ACTION ALERT! -- Help Those Arrested in Chino

Friday, April 2, 2010
Good afternoon,

As we are awaiting information in regards to those still in custody from the Chino raid, here are a few ways you can help.

1. Below you will find a list of the phone numbers and the emails of the San Bernardino Board of Supervisors. We need to light up their phone lines this afternoon and fill their in boxes this weekend with requests for regulations, not raids!

2. This morning, both the San Bernardino Sun and the Daily Bulletin posted articles (Links Below) about the Chino raid, and the aftermath. There have been multiple negative comments posted since then. We need to reply with positive responses and make sure our voice and opinions are heard. Remember-Regulations, not Raids!

We will keep you posted on pending court support. Actual arraignments have not occurred yet but may happen as early as this afternoon or as late as Monday morning.


Spread the word, we stand together.

ACTION ALERT:
From Ryan Michaels, Yes-We-Cannabis

Good evening Inland Empire,

Today we have received multiple reports from patients and several individuals with personal relationships with the operators of San Bernardino Patients Association, Chino, CA indicating that the facility has been raided by San Bernardino County Sheriffs in conjunction with Chino Police.

At this time it is unclear what parties are still being detained but initial reports were that two operators, five employees, and eleven patients total had been arrested.

Additionally, members of law enforcement have setup a checkpoint in the parking lot and are stopping, searching, and arresting as many as eleven patients. We have not been able to get to the location of SBPA to confirm this checkpoint, anyone with photos or confirmation should
contact info@yes-we-cannabis.org ASAP!

The Inland Empire medical cannabis community can not stand idly by while patients are being detained - safe access to medical cannabis is a provision of the law. I hope to have more news to share soon and I am grateful to those who have been helpful and able to offer us this valuable information.

Sincerely yours,

Ryan Michaels
