DEA agents raid Four Corners dispensary
http://www.kbzk.com/story/32009555/dea-agents-raid-four-corners-dispensary
Even after being instructed by Pres Obama and AG Holder, Congress passed a law and a Federal Court declared that the DEA was NOT TO BOTHER MJ dispensaries in states where it has been declared legal… the DEA apparently has decided to continue with BUSINESS AS USUAL. Congress provides the funding for DEA’s operation… Is all of these mandates by the Administration, Congress and Federal courts being done with a “wink and a nod” ?
FOUR CORNERS –
A marijuana dispensary was part of a sting operation this Wednesday morning.
One of the operations took place at Montana Buds, on Zoot Way in Four Corners. DEA agents raided the business but would not allow us to photograph agents or the actual bust. Authorities would not release any information on why the raid was conducted because it’s an ongoing federal matter. Agents were on scene interviewing employees at the dispensary while we were there. This type of activity by the DEA is not something that has been normal in Montana for several years.
“This is absolutely not common in the last five to six years. There was a time period back in 2010 that there were a lot of raids,” said Eugenio Garcia, publisher of Cannabis Now Magazine.
DEA ignoring Congress and Federal courts on MJ enforcement ?

I noticed this raid took place in Montana, which basically has no more doctors left within the state willing to prescribe opioids for pain. In other words, the DEA couldn’t harass doctors within the state, so they decided to go after the largest marijuana dispensary within the state.
Why am I not surprised that this unconstitutional “law enforcement” agency that is continually allowed to thumb its nose at our constitutional rights feels as if it does not have to answer to anyone? Follow up to this:
“Representatives from Montana Buds Four Corners told Cannabis Now Thursday that no arrests were made” … “Local and federal law enforcement cut down plants and seized property for hours at the retail store in the town outside of Bozeman, and then left.”
“There’s a reason they showed up wearing masks and didn’t arrest anyone. We didn’t get raided, we got robbed” …
(Oh, and quite the interesting comment in the comment section that caught my eye – “I work at the hotel that these people who did the raid stayed in and the rooms reeked of marijuana. They had definitely been smoking in there. And federal agents cannot keep their evidence with them personally so why did it smell that way?!”)

The DEA is so self-impressed, they need nobody’s permission to do anything. They are above ALL laws. This is what they have come to expect and so far have been allowed to get away with. Their obsolescence has not yet been appreciated by society at large, so we must continue to deal with the workings of an organization’s 50 years of bravado.
They’re obviously a huge waste of tax dollars and a danger to law abiding citizens. The sooner the DEA is Dead, Ended, and Archived, the better America will be.

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,,KIM,,,,maryw
Once again the DEA does not have to answer for anything it does , they just cannot comprehend marijuana being legalized if it is there go all their toys the helicopters the SWAT vehicles and more than anything their seizures which I can only imagine is the cherry on top of the sundae for them .. and with marijuana being legal there goes their justification for a major part of their existence while people are dying from synthetic marijuana and other crap . And if marijuana is legalized I guess we’ll have to find a new gateway drug ? Let’s see maybe prescription pain pills ? Let’s have a couple of drinks of alcohol and think about this ?
ohh,,they’ll just go after more legitimate DOCTORS,,and willfully kill more physically ill humanbeings,,,,psychopathis sickos,,,not w/my dime!!!!!!!!!!maryw
We all need to write our elected officials and demand restructuring of the DEA! This was a serious case of insubordination by the DEA, and those involved along with those who ordered this raid need to be FIRED!!! In the military these agents would already be in the brig. This just goes to show everyone how much law enforcement in this country have gone BAT CRAP CRAZY. They all think they are untouchable and need to be proven wrong.
