You might not like it, but they are finding the stuff.

Or, as Stalin put it, sometimes you have to break an egg to make an omelet.

The story goes that it started with a group of friends using the time 4:20 as code talk for when they would meet to smoke. The date is just the day that was picked to coincide with the original time used.

He doesn’t like private citizens having vests it also seems. Who needs items of self defense after all? The state is all-loving and benevolent.

As people start to grow their own food, I expect we are going to see a LOT more of this sort of thing happening. Indeterminate tomato bushes look nothing like marijuana.(At least from the on-line photographs I have seen.) Cucumber, pole bean, snow pea, squash and pretty much all culinary herbs in no way resemble marijuana plants.

A person can't eat marijuana and in my opinion, fruit bearing viable vegetable plants and culinary herbs will be worth much much more than marijuana in the near future.

Also from the story:
“I understand that a lot of people use hydroponic equipment for illegal ways, but that’s just like saying everybody who buys a gun is going to be a criminal and murder somebody,” the man said.

Actually you can. The seeds in particular are highly nutritious and contain a balance of amino acids in almost the exact proportions the human body needs. In parts of Nepal a butter is made from cannabis as a staple in their diet. It is non-euphoric BTW.

“Buying legal items and growing legal plants will now get you a visit from the police...Welcome to Germany circa 1935...”

I’ve posted a number of times on your threads, which I find interesting, because it gives me the opportunity to urge all patriots to get involved and elect a constitutional sheriff in your county. Should you elect such a person, you will be protected from state and federal fascist goons raiding your property because you grow tomatoes.

With an elected constitutional sheriff you can:

1) Keep out all unelected fascist cop pigs from your county.

2) Form up a 2,000 man auxiliary deputy battalion to protect your homes for “emergencies.”

3) Buy machineguns, mortars, hand grenades and armored vehicles.

Remember, the only proper peace officer for a free people is an elected sheriff accountable to the people via the ballot box.

Thanks for letting me give my pro-constitutional sheriff speech.

OMG! You mean that marijuana prohibition leads to criminal activity.

How on Earth could anyone have predicted that!

Just to dispel your assumption, I don't use.

Thanks for taking the time to describe the situation - this is the first I am aware of this distinction.

Remember Sheriffs are elected and answer directly to the voters.

Police Chiefs are hired/appointed by either a Mayor or a City Council and do not answer directly to the voters.

“Thanks for taking the time to describe the situation - this is the first I am aware of this distinction.”

Yes, sir. We have a constitutional sheriff in my county. We bought him a surplus World War II landing craft in case the bridge going to the peninsula falls down. He loves it.

An elected sheriff protects you, your property and your family from invasions by unelected Marxist cops. If you get a chance, try a constitutional sheriff in your county. You’ll be happy and sleep better at night.

And you prefer to allow a dope smoker to carry an illegal weapon he was trying to hide?

It is a sad thing when someone on FR is so desperate to promote drug usage that they display a complete lack of moral compass by siding with a person caught in a serious crime.
