The Los Angeles Cannabis Coalition is holding a hunger strike and vigil to force Federal Officials to back off the club and provide medical marijuana to those in need. If you recall, the DEA closed them down back in October. Now they’re trying to take the building in which the Cannabis Coalition is housed. When Proposition 215 was enacted, California’s voters spoke. We want to provide medical marijuana to those who need it. AIDS patients have such a huge cocktail of drugs that it’s hard to feel hungry. Medical marijuana is a voter-approved law, and yet the DEA continues to take away the rights of the least healthy among us.


Hunger strikers include people who have cancer and AIDS, who desperately need food to keep their weight up and to keep the other medications down. Show your support at the corner of Gardner and Vista along Santa Monica Boulevard. Please call this number (323) 874-0811 in order to get in contact with the Los Angeles Cannabis Coalition. A rolling hunger strike is needed. Take a shift. Fast for a day.
