Agents seize $1.2 billion worth of pot - GoFuckYourself.com

DateDoc · 07-23-2009, 02:45 PM

FRESNO (AP) - Federal and state agents have arrested 82 people for growing more than $1.2 billion worth of marijuana in California's Sierra Nevada range.

Gil Kerlikowske, who directs the White House's Office of National Drug Control Policy, says agents have destroyed more than 314,000 marijuana plants at 70 different grow sites over 10 days. He warns that more arrests are pending.

Kerlikowske was in Fresno County Wednesday to express his support for the sweep, which has netted $41,000 in cash, 26 firearms and three vehicles.

Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims says several Mexican drug cartels are involved in the operations. All but one of the people arrested was from Mexico.

Add the words, "Mexican Drug Cartels" and idiots cheer on the police.

"Look... I think their Iranians!"

sheeet, dat's a lotta pot

TidalWave · 07-23-2009, 03:41 PM

imagine if California was able to sell that weed? $1.2B towards the California budget deficit would go a long way, but instead it just got burned up -- creating more pollution in the environment.

wow so many cops must be smoked out there ...

Bill8 · 07-23-2009, 04:00 PM

If the feds say it was 1.2 billion, apply the cops-always-lie factor - probably a few million worth - once harvested. Since it's july, in reality it was really a couple thousand young plants.

Good to get the mexican federal land growers out of the business tho - more money for the small mom and pop growers.

collegeboobies · 07-23-2009, 04:00 PM

Crazy... we need to keep marijuana a domestic crop

Doesn't apply to the mexican federal land growers - none of that was headed for the medical marijuana outlets.

So Holder's statement that they would leave the medicals alone hasn't been broken - yet.

Manowar · 07-23-2009, 04:03 PM

that is a fuckton of pot

Phoenix · 07-23-2009, 04:05 PM

eh...if they want to tax it..soon you can bet your ass you are regulated or shut down really quick

alias · 07-23-2009, 04:47 PM

lol, fucking potheads. 1.2 billion worth but less than 50K of cash, don't the cops know the real money is in blow or even meth/synthetics.

stickyfingerz · 07-23-2009, 04:58 PM

1.2 billion lol. Cracks me up how they inflate the prices. 1 plant =s one pound to them regardless if it has bud on it, or whether its male or female, and on an outdoor grow probably a ton of hermies and male plants mixed in.

He never said the DEA would be abolished. They will always go after the big dogs. They are going to cut down on some of the more petty things the DEA was going after.

He also said that he, and therefore the DEA, would respect those that were growing and distributing in accordance with California law. Until we hear that this was a legal operation, what he said would not apply here.

JenniDahling · 07-24-2009, 08:05 AM

Reminds me of "Operation Green Harvest" in Hawaii back in the 80's. Legislatures had the brilliant idea of yanking and burning all the pot plants/fields. Officers clamored to be on site for the burn and they had to ground the helicopters they used to use to help control it. Pilots kept getting buzzed. Got folks off weed tho, so they turned to ice. Nice.

kowalsky · 07-24-2009, 09:47 AM

It will be a sad summer for many buyers!

DateDoc · 07-24-2009, 11:08 AM

The cops just announced they were going to have a burn party and charge $10 to get in to raise money for the PD.

Just kidding.
