I wonder if he at least snickered or had a good laugh writing out that press release knowing there are some people stupid enough to believe that bullshite.

Seriously. Up here in Chicago the police just started cracking down on the heroin epidemic hardcore and just writing citations like parking tickets for weed (obviously not for this much quantity)

Sheriff Jason Ard says, "This is a large quantity of marijuana, marijuana that would have been on our streets had we not gotten involved. I'm proud that my team was able to intercept the drugs before our school-aged children hit the streets for summer vacation."

Marijuana in Louisiana is a threat to children.

Marijuana in Colorado means money for schools, jobs, and less crime.

"The weed is estimated to be worth more than $80,000 on the street".

The media is the drug lords best friend. This story just spawned at least 10 new dealers and expanded the distribution system. Announcing the Street Value is half the problem. The media needs to use more discretion.

Sure can tell who all the pot heads are in this thread.

I know marijuana, in moderation, isn't gonna kill you. But, I have a best friend who's son is the poster child for what it can ultimately lead to.

I can count on three fingers the number of times I have smoked. Its been 6 years since my last time. I don't like it personally, but I will defend someone else's right to. Its no more dangerous than alcohol, yet the police makes tons of money and get to steal other peoples stuff because of it, so they'll spew whatever BS to keep their revenue up.

To your friends son, that's sad, but unless you want to outlaw alcohol too, I don't see the point in keeping it illegal.

Good grief. You think giving information is a major problem? Is that Southern police state thing?

That's moderation and ok in my book...plus you're an adult and can make your own decisions.

A 16 y/o that starts with pot, trying to fit in and all that matters is getting that bag and next high....sad thing.

Each his own

If it isn't pot, it's alcohol.

And pot is the better option frankly.

Here we go. I have no interest in smoking weed but it doesn't "lead" to anything.

If weed gets legalized the voters will. No more houses, cars, bank accounts to seize and sell, plus losing out on grants for equipment and drug task forces. Violent crime doesn't pay out nearly as well as drugs do.
