This was in San Diego county, where there are several pigs who lie whenever they are talking about pot. So don't believe the 41,000 plant number.
These same pigs were duped by the makers of the documentary "In Pot We Trust," to allow them to film one of their raids. The pigs found some plants from their helicopter, and landed to chop them down. At first they said there was one hundred plants, then they changed it to 5 hundred. Then as they continued they changed it to 1000, then 5,000, then 10,000. When they were finishing the chopping they said there was 20,000 plants!
Don't believe the pigs lies!
And if you haven't seen In Pot We Trust, be sure to watch it.

yea, i never trust the cops numbers. why is it that every time they make a bust the talk about the street value as like 10 times what it would really be. cops bust a grow with 40 plants and say it has a street value of $200,000. it's insane. they busted a guy with 5lbs the other day and said it had a street value of $50,000. what, are they breaking all 5lbs down to dime bags?This was in San Diego county, where there are several pigs who lie whenever they are talking about pot.

Total weight of the pot divided by whatever they figure a joints weights then times the price of a one joint purchase = Street value in the D. Not sure if that is true or not.

I refer to busts like this as Exhibit A when I remind people that MMJ didn't really change anything in medical states.
This was an illegal grow.
That cannabis was, in all likelihood, destined for the black market. Otherwise it would not have made the news.
In a perfect world, there is not a valid reason, save tax evasion, why that crop would be seized.
Re-legalization, people.
That is the only solution for us.

I did state later that it was a tad bit over the limit. I bet the police still have the best pot. Do police have the risk of random drug tests?

The fact that medical states even have a limit is both comical and horrifying to me; at the same time.
My point is there should be no limit whatsoever. Re-legalize it.
Personal consumption? Donate to cancer patients? - no problem.
Make a living growing and selling it - pay the requisite taxes.
End of story as far as I am concerned.

I've smoked pot confiscated by a cop, he left it on top of the trash for a friend to find when he was staying there. They were old classmates. My friend rarely smoked so he called me to come over to my house and burn it down as he didn't have a piece of his own. Maybe it was just because of the way he acquired it but it was damn good smoke! We laughed our asses off that night

you forgot one thing: the onerous and burdensome regulation.
if i didn't grow my own, i would certainly want some way of knowing what i was buying aside from some stranger's word.
i would love me some taxation and regulation.

I know a guy that carries 3 different kinds, the brick, the mid, and the highgrade. I know the grower of the highgrade and go directly to him most of the time. I tell my buddy that he shouldn't even carry the brick b/c we know its from az and all that may imply. I told him I won't contribute to that violence, which is one of the main reasons I ended up at riu learning to grow my own.

The burdensome regulation goes hand in hand with taxation.
Sometimes you must shake hands with the devil.
I honestly did not feel the need to mention it because I understood the connection to be obvious.
