    they have started up the spin machine it wont be too long before they start busting everybody, and claiming they are only cracking down on "Big marijuana"

    fuck the DEA and that bitch HAAG. never was anyone so appropriately named by providence.

    "marijuana in the hands of individuals who do not have a demonstrated medical need"

    also remember according to the feds there IS no medical need so therefore NOBODY has a medical need.

    never trust a lawyer. especially a federal prosecutor.

    good thing i dont grow possess or use marijuana. im all about the cannabis.
    So you don't think Harborside taunted the feds by all the media exposure and the TV show Weed Wars?

    jimmy hoffa junior was a known mob guy for decades as he climbed the ladder of success in the teamsters union, i guess he didnt taunt hard enough to get busted.

    ron carey funneled shitloads of cash into democrat campaigns illegally for years. it took a federal judge to finally put an end to his ":taunts" that still havent risen to the level of federal charges.

    the branch davidians lived on that same piece of land in texas since 1907, it wasnt till 90 years later that the feds felt "taunted" enough to burn them out.

    the freemen had declared their own nation like 10 years before, and refused to pay taxes and shit. it wasnt till the feds felt "taunted" that they decided to crack down on anybody who expressed disdain for federal power.

    new black panther party goons waving truncheons at whitey outside polling places wasnt "taunting" enough to bring federal action

    illegal aliens from mexico are still not sufficiently "taunting" to warrant some border security?

    the mexican cartels must have "taunted" Eric "cock breath" Holder into Fast N Furiousing some AK's down there.

    the us constitution makes it very clear that only natural citizens of the US can be president. the feds dont feel "taunted" enough to see obama's birth certificate yet. they sure got john mc mcains fast though.

    the feds get taunted real funny these days.

    well they are the government, empowered by us to act on our behalf. we also pay for their actions as well as empower them. value for money i say. more comedy per dollar than a ben stiller movie.

    Just because the state of California legalized cannabis, you don't put it in the face of the Feds and taunt them.
    Sure, Weed Wars was an entertaining show but it was stupidity on Harborsides part to pick a fight with the federal government, what did they expect?

    They should have just left well enough alone, Harborside and the self promoting celebrity Steve DeAngelo ruined it for hundreds of other dispensaries who were flying under the feds radar.

    My 02
    I don't think that Harborside ruined it for anybody but themselves. There are no licensed dispensaries that are flying under the radar. Hundreds have been closed in the last few years and hundreds more have opened up for business.

    The feds are playing a game where they try to get the most effect for the least amount of money spent. Very few dispensary owners or employees have been arrested but many threatening letters have been mailed to landlords promising forfeiture if they don't expel their tenants. The feds have just picked the lowest hanging, easiest fruit to harvest and now they will sit back and let the finger pointing and infighting begin again.

    Everybody that has a medical recommendation, or not, but is involved in the cannabis industry has picked a fight with the feds. We are all operating contrary to federal laws so it is not at all surprising that the feds are taking action.

    The end result of the feds activities will be a much better coordinated black market for recreational smokers and a tougher time for sick people who can really benefit from cannabis.

    People are already very, very tired of the Fed bullshit but being tired of the BS and doing something about it are two very different things.
