SACRAMENTO, CA - More than a dozen demonstrators gathered outside of Pres. Barack Obama's Campaign headquarters in Sacramento Thursday evening.

They were protesting the recent crackdown by the Obama Administration on medical marijuana dispensaries.

Obama's administration originally said it wouldn't interfere with medical marijuana distribution as sanctioned by the state.

However, when the federal government began shutting down pot shops in California and across the country, the Justice Department angered many medical marijuana advocates.
