On Friday, U.S. Attorney John Walsh's office issued letters to the owners of 10 medical marijuana dispensaries in Colorado that are within 1,000 feet of schools notifying them that they have 45 days to shut down, move their business or face federal enforcement action.
According to 7News, the 10 shops that got the letters are in the Denver metro area and in southern Colorado.
Walsh's Aug. 3 letter is not going over well with medical marijuana advocates in Colorado, who have noticed that President Barack Obama will be making a swing-state stopover in Grand Junction, Colo., on Wednesday of this week. When he arrives, the National Cannabis Industry Association (who support the Colorado Patient Voter Project, which opposes "the Obama administration's attacks on Colorado's sovereignty and its medical marijuana laws") plan on greeting him with a billboard that riffs on the Romney attack that's currently become all the rage.
. . .
So, what school's students is Walsh stepping in to protect from the nefarious designs of medical marijuana dispensaries? The hilarious answer, contained within a redacted version of the Aug. 3 letter Walsh sent to the dispensary proprietors, is "specifically" the delicate and impressionable young minds of the University of Colorado-Boulder.
The irony, of course, is that without these dispensaries, one of your best sources for weed would be the students of the University of Colorado. (Maybe the Obama administration is just trying to protect the existing rents of the local "Choom Gang?")
