Police are narrow minded ignorant puppets for higher authority. I'm sure local police jump at the opportunity to help the Feds do something that state law prohibits them from doing (raiding clubs).

As far as club owners and employees having firearms to respond to these raids, I'm sure that pressure on dispensaries would increase tenfold if any of the raids became violent. The media would use that as an opportunity to say "See? They are criminals." The clubs would go down the drain in a quick second.

Most of the clubs that get shut down are either back in business shortly, or are replaced quickly by another. This is what we need to continue to do. Firm civil disobedience is the easiest way to say "We aren't criminals. And we aren't stopping."
