Dear Mayor Robertson; Jul 30, 2014
My name is Blaine Barrett
I am a Medical Marijuana Advocate
and Ethical Critic from Surrey BC
My nom de plume is TheSmeeGoanGuy
I have blog named: Medical
Marijuana with TheSmeeGoanGuy at
For the past couple of years the
City of Vancouver and the Vancouver Police Department have been held in high
regard for their tolerance of Medical Marijuana. We felt there was recognition
of our needs for medication and all of us who need it were grateful. Now the
stupid bastards of the VPD have raided and driven out of business; the most
reliable and reputable Medical Marijuana Dispensary in Vancouver. Their service quality and
knowledge out of the 45 Dispensaries allowed to operate that is only matched by
the BC Compassion Club. The rest are profiteers out for a quick buck selling
crap that has no medicinal value.
The loss of Jim’s is the loss of the
lowest priced source of Medicinal Cannabis for all his customers and the best
informed counselor as to its use for a variety of ailments.
I have attached for your
consideration the farewell note to the customers of the Dispensary. Read it
with disgust. The cops were stupid, rude and aggressive, There was no need for
the physical attack on Jim when they entered and there is no justification for
the removal of a customers money and refusal to return it. Straight goddamned
theft from a cop that his buddies will swear never happened.
To my knowledge they found nothing
to support their allegations of illegal sales to youth or to unlicensed
customer when they made the raid. Why then did the vicious sons-of-bitches
remove all the shit they seized. Without any arrest for a crime they emptied
the store to prevent its reopening and they succeeded. If they had left all the
material they seized the store would have reopened the next day and all that
they would have to do was apologize for stupidity but we would still have a
source of supply that we could afford.
The cops intentionally removed
anything that would enable a reopening of the business and now we all have to
buy from shysters like The Medicinal Cannabis Dispensary next door at 880 E.
Hastings.
I would have liked to chew out Jim
Chu but he’s in hiding and I can’t find an e-mail address for him so I simply
copied the complaint box at VPD with this communication. You may not even even
known this was in the works but its your city and its your top Cop who
authorized the raid. He should have known better than to send the Goon Squad
I’m not going to say more. Read the
attachment for a first hand account of how the bully boys acted out of control.
They showed a complete lack of respect for Jim, his staff, but more importantly
his customers. Why was it necessary to remove the customer’s legal medication
before they were allowed to leave? They were all licensed or Jim would have
been removed under arrest. They not only stole money they stole the customers
pot. It almost made me sick. I hope it does you!
Disregards
Blaine Barrett
