I know they have been buzzing areas for decades with airplanes and infrared imaging but those usually only catch the larger grow operations.

Recently in an area not too far from me, the sheriffs' department got some new drone quadcopters and are having a field day busting small residential homeowners inside the city limits with only a few potted plants on their back porch.

"The sheriff's office says it will continue to ramp up it's drug eradication efforts by use of drone operations, K9 interdiction, patrol highway drug interdiction operations and help from the public in the form of tips."

Here is a picture of the biggest plant they got off the streets, thanks to tens of thousands in taxpayer money we are now all safe in our homes again.

Smh what a friggin waste. The time and cost to find it, arrest them, tag it, prosecute them, send them to jail, and then have a probation officer when they get out.

let's see the alternative solution: Make it legal, tax it, tax the growers, the government makes lots of money. They save on average 60k a year for everyone not arrested. Those who have to buy can do it safely with trustworthy people, weed that you know what your getting, and dont have to run around hiding.

Not to mention it's almost impossible to get a job after a felony conviction which is really easy to get in many states with just personal use quantities. Oh well at least some states are starting to get it right.

Yep, here in KY more than 5 plants or 8oz is considered trafficking and a class D felony - one ounce or even one plant with a hunting rifle in the house is an automatic felony. Which will ruin the life of a lonely old sexagenarian only looking for arthritis relief that doesn't cost an arm and a leg or causes an opioid addiction...

I believe this goes way deeper than we think. Weed is like a curse to Big Pharma. A roadblock if you will. It jeopardizes their demonic plans to keep everyone on borderline illness; sick enough to keep their patients coming back for more meds, but not well enough to be cured. It's not jut about money. They literally want everyone sick and begging for their poisonous meds.

I'm not a conspiracist but do agree, we need to get big money lobbyists out of government or we will all be the Monopoly shoe landing on Boardwalk/Mayfair. Of course, as a non-conforming conformist, I also know it is far too late for that.

And it's probably a male.

Male or not, if it were up for adoption I'd still give it a good home, nurse it back to health then let my chickens turn it into green eggs and hash.

And it's ok to drink as much as you want with no repercussions as long as you dont drive. How many shootings, fights, thefts, and other violent acts stem from alcohol. Now how many stem from smoking some weed. Just saying.

And then you have opiates. Some of the most evil stuff in the world. Yes you need it sometimes but long term it will ruin your life even if you take it the way it is prescribed and you are under a Drs care. Even after you get off of it after years of use you never seem to ever return to normal. And that first few weeks after quitting are gonna be the worst weeks of your life. But currently in most states there are no true alternatives for those who suffer extreme pain everyday. Pain will make you desperate and do stupid things. Like getting back on opiates just to get through the day. It is really messed up when just a little mj will do the same job and allow you to get what you need to do done without being miserable. Yes you have to find the right strain for you but when you do you will be far better off.

Anyways off my soapbox for now.

Funny thing is the top dog sheriff from the next county over is under investigation for drug use, seems he too has a problem and had been caught with his hand in the cookie jar. The evidence locker always seemed to come up short.

It is about time for the people to band together and get rid of these antiquated laws. Do you know it has only been a few years since I could actually buy alcohol in my city, we always had to drive out of state to get a beer - outside the city limit, our county is still dry as the holier than thou's blocked that.

The fight for Cannabis to b used as meds. Has changed, some Dr. are pro or con. If your ailment is legit ( ask your doc ) since thier has been little government studies,it’s up to the doc whether or not to prescribe.
