I'm sorry, but if it wasn't illegal I would take a joint and a Dr. Pepper over a six-pack any time

D'oh. Beaten to the "Spark it up, man" joke.

Twice.

Anybody who can vaguely discriminate right/wrong can divine that prohibition is both stupid and vile. Here is how we could force its legalization: This spring, everyone should plant one cannabis plant by their front door. If a million people did this, it would all be over.

Dammit! Too slow.

Well played Nasty_McFilth.

That guy (the "Well turn it up man!" guy) sounds just like Tommy Chong.....coincidence?

Um no, they would just borrow more money and build a LOT more prisons is what would happen.

No, if a million people did this, the DEA would have an excuse to massively inflate their budget to catch these 1 million "rogue" citizens. Then the prison industry would see a massive boost in their numbers, justifying the construction of more facilities to monitor these non-violent un-American bastards.

A million criminals is an expanding prison population.

Fifty million criminals is a revolution.

I'm way too lazy to attempt the math, but assuming that million people were proportionately spread out across the entire US I suspect the cops in my town would be arresting everyone they could and I'm certain my neighbors would turn me in.....OTOH, their front door isn't too far from mine. Maybe I could plant it on their property.

I miss that commercial so much...growing up in the 80s was awesome.

"I learned it from watching YOU dad!!!"

"Hey man, is that freedom rock?"

"I pity the fool!"

"Where's the beef?"

"The more you know"

"And knowing is half the battle..."

"Don't drown your food."

Shoot...what else...?

One year when me and my partner went up into the woods to do our harvest my partner's wife did a full 50 point inspection of my truck before she'd let us leave.

Lights work? Tail lights work? Insurance tag up to date? Signals work? Horn? Wipers? No fluids leaking? No smoke or condensation coming off the vehicle? Seat belts? You gonna drive four km over the speed limit and not a hair faster?

Me and my partner didn't mind her busybodying, because we both know that a busted headlight or a missing insurance tag is how stupid people get caught.

Goddamnit so much. End prohibition now.
 
2011-12-07 02:42:06 PM
Surprisingly, the cop math is actually pretty close to what the actual price would be (around $300 an ounce). That doesn't mean it won't become 150lbs worth 2.5 billion by the time it comes to justify increasing the budget.

I, personally, think this would be a MUCH better approach.

AngryPoet: Cops always estimate street value way to high....

According to google calc 185lbs=2960 oz, and $900,000/2960=$304 per ounce.

according to priceofweed.com, that's smack dab between mid and high grade cost. So, I guess their math is right?

/still think it seems high.

"Does that thing have a hemi in it?"

"You're about to find out!"

"Oh, I see. It doesn't."

"Nope, sorry."

"But it goes to 11."

AngryPoet: Cops always estimate street value way to high....

In this case, they estimated the street value of the seizure at about $300/oz. If the quality was really good, that's a reasonable estimate of value. At least that's about the going rate where I live.

Just asking, but how the hell do you go from a routine traffic stop to ripping apart a set of speakers?

My granny drives like she's racing in nascar; so, yeah....

Although, since she had an encounter with an unfortunate stop sign (that's not a mistake, the stop sign was the unfortunate one); I drive her wherever she wants to go.

So; my choices would be extremely fast, making only right turns or not driving at all. The last one would work; I'm not so sure about the first one.

"Probable Cause"

It's cause you're probably doing something illegal.

In this country? No freakin' clue. My concern (and my partner's wife's concern) was the poundage of fresh green that would be unmistakable and unhidable in the event of us getting pulled over for even the most innocuous reason.

In the USA? Probably pretty easy. Civil rights in the USA are in the toilet. Get pulled over for speeding and the cop can legally use that as a pretext to search based upon vague and intangible "probable cause" such as claims that he smelled marijuana or that the driver was acting nervous.

HOW many times did that commercial play? At least once per commercial break on stations like TBS and USA... It is engraved in my brain. I'm afraid I'll repeat 80's/90's commercials on my death bed...

there's no such thing as an illegal search and seizure anymore is there?

rip 14th amendment.

nowadays "probable cause" is "you're from out of town"

$300 an ounce is too high?... Maybe for some nasty Mexican ditch weed. But for hydroponically grown stuff, that's not bad at all.

They're calculating based on retail value of nickel bags, more than even ounces, I would suspect. Wholesale value wouldn't be close to 900,000.
