Energy Drinks Killing Teens Yet Medical Marijuana Remains Illegal

Category: Culture | Posted on Fri, March, 23rd 2012 by THCFinder

There is a limitless number of substances that kill people every single day and they are all 100% legal. Now you have Marijuana which is still ILLEGAL and has yet to cause a single death directly. American's and people across the world see the medicinal benefits of marijuana so why doesn't our government? Do they want us thinking they are truly that ignorant, or is it they are so big and powerul they just really don't care what the people want anymore? I'll let you decide on that.

lthough there are no recommended or “safe” levels that have been experimentally established for caffeine, most researchers and clinicians consider 100 to 200 mg of caffeine per day to be moderate intake for an adult. Pediatricians recommend that children and adolescents abstain from all stimulant-containing energy drinks.
 
In one study, bar patrons who consumed alcohol mixed with energy drinks were 3 times more likely to leave a bar highly intoxicated and were 4 times more likely to intend to drive while intoxicated than those who did not consume alcohol mixed with energy drinks.
 
Statements of US Attorney Melinda Haag, as to why the Justice Department was suddenly concerned with Berkeley Patients Group and other medical marijuana dispensaries:
 
(SF Weekly) ”When a dispensary comes to my attention that is close to a school, a park, a playground or children, that’s a line I’ve decided to draw.”
 
“There is a belief, backed by facts, that marijuana operations are often times the victims of criminal activity,” she added. “Armed robberies at dispensaries, armed robberies at grow operations, and people who are nearby are at risk [to wit: school children] as a result of that.”
 
Never mind that there haven’t been any such dangers at the dispensaries Haag is working to shut down.  Never mind that some of these dispensaries are in San Francisco’s Tenderloin District, where there are strip clubs, porn shops, massage parlors, taverns, liquor stores, and open-air heroin and crack markets are closer to the schools than any of the dispensaries.  My God, won’t you just think of the children?!?  We can’t let them get the wrong message that marijuana is somehow medical and not as harmful to them as we say!  We must clamp down medical weed!

Feds seize marijuana in Calif. pot dispensary raid

Category: Dispensaries | Posted on Fri, March, 23rd 2012 by THCFinder
Another sad day for medical marijuana patients in the So Cal area where raids continue to happen each month.
 
TEMECULA, Calif. -- Federal agents have raided a Southern California marijuana dispensary, seizing 19 pounds of pot and 117 pounds of edible items containing marijuana.
 
Drug Enforcement Administration agents served the search warrant early Thursday at Temecula's Cooperative Patients' Services.
 
There were no arrests.
 
DEA spokeswoman Sarah Pullen tells the Riverside Press-Enterprise ( http://bit.ly/GHO6yU) that agents served a related search warrant at the Lake Elsinore area property of dispensary founder Douglas Lanphere.
Some 50 marijuana plants were confiscated at that location.
 
Federal documents claim dispensary sells marijuana to the public for a profit.
 
Lanphere says he resigned his leadership post at the co-op and is now a member. He lives in Oregon.
Operators of the storefront dispensary have been embroiled in a lawsuit with Temecula over the Riverside County city's ban on marijuana dispensaries.

LA marijuana dispensary workers join labor union

Category: News | Posted on Fri, March, 23rd 2012 by THCFinder
Marijuana dispensary workers in Los Angeles have joined a labor union to fight for their jobs in an industry that the federal government considers illegal.
 
Workers at 14 pot shops have formed the "medical cannabis and hemp division" of the United Food and Commercial Workers, Local 770. The 35,000-member union also represents grocery clerks, pharmacists and health care workers.
 
"This is the next step in professionalizing and stabilizing this new sector of the health care industry," Local 770 President Rick Icaza said at a news conference Thursday. "This is a positive step towards successfully integrating compassionate care into our system of health care."
 
Los Angeles currently caps the number of medical marijuana dispensaries, but the City Council is considering a full ban in light of a court decision that limits its ability to regulate them.
 
Icaza said the union would use its considerable political weight to pressure officials to find an alternative to a total ban.
 
That help will be welcome, said Yamileth Bolanos, president of the Greater Los Angeles Collectives Alliance, which represents dispensaries.
 
"It's time to bring in some big guns," she told the Los Angeles Times ( http://lat.ms/GQqPfS). "Not only are they threatening access for patients, they're also trying to take jobs away from our employees."
