Laff............!!!! This makes me laugh

This story was in one of our morning newspapers today. Marijuana Milkshakes! Oh dear
...not for me and I know it's against the law and all....but rotflmao!

Cafe Busted...

The owners of the Kindred Cafe said yesterday they intend to fight police allegations they were selling pot-laced milkshakes, hot chocolate and baked goods.
The Breadalbane St. coffee shop was closed yesterday as workers cleaned up after a police raid late Thursday. They said expensive furniture, plasma TVs, tables and chairs were carted away.

Two club employees were charged with trafficking and five patrons for possession of marijuana, police said. The accused are scheduled for court appearances next week.
Const. Tony Vella alleged undercover officers purchased marijuana-laced milkshakes, hot chocolates and baked goods inside the club. "Officers observed patrons consuming marijuana in a back room," Vella added. "This investigation stemmed from complaints from the community." He said several thousand dollars were also seized under proceeds of crime laws."These types of businesses are illegal," Vella said. "It is an infraction of the Criminal Code to possess or sell marijuana ..."

Cafe spokesman Chad Cooke, 38, said the popular club sells organic fair-trade coffee.
He said patrons can bring joints and light up in a tent on the roof. He said many, like him, suffer from ailments and have permits to use marijuana for medical reasons.
"A lot of our customers are medical users," he said. "The atmosphere in here is controlled and safe."

Cooke said customers can use marijuana at his club, but they can't buy it. "We don't sell marijuana," he said. "Other people can bring and use it in here."
"We have been here for three years and there has never been a problem."
