LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday adopted a ban on growing cannabis in unincorporated areas of the county, including Quartz Hill, Littlerock and Lake Los Angeles.
Effective immediately, the ordinance bans the cultivation, manufacturing, laboratory testing and distribution of medical marijuana for 45 days, while zoning officials study the impact of such activities.
Supervisor Michael Antonovich recommended the study and related ordinance in February in light of state legislation that sets up a regulatory framework for medical marijuana.
Antonovich said growing cannabis increases trespassing, burglary and violent crime.
The county has banned medical marijuana dispensaries in unincorporated areas since 2011, using its zoning laws to enforce the prohibition.
Until now, there has been no ban on related activities.
When first proposed, the ordinance drew protests from those who said they grow their own marijuana to help themselves or relatives manage painful and debilitating illnesses.
On Tuesday, just one resident asked the board how he was supposed to cope given the ban.
Without comment, the board adopted the ordinance on a 4-0 vote, with Supervisor Sheila Kuehl abstaining.
Kuehl has said that people with prescriptions for medical marijuana — legal under state law — should be able to have access to the drug.

The War on Some Drugs is the wet dream, permanent employment, gravy train for cops, prison employees, and elected leeches known as politicians. They are, have, and will continue any and all efforts at sensible reform of any drug laws. These society-suckers are the enemy to all of us, more dangerous than any drug or drug dealer ever could be, and should be treated and dealt with as the enemies that they are.
Tim Scott says
Agreed on all points.
realitycheck says
^^^^^^Spoken like true criminals!
AVSUX says
Spoken like a true baton polishing slave, realitycheck. Let me guess; you’re either a prison employee, married to a prison employee, related to a prison employee, a cop, married to a cop, or related to cops? You’re all the same.
Mike says
We get it, you dont like cops.you dont have to be mean to people who like cops.
AVSUX says
Hey Mike, wanna know what’s really mean? It’s arresting and caging another human being for something that isn’t even any of your god-damn!d business. It’s destroying lives, careers, families, enforcing laws designed by politicians and enforced by cops to pack jails and bring in revenue. You know, the things cops do for a living with a smile on their face while they’re doing it.
Tim Scott says
Why? You like cops, clearly. And you think it is an excuse to abuse anyone who isn’t a fellow baton polisher. Why should anyone exempt you?
As for Speculation Check, he’s just making stuff up, as usual.
Michelle Egberts says
@Mike… Don’t bash Tim Scott as he is only telling the truth. Obviously you failed Government/History class and don’t remember the U.S. Constitution and the first Amendment. .. Freedom of Speech.
Remember this Mike, criminals have rights post-conviction and there are more than a handful of dirty cops. I should know as some of them are my clients that sought the services of my company, AV-East Kern Second Chance.
gregory hernandez says
hmmm “baton polishing slave” that says a lot when you read between the lines
Mikey says
I agree michelle more then a handfull.ok, so one million a day do there job.the prison are 85 percent minorities, does that mean all are bad?and you are right, I can bash tim any damn time I want, 1st ammendment, remember.you cant preach the constitution, then demand someone to shut up.
AVSUX=NOUSUK says
@AVSUX: Let me guess; you’re either a prison inmate , married to a prison inmate, related to a prison inmate, a crook, married to a crook, or related to crooks? You’re all the same.Dirty. We are better than you. Your parents brought you up incorrectly.
Tim Scott says
Funny part is, it’s really easy to be married to a cop and a criminal at the same time, since that word “dirty” is so easily applied to badged thugs.
What happened to Baca and Tanaka again? How long were they running a skofflaw army in their LA County kingdom? How many badged thugs said “hey, what about the law?” And how many said “whhheeeee, let’s crack heads and do as we please?” Looks like a whole lot more of the latter, and frankly NONE of the former.
Michelle Egberts says
BOTTOM LINE… YOU CAN’T VIOLATE THE LAW TO ENFORCE THE LAW AND THEN TRY TO COVER YOUR BACKSIDE WITH A REPORT FULL OF BS! NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!!!!
And by the way, I am a former offender who went to prison in 2005 and my business partners are all retired law enforcement.
Mikey says
I think I get the thread now, everyone who has violated the law, on here, hates cops.how does it go again, oh yea.its not mine.i was holding that for a friend.i didnt do it.the cops framed me.etc.etc.etc.prisons are full of cop hating, innocent victims.all cops are bad, yada, yada, yada.
Tim Scott says
So Baca hates cops? Tanaka hates cops? All their little minion cops hate cops? Mikey, you stopped making sense.
This is the problem with you baton polishers. You are so busy defending every cop, every time, that you never stop to consider how silly they are making you look.
Michelle Egberts says
@Mikey… I have never stated that I hate cops… only the ones in my trials that got caught multiple times lying on the stand including Mayor Parris and Lee D’Errico.
It’s unfortunate that they abuse their authority and think their above the law…NOT. Don’t have to look too far down to LA, “TOP COP BACA”, Tanaka and all the others that tarneshed the badge. Doesn’t it say “Protect and Serve” on their cars…
AVSUX says
NOUSUK, nice try, but FAIL. I’m no angel (nor would I want to be), but I have never seen the inside of a prison. For one, in a country that incarcerates more people than any other society, becoming a “criminal” only requires refusing to be a slave. The U.S creates laws with the sole intention of creating a criminal class, hence the War on Some Drugs and our world class prison population being a perfect example.
Elmer Fittery says
I was in prison for grand larceny in the 60s. Actually what I did was take a car for a ride. I got seriously punished with a 2 to 14 year sentence and spent about 2 years in the slammer. Got out and went home, went to college for computer science at UCLA. Got a job and earned a lot of money and paid a lot of taxes. I thank the California and the US for making going to college possible. This is not possible now…
Putting people in jail for marijuana offenses is really stupid. Big waste of money and a waste of people’s potential.

A key U.S. Senate panel voted to increase military veterans’ access to medical cannabis on Thursday.
By a bipartisan vote of 20 – 10, the Senate Appropriations Committee passed an amendment that would prevent the Department of Veterans Affairs (V.A.) from spending money to enforce a current policy that prohibits the department’s doctors from filling out medical marijuana recommendation forms in states where the drug is legal.
The move is “an important step in restoring complete health care options for veterans,” Scott Murphy, president of Veterans for Safe Access and Compassionate Care, told Marijuana.com in an email. “With 22 daily veteran suicides, to include self-immolation on V.A. property, and an opiate epidemic that is effecting the veteran population in higher numbers than the civilian population, it is about time our politicians caught up with the populous views of American voters and take medical cannabis seriously.”
The measure, sponsored by Sens. Steve Daines (R-MT) and Jeff Merkley (D-OR), is attached to the Fiscal Year 2017 Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Bill, which now heads to the full Senate.
Last November, the Senate approved the 2016 version of the spending bill, with the medical cannabis language attached, but the provision was not included in the final omnibus appropriations package signed into law by President Obama in December.

Growing marijuana encourages burglary. Bikinis increase sexual assaults. Shiny shoes increase robberies. Being a corrupt politician that gets drunk at night is the path to take!
Mike says
“Medical” marijuana is a scam. It has no medicinal value. If you’re sick take medicine. The MJ addicts just want to get high and live off other people, either by committing crimes or leeching off the taxpayers in jail or on welfare.
Good job Supervisors!
home owner in the AV says
you are a very un informed person as to the usefulness of Cannabis as medicine.. and clearly have drinking alcohol and being high on prescription meds confused with this subject matter in regards to crimes committed … Cannabis clearly motivated Bill Gates.. and a few Olympic Athletes.. so yeah.. go do some research before making statements that hold no weight in anything other then being a closed minded obviously highly medicated person..
BAD JOB Supervisors
Time to Vote in some new .. cuz these ones are corrupt and in the dark ages..

WOW.. Go read a book… Medical MJ is no scam, but BIG pharma is and sadly the uneducated diptards such as yourself think what they say holds weight but it does not.. what is at play here is corruption nothing more so like I said go read a book and become a better person cuz if you get cancer and when the chemo doesn’t work you will run to find some cannabis and because of your ignorance supporting corruption you will not have a natural proven cure or natural not body damaging medication available to you.. you and people like you make me sad..FYI my mom has cancer, and was quickly losing weight she was 68 pounds when she reached out for help and I got a hold of cannabis made her things she could eat and now at 89 pounds she can walk her dog and she still goes to work..she’s not out robbing your sorry a..ss nor has she ever been to jail..but thanks to corrupt supervisors she will be deemed a criminal if caught helping her health a natural PROVEN way.. that’s wrong on every level and so are you.. so stick your comment where the sun don’t shine you ignorant meat sack ..

Pharmaceutical drug side affects: more drugs/death
Pot side affects: sleep/ appetite
Mike says
LOL! Probably 95% of “medical” marijuana is used by people with no medical condition (other than MJ addiction).
Side effects of MJ: lung cancer, unemployment, apathy, laziness, impaired judgement, loss of reasoning ability, memory loss, traffic fatalities, leads to use of heroin, meth, cocaine, etc.

@Mike.. clearly it takes more than a double digit IQ to understand the proven effectiveness of Medical MJ .. and to that I say sorry about your luck and that the no child left behind format clearly left you way behind.. you Sir are a very ignorant person and so bitter that it tells me you live alone with lots of newspapers by your side.. good luck popping pharma meds and clearly having turned into a useless person.. enjoy your beer and soggy pretzels .. it’s sad to see what alcohol does to a person.. the bitterness is so clear.. they have support groups for people like you especially in the AV go find one and seek help.. it’s call AA

yeah that’s why my mom worked at NASA, I graduated college and Bill Gates just sat home doing nothing..that’s why there are numerous cases of proven benefits of cannabis oils helping not harming people with autism, it has helped cancer patients be able to consume food and there’s more.. but I am afraid your brain is unable to expand and absorb information at such a level.. and sorry about your luck..you’re a idiot… and clearly have no job .. you would be a much better and calmer person if you just inhaled once in a while.. the meds you are on aren’t working and you seem unstable and likely have or will hurt someone with your temper.. cannabis patients work and work hard.. not everyone just sits around condemning other’s with no FACTS to back them up.. MJ is medicine GOD’S GIFT.. Big pharma is poison with a Nazi history back ground.. guess you missed history class too..

Here’s some actual information – not just incoherent pothead babbling. It’s from a UC Davis study “Persistent cannabis dependence and alcohol dependence represent risks for midlife economic and social problems: A longitudinal cohort study,” Magdalena Cerdá, et al. Clinical Psychological Science, online, March 23.
They found “A research study that followed children from birth up to age 38 has found that people who smoked cannabis four or more days of the week over many years ended up in a lower social class than their parents, with lower-paying, less skilled and less prestigious jobs than those who were not regular cannabis smokers. These regular and persistent users also experienced more financial, work-related and relationship difficulties, which worsened as the number of years of regular cannabis use progressed.”
They also found “Our study found that regular cannabis users experienced downward social mobility and more financial problems such as troubles with debt and cash flow than those who did not report such persistent use,” she said. “Regular long-term users also had more antisocial behaviors at work, such as stealing money or lying to get a job, and experienced more relationship problems, such as intimate partner violence and controlling abuse.”
“Economic and social problems persisted in long-term, regular users of pot even after the authors accounted for other potential differences between regular cannabis users and other study participants, including socioeconomic problems in childhood, lower IQ, antisocial behavior and depression in adolescence, higher levels of impulsivity, lower motivation to achieve, criminal conviction of cannabis users, and abuse of alcohol and hard drugs.
“These findings did not arise because cannabis users were prosecuted and had a criminal record,” said Caspi, a psychologist with dual appointments at Duke University and the Institute of Psychiatry at King’s College London who is senior author of the study. “Even among cannabis users who were never convicted for a cannabis offense, we found that persistent and regular cannabis use was linked to economic and social problems.”
Mike says
Speaking of information – check out this study from UC Davis: “Persistent cannabis dependence and alcohol dependence represent risks for midlife economic and social problems: A longitudinal cohort study,” Magdalena Cerdá, et al. Clinical Psychological Science, online, March 23.
They conclude that long term cannabis use causes downward mobility and antisocial behaviors.

One conclusion from the study:
“Our study found that regular cannabis users experienced downward social mobility and more financial problems such as troubles with debt and cash flow than those who did not report such persistent use,” she said. “Regular long-term users also had more antisocial behaviors at work, such as stealing money or lying to get a job, and experienced more relationship problems, such as intimate partner violence and controlling abuse.”

And if you are saying your mom was a pothead and worked at NASA, then you are a liar
Tim Scott says
Mike, you unfettered spewer of accusations…
Guess what!
There was a time not too long ago when drug testing was a grotesquely expensive thing that NO ONE did. Not NASA. Not the US Navy. Not every employer with a job opening. Not ANYONE.
When the Navy got ready to introduce random drug testing they offered a program where anyone who came forward and “admitted a drug problem” would be exempt from disciplinary action. Wanna know why? Because they KNEW if they just started doing the testing they were going to wind up with three quarters of the navy ineligible to perform their duties and have to just weld all the ships to the piers.
So take your accusations and shove them deep into the darkness where the sun don’t shine…if there’s room to get them around your head.

i for one am grateful…because now the LACO BoS are in the open as to how far they will go in taking our rights from us…and how dangerous they are to our rights as Americans. for those who are against medical cannabis and believe that the actions of the BoS are just…remember medical cannabis was accepted, approved AND VOTED ON BY We the People and sooner or later later THEIR ACTION IN DENYING THE MANDATE OF THE PEOPLE WILL TURN ON YOU. and when you start screaming you will hear “everyone is equal and when it was done to medical cannabis patients…you said nothing”
Jason Zink says
All this does is allow the Sheriff Dept. the right to come on your property at anytime. We all know what happened to 80 year old Littlerock resident Eugene Mallory who sheriff thought was growing and wasn’t, he was invaded and Shot dead early in the mourning!

I delivered too all the pot shops in Victorville for years until they were banned by San Bernardino County, even to a so called medical doctor that wrote prescriptions for 80 dollars, funny thing not once did I ever see anyone walking in suffering from cancer, AIDS,etc. All I saw was men and women from the ages of 18-40, if its such a miracle drug then why cant it be bought at Rite aid? If someone is on the verge of death I say give it to them but the 18- 40 year olds that are lazy and was able to be diagnosed with back pain, cataracts, ADHD and crap is just BS.

You were part of the corrupt system in place by delivering but you still complain. Guess that paying job of exploitation didn’t feel too wrong . You only stopped when they were closed!

Good job Supervisors! Marijuana makes people into unmotivated dullards who end up being supported by taxpayers either in jail or on welfare.

This comment is as ignorant as this ordinance. If cultivating and distributing cannabis is bringing violence and trespassing then next we should target liquor stores who are robbed nightly. If the people can not control themselves dumb it down for them? How about we allow those who need to self medicate to do so with out interference.

dullards. ive been involved w MediCan for over 2 decades. mike you world be surprised at how many Drs., Lawyers, comp engineers, cops and politicians are MediCan patients. it is narrow minded and foolish to think MediCan patients are “dullards”. we are actually bringing about beneficial change to OUR country and your comments seemed more geared toward name calling and hate speak rather than thoughtful dialogue. its too bad that a major political party in this country has degraded to that. besides if you choose to remain adversarial in the issue don’t you think its unwise to underestimate what they are capable of?

It is way past time for Antonovich to retire or be voted out for his reefer madness views that are out of touch with reality among other things he has no clue about. He would rather have people take pharmaceuticals which are bad for your liver and body than use a plant that offers relief from chronic pain. My primary care Doctor recommended medical marijuana as a way to get me off pain pills which were damaging my liver to the point it was no longer functioning properly, it has been eight years since I started using medical marijuana and although i am in pain daily I am able to function much better than when I was on all the pain pills. I now have to spent an extra 45 minutes driving in my car, which increases my pain, to get the medication I need thanks to the powers that be banning all the shops in unincorporated LA County. And although I do not grow my own due to the cost of electricity required to grow indoors it now is illegal for me to grow my own in the privacy of my own home? Ridiculous
home owner in the AV says
causing trespassing crimes huh… well what about all the store robberies like liquor stores.. and wal mart should be shut down cuz it attracts shop lifter’s.. the city council’s in the AV are so backwards and handicapped mentally to think a cancer patient growing a few plants is going to add to crime in the impoverished s*%t hole of a town .. the only one’s committing trespassing crimes are the AV Sheriff’s.. personal experience right there.. and they didn’t even apologize when they go to the wrong house ready to tear it apart.. cuz they think they are above everyone.. time to move and let the rats have their hole.. they would rather turn felons loose from their local prisons free on our streets then back up voted in legal medical cannabis.. at lease Orange County and the city of Adelanto see the light of the future and look out for the tax payers.. so sad the leaders of the AV only care about themselves.. welp here’s to hoping each one gets cancer and suffer’s terribly from chemo that doesn’t work.. from my mouth to God’s ears, get your heads out of your a..sses… and out of the dark ages and get your hands out of the pockets of corruption..
