After investing tens of thousands of dollars, Tepel argued it will take years to recoup his investment.
Tepel believes his shop in a strip mall with tinted black windows was targeted because it was on a busy street and not "in the hood or in a back alley."
"We're not tatted-up drug dealers. This is a family run operation," said Tepel, who is scheduled to be arraigned Monday on one count of felony possession of marijuana with the intent to sell. "I don't want to do anything to jeopardize my future, my family's future. We didn't deserve this."
Without regard to the issue at hand, it is interesting to point out that liberal drug laws are, generally speaking - a leftist cause or issue. How is it then, that leftists are so quick to advocate the supremacy of federal law over states law, except, whenever they happen to disagree. Consistency is not a “hobgoblin”, as if trite cliches mean anything.
Don’t they have some cough syrup they can stop being from buying?
What a waste of resources.
Heh, good luck on that one. My pothead co-worker here in L.A. got a prescription from another lib doctor and there are more of them in Universal City close to the studios, all lined up. I guess closing down pot shops is much more important than hunting down illegals..
But when you have a self describe coke head as President, wha'ca gonna do?
