DEA reported to have raided vending machine collective in LA

I haven't seen a news article on this yet, so I can't link to it.

The DEA raided a collective in Los Angeles today, confiscating vending machines that made national media headlines earlier this year. Witnesses said DEA agents hauled machines out of the Herbal Nutrition Center on La Cienega Blvd., but there was no word on arrests or what else might have been taken. One observer said the facility appeared to be closed when the incident occurred.

The raid was over before advocates could mount a response. This is the latest "smash and grab" DEA action – one in which agents quickly confiscate patients' medicine and cash before protesters show up.

I agree. Why aren't they out busting meth labs?

Fuck Nixon for creating this useless branch.

Waste of taxpayer dollars.

...was that the DEA agents hit Californis in the summertime because it is too hot to be in Afghanistan that time of year and they'd rather be working in beautiful California than a hot war zone.

just a rumor among some club owners last year
