San Diego Medical Marijuana Rally - Nov. 3

[User]

Urge the Mayor to participate with the Task Force

Rally will be held in front of 202 "C" St. San Diego CA 92101 - 9am -
11/3/2009

Come out on Tuesday, November 3rd 2009 at 9am and urge the Mayor and Chief of Police to participate in the Medical Marijuana Task Force.

The San Diego Medical Marijuana Task force met on Thursday October 22, 2009 for the third time to deliberate on regulations for the operation of medical marijuana collectives and cooperatives in the city. Some of the issues discussed were security, lighting and operating hours.

The Mayor, Chief of Police, District Attorney or any of their representatives were nowhere to be seen.

In San Diego we have a "Strong Mayor" government in which the Chief of Police and most other pertinent city departments report directly to the Mayor. When the task force was formed, Mayor Sanders made it clear that his office will not participate nor will they send a representative to listen to the task force.

Although urged by the City Council and hundreds of patients, the Mayor, Chief of Police, and the District Attorney still have all refused to work with or participate in the task force. Urge the San Diego Mayor (Jerry Sanders), the Chief of Police William Landsdowne, and the District Attorney's office to work with the newly formed San Diego Medical Marijuana Task force rather than continue to add to the environment of fear perpetuated against patients in San Diego.

If you can't come out to the rally on Tuesday, please call the and urge the Mayor Chief of Police and the DA to sit down and work with patients, rather than refuse to help or participate!
