Operation Green RX Police Entrapment

by Hope Unlimited
Police entrapment of medical marijuana collective. Operation Green RX changed to Operation Endless Summer to disguise focus by San Diego DA
<b>Watch June 1st Hope Report - Green RX</b>

Host Aaron Klein brings you the story of operation Green RX. An effort by local law enforcement and DEA to entrap and arrest all the collective grows who would deliver medicine to a valid patient in San Diego.

A navy house was set up with surveillance so federal jurisdiction could be included. In November of 2008 a series of medical marijuana patients were filmed delivering medicine. Watch a collective member deliver medicine to an undercover cop on surveillance video!

In February the DEA dropped out of the investigation after federal policy on medical marijuana made an abrupt 180 degree turn. The SDPD and District Attorney's office were left alone to finish the operation. They hastily changed the name to Endless Summer to disguise the focus. They then added some arrests for hard drugs, never mentioned the words, medical marijuan, and went with their bogus story to the media.

Of the dozen plus medical cannabis patients charged with felonies, five of them are going to trial. Eugene Davidovich is one of the most vocal of these five. Watch him speaks out at city council for his rights. He then joins Aaron to answer a few questions for the Hope Report.

This story is infuriating. They are wasting our money to harass law-abiding citizens.

If you want marijuana to be legalized, taxed, and regulated for adults, YOU can make it happen. Tell your legislators to support California Assembly Bill 390. It's easy. Visit yes390.org

I AM OUTRAGED AT THE NEEDLESS WASTE OF TAXPAYER MONEY THAT IS CONSTANTLY SPENT IN SAN DIEGO TO TARGET MEDICAL MARIJUANA! THE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND THE DA’s OFFICE LOST THEIR MULTIMILLION DOLLAR BID TO OVERTURN THE STATE MEDICAL MARIJUANA LAWS!
How much more of our taxpayer dollars were wasted with this latest “operation”. The fact that it has already quickly been proven that the District Attorneys Office has been lying to the public should serve as a strong indication that they cannot be trusted to uphold our laws or spend our taxpayer money. The District Attorney and the San Diego Police Department can create their own job security by arresting whoever they want when they want. The more people they arrest, the more clogged the courts, the more crowded the jails.
AND ALL THE MEANWHILE THEY ARE LAYING OF TEACHERS!!! Vote these people out of office any chance you get! Get rid of the mayor! Get rid of the DA. Vote Bonnie out of office! Send a clear message to these people to quit wasting our money!!!
We are 100% volunteer and depend on your participation to sustain our efforts!
