In yet another attempt too harsh SF's buzz, word is the Drug Enforcement Agency is here (as of 4 p.m.) doing a bust. According to an anonymous email, "I just went by [unintelligible] dispensary on Howard and 12th [street] and they are being raided right now by the DEA. My phones down. Get the word out por favor."
There is a cannabis club on Howard, so that's probably the place. More info as it comes in to us.
Update 4:55 p.m.: The raid is happening at Emmalyn's California Cannabis Clinic at 1597 Howard Street. Also, there seems to be some sort of joint protest going on at said club against the DEA. So, you know, leave your baggies at home, crack- and pot-heads.
The Marijuana Policy Project send out the following press release today regarding the raid in progress.
(Check out the press lease after the jump.)

Armed federal agents are raiding medical marijuana dispensing collectives in your area as I write this. If you are able to, please head down to the site of the raid to denounce it. Others are already on site protesting this injustice!

As details become available, MPP will send out a more detailed alert. If you are able to join the protest against the raid now, please do so immediately. (This e-mail was sent at approximately 4:30 p.m. PST on March 25, 2009.) Also, please read our follow-up alert to learn the details of this latest federal assault on California's medical marijuana law and how you can help stop future raids.

Hey, wait, I thought these sto-... oh right, business as usual with the DEA. "We listen to our boss if he says what we want to hear, otherwise <static>What's that, sir? You're breaking u-<static>
Although, I'd loved to have been able to warn all the protesters to conceal their identity because you can bet your ass there was at least one non-uniformed agent videotaping them. SOP for these fuckers.

I feel kind of silly now thinking these things would actually stop. I was hopeful that things were finally headed in the right direction. I knew I should have stuck with cynical, but I am just so ready for things to make sense.

The world is like a ride at an amusement park- thrills and chills and it's very brightly colored and it's loud and fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "Don't worry or be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride" But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? But it doesn't matter: It's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want.-BillHicks.

Obama didn't say all the medical marijuana raids would stop, just the ones on people who complied with state law.
It appears as though this dispensary may not have been paying taxes.
Quote:
A source in San Francisco city government who was informed about the raid said the DEA's action appeared to be prompted by alleged financial improprieties related to the payment of sales taxes. DEA Special Agent Casey McEnry, spokeswoman for the local office, would not comment on that information.
