Dispensary Removes Pot-Smoking Santa Painting After Complaints

SAN PEDRO (CBSLA.com) — A medical-marijuana dispensary has removed a depiction of a pot-smoking Santa Claus after receiving hundreds of complaints.

The holiday decorations in the 1400 block of S. Gaffey Street were painted on the windows of the Harbor House of Dank in San Pedro last week.

The portrayal also included a picture of a snowman holding a prescription bottle.

The depictions, however, drew hundreds of complaints on Facebook and other websites.

By Tuesday afternoon, all the paintings had been removed.
