The OC Register posted news of talks to place a ban on medical Marijuana dispensaries in Huntington Beach, CA. It seems the city council is worried that a pot club would bring violence and other ills to their city, here's a snip from the article:

The council will vote tonight on an ordinance that bans the dispensaries from opening in the city. Huntington Beach is one of several cities that in the last several years has shied away from an 11-year-old law enacted by voters that allows medical marijuana dispensaries to open and operate in the state.

Huntington has no medical marijuana dispensaries. The closest legal medical marijuana dispensaries are located in Los Angeles.

Mayor Gil Coerper said he believes there are better alternatives than medical marijuana to ease the pain of illnesses. He said medical marijuana dispensaries can promote violence.

Violence? I doubt it.
