Santa Cruz Fumes Over Medical Pot Bust
Santa Cruz officials are fuming over yesterday's pot club bust in which DEA agents arrested the clubs' founders and confiscated plants used by terminally ill patients. The club has operated with the support of the local authorities for years.
After the seizures, a few dozen people blocked the road demanding the return of the plants as DEA agents tried to depart. DEA called in the local cops to help.
"... some local police officers were irritated by the federal agents' actions. 'What a bunch of babies these DEA guys are,' said one disgusted Santa Cruz officer, who did not want to be identified. 'They're up there with all these agents, but they see a bunch of pot-smoking sick people on the road, and they have to call us for help.' "
