Ferndale Raid Underscores Silliness of Drug War (Opinion)

Submitted by dguard on
Darrell Dawsey reflects on the logic of the Oakland County Sheriff's Department raiding a medical marijuana dispensary mere days after the City Council of Ferndale, Mich., lifted a moratorium on medical marijuana businesses in the Detroit suburb. Their actions are in defiance of the will of the City Council and the majority of voters in the state. It seems especially odd given the U.S. Department of Justice said it won't prosecute marijuana dispensaries that abide by state laws.
