"In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." "When you are right you cannot be too radical; when you are wrong, you cannot be too conservative." "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." All quotes from Rev (Dr.) Martin Luther King, Jr. May I honor his words through my actions.

Suggested talking points include:
1. The City Council and Planning and Land Use Management Committee should reject the City Attorney’s flawed ordinance, and instruct him to write a new version based on the existing ordinance in Los Angeles County and incorporating the input of the working group convened by the Planning Department in 2007.
2. The City Council and City Attorney must move quickly to adopt sensible regulations before the Interim Control Ordinance expires.
3. The California Attorney General published guidelines in August of last year that state that a storefront facility maintained by a legal patients’ collective to provide medicine to its own members may be legal. The City Attorney has ignored this position, and treats all storefronts as illegal.
4. Sensible regulations will allow for legal concentrates of cannabis and edible preparations, which are essential to patients who can not or will not smoke cannabis. City staff should enforce the terms of the ICO to prevent the proliferation of unregistered storefront collectives, which may cause undue alarm in some neighborhoods.
