. 1st Street,
at 5 p.m. today to presumably wave signs, shout and generally chastise
the Choomer in Chief for shutting down some very respectable and
successful businesses in MMJ states in recent years. Rallies are also
planned for Phoenix, Denver, Seattle, San Diego, Oakland and Washington,
D.C.
"Over the past three years, the DOJ has conducted more than 200
SWAT-style federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) raids on
legitimate medical marijuana businesses in at least 6 states – at twice
the rate under the Bush Administration – and indicted more than 70
related to medical marijuana," the ASA said in a news release.
So bring a sign to wave and tell the prez what you think. Mr. Smith plans to attend. See you there.
