Was the $50k running away when it was “captured”?

“Seized” is probably more accurate.

I was thinking that, if I was there they would of had to capture it because I’d been running like hell with it.

Why not the “Pines”, where there’s a thousand times more than that ?? Hmmmm……

That has always boggled me. There really must be more to the story. The Hmong have some kind of protection or something. The pines doesn’t hide what they do and nothing happens.

“That has always boggled me.”

It’s simple. If they eradicate the Pines they will be accused of racism. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

The funny thing, that I predicted by the way, is liberals or progressives, aren’t championing their leaders achievements, just still ranting like hysterical girls about the last leader. It’s almost like they don’t have a identity without it, like they aren’t actually interesting or intelligent without being able to blindly hate on the spray tan orangutan. Here in arguably one of the most liberal counties in one of the most liberal states , now with a liberal president and it’s still all about a ex reality tv star. Grow the fuck up, no one cares

Maybe some of us aren’t happy with any of it. But at least pseduo-adults are now in charge. But fear not, I have a feeling you’ll get the fascist dictatorship you so dearly seek. Maybe within the next 10 years. One of the longest lasting democracies in the history of the world almost came unglued on January 6th, coaxed to overthrow Congress and stop the Certification. That was an opening volley. Lie, lie, lie and then say “here, now, drink this.” It’s how JJ got over 900 people to commit suicide in Guyana circa 1978. America is on a bad path.

Sure there’s tons of other huge illegal farms for TCSO to hit, but this one had other motivations. The Lewiston raid is pay back for speaking out and helping others

The guy recently had county deny his license extension over a septic issue. They then cut him down and destroyed his ghouses. He didn’t even have a chance to appeal the director’s decision fully. They never issues a violation even during county inspection prior month.

He has a right to cure and I know they’ll say it was immediate threat to public health but I don’t actually believe that. They have permission to come onto property for inspection without notice. So what do they do, send the heli and whole raid gang.

He had a valid license and during the appeal he should maintain that status. Sheriff and planning actual just want to make a point to him and the the other Eastern Europe crowd.

Armies of people smoke weed all day every day. Ounce a week, all year is over 3 pounds a year. A decent sized farm that pulls in 300 pounds is only providing head for 100 or 200 people. And there’s a battalion of dealers and dispensaries to provide that weed, one small baggy at a time. America’s appetite for weed has never been fully sated. Not all weed heads look like Cheech and Chong.

Who’s “we”? “We” pot growers hardly ever fertilize our plants with dead babies. Do your research.

Culling clones is not “baby killing”! I wish people would stop saying that. Sometimes you just have too many plants and not enough space.

Well someone has to get rid of the pizza gate children. Why do you think none have come forward they makes good fertz. I saw Hillary head’in up AP in a semi. It’s why you haven’t seen her in the news. You’d think you Anons would of figured it out by now but you’re all to busy on the inter-web and don’t get out much I guess. So what’s the new date for the impending catostphic event us babykillers wanna know. We need to prep more plants.

Ever park at a business near a dispensary? You’ll see all kinds, ages, races,etc. I frequent a couple stores in the same plaza. And the odor permeates the appliance store one door down. It was weird walking in and smelling it so strong. It flared up my asthma really bad. Hopefully for this business owners livelyhood, his customers and employees can tolerate it. But that’s the first thing I think of now when I think about (not) going back .

Sounds imaginary. Sounds like psychosomatic asthma. Does skunk cabbage in the forest trigger asthma? What about roses? How does your bronchioles know one smell was illegal for 100 years. How does the retail store smell so strong? The weed is usually in jars sealed up, and you haven’t been able to smell samples during Covid. Unless they are flowering bud right there, you might have been getting worked up at the IDEA of a scent.

Let’s assume 38 million people in CA. Let’s say only 2% smoke a gram a day. That’s 1674pounds per day in just CA. A more realistic 4% puts it over 3,300 pound per day, or 1.2 million pounds per year
