2Weeks ago people were saying there were 2-3 black guys soliciting pot deals at the Brass Rail. Why would anyone agree to a deal with a stranger you just met in a bar??

Greed. Desperation. If you ever have to ask why something was done someway you can’t figure it out. Think money.

Mentally healthy minds do not adhere to racist ideology. So you are inferior, having an inferior intellect, spewing sociopathic bigotry, not superior. Idiot

It’s funny because people play this game and when it gets real, they piss themselves. If you don’t want to get stung, don’t kick the beehive and when you get stung, nobody cares. I would feel like such a chump ass if I reported my illegal drug deal that had gone bad. Grow some f@cking balls!

I would report it, armed robbery it very different then calm peaceful cannabis transactions, where everyone goes away happy. VIOLENCE is the issue here! You get it.

We should make a list of this year’s local press releases and give a thumbs up to our favorite communication break down. As for me, i would choose the grow dozer that had the “Sheriff” decal on the side. Second would be, bragging about how many firearms have been confiscated – w/no arrest, name or address.

I have to wonder why the victim didn’t think that this wouldn’t happen. At least he walked away with just a head injury, bruised ego and a little less cash in his pocket.

watching the growers scramble, do they get a permit? Do they invest in a real business? Do they sell off their growdozer? Do they go back to college to try and get a profession[though they probably won’t get far with their lazy was work ethic], it’s a free fall right now, lots of properties going on the market but not moving.

“There is huge scientific evidence” eh? Without citations your post is worthless. If you can’t show some citations from credible sources I can only conclude that you’re totally full of shit.

“…far better if there were no non-whites?” Really???

Does the R in Michael R Ross stand for Racist? Or does White Supremacist fit your philosophy better? 🙄

You sure got some unhappy times coming, cause this country is turning browner every day.

A quick scroll through recent stories in this site shows that an armed robbery in Honeydew, an armed robbery in McKinleyville and two instances of child pornography were all committed by white guys. We would not be better off if there were only white people around – we would definitely be better off without people like you around.

I know it might seem like it but I occasionally take time away from my website. Last night I was spending time with friends and family. I believe the comment you were talking about has now been deleted and the poster has been banned.

Done with this site. The comment threads are enough to dumb down anyone, no matter how much you fight it.

If people think this would not happen or does not happen in a legalized market, you’re crazy. Banks, Gas stations, Homes, get robbed all the time… People do not think Huge scenes, without any access to banks are not a target?

But to use any kind of a legal bank, a business has to be themselves legal. Unless money laundering for all sorts of other unsavory businesses is ok too.

Not exactly the same scenario as a bank or gas station robbery. They are legal businesses operated by people who are not criminals.

This was one criminal engaging in an illegal business transaction with another criminal. One of those criminals decided to take it all. Yawn. The people on both sides of this transaction injure the legal market. A vote for 64 was and still is a vote against the black market criminals.

Do you think the ‘victim’ in this case cared where his blackmarket associates sold the weed, paid the appropriate taxes, or if it would get into the hands of minors?
