KERN CRACKS DOWN ON MEDICAL MARIJUANA

Kern County supervisors tonight unanimously banned store-front medical
marijuana collectives in unincorporated areas of the county.

Pot workers, patients, caregivers and their attorneys in the chambers
erupted angrily and vowed to immediately launch a referendum to
reverse the decision and sue the county to block the ban from taking
effect in 30 days.

The biggest immediate impact of the supervisors' actions could be to
the large number of marijuana grows that instantly became illegal
after supervisors passed an emergency ordinance limiting the number of
plants that could be grown on any parcel to 12 or fewer.

Sheriff Donny Youngblood pledged immeditate enforcement.

"If I had a marijuana grow right now, I'd be cutting back to 12
plants," Youngblood said. "And I mean tonight."
