Riverside: Laying Safe Access to Rest

Date:
Thursday, August 16, 2007
Time:
4:00 PM - 6:00 PM
Event Type:
Vigil/Ritual
Organizer/Author:
Location Details:
Lime St. between University and 10th St.

Attention all local patients! Join us at a Public Demonstration in Downtown Riverside.

We will be having a public demonstration on Thursday August 16th from 4PM to 6PM on
Lime St. between University and 10th St. We hope to have enough people to span both
intersections.

We will be having a funeral procession to essentially "lay safe access to rest" here
in the IE. The public demonstration will be in mourning & preparation for those
patients in the Inland Empire who have been left to die or waste away with no
medicine. It is in mourning of those patients who will soon become non-functional
once again because they have to manage their pain with prescription drugs.

We want to show the County Board of Supervisors and the District Attorneys office
what their actions are going to do to the patient community. We want to urge them to
change their views on medical cannabis and work with us to regulate it and allow
safe access to medicine for medical cannabis patients in the Inland Empire.

Please dress in black and try to bring a candle as this will also be a candlelight
vigil. You may also wish to bring any posters or signs you feel would be
appropriate. Bring any Halloween decorations symbolizing death (i.e. Skeletons,
headstones etc.) because that's what Riverside County & the County DA has
essentially prescribed the patients by going against their doctors recommendation
and taking away their medical cannabis.

Remember to mark your calendars for Thursday August 16th from 4-6PM so that you can
attend our public demonstration on Lime St in Riverside between University Ave. and
10th St.
