Police Raid On California Marijuana Shop Caught On Video

A raid on a marijuana dispensary in Long Beach was caught on video showing officers smashing surveillance cameras and stepping on a suspect, moves that prompted accusations against the officers of excessive force.

More than a dozen police raided THC Downtown Collective in the 300 block of Atlantic Boulevard (map) on June 19, officials said. The video was posted to YouTube by user “Long Beach Raids” on July 1. Officials said they learned about the video on July 3.

The two-minute-long video opens to show a man surrendering to police, three of whom surround him while two put him in handcuffs.

  • This should send a clear signal to Liberal progressives that the Democratic Party (who have run California for the last 25 years) and the current administration (Obama, Holder, Napolitano, etc.) support authoritarian police state liberty crushing tactics as much as the GOP but unfortunately like the European Jews of the 1930s they will march willingly towards slavery.

    Tobacco is subsidized by the Federal government to the tune of $billions in tax dollars AND anti-smoking campaigns are also fede More..

    • @Moore Slayer ganja itself doesnt kill, but everyone in their sane mind knows that inhaling smoke isnt good for your lungs. But who the hell smokes weed 1-2 pack a day, like some tobacco smokers do?? And you cant make cookies from tobacco! =)

  • I am almost to the point where in stead of saying "some people say that marijuana should be legal", I say "The People have said that marijuana should be legal."

  • They must not have been paying "street tax" to the cops that patrol the area.

    • @xerodfx you couldn't be more right, the marijuana dispensaries are most likely cutting into the police chief's profit.

    • @wtfman If they aren't arresting people for possession anymore, that's loss of revenue. That's why it will never be legal on a federal level. Don't you dare take scotch from a politician though! That's perfectly legal. LOL

    • @xerodfx Back about 2002 I seen a off-duty LBPD in full uniform collecting 'street tax' from a prominent small business near the aquarium. The 'tax' was disguised as a 'charitable fund raiser' and was equal to the daily profit of the business - the manager was a buddy of mine. The owner told him 'when the LBPD asks for $$ to give it to them.' Another good reason CA is a good place to be 'from'.

  • Wonder what the cops were planning on doing in there that made them destroy the surveillance cameras. They had full access to the place. Why not shut the recording off? What didn't they want anyone to see them do?
