Is there a crime shown?
No, there isn’t any crime shown because based on the film, at that moment Marijuana was becoming legal in California. On November 5, 1996, California's medical marijuana program was established after the state approved Proposition 215 (also known as the Compassionate Use Act of 1996). So basically, it is not legal but in many ways, it is still a crime shown.
What type of crime (from Module 6) would it be? Why? This is consensus crime because it advertises stimulant to people. I think stimulant is very dangerous.

The city of Oakland was one of the first cities to jump in, in terms of how to license dispensaries, to limit them not too close to a school, not too close to each other, not to create a district, those sorts of things.

The state law measure failed, and it's against federal law. The city of Oakland wants to license the industrial production of cannabis.

Did anything else surprise you?
Thing surprise me is Oakland City Council license large-scale marijuana production. We all know marijuana is very dangerous. Many countries in the world do not allow their citizen to use, sell or produce
