this guy was arrested for growing an herb. how ridiculous. The Cannabis seed has been around longer than any history of human civilization has been. its a plant. for example. next week lets outlaw rice, because its a plant we can also use the bi product of, which alters our mind to let us know we are full from eating. and if we grow enough rice on our own, we will not have to buy any from the store. which puts more money in the consumers pocket and teaches them a trade about the quality and amazement of our planet and its resources. And for people to have the Odacity to sit at a desk job all day and complain about the world becoming polluted and ways to live "green" when we dont even provide for our farmers or mow our own lawns. .. This world is really backwards. this is "god given" plant. "Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed which is upon the face of all the earth.…To you it will be for meat." … And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. (Genesis 1:29-31 For so the Lord said unto me, "I will take my rest and I will consider in my dwelling place like a clear heat upon herbs. For afore harvest, when the bud is perfect and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks and take away and cut down the branches." (Isaiah 18:4-5)

Dude III; good question for kamil. He/she posted on several stories. Each post had a different name, and different amounts of money "made". I think it was a scam; possibly for those that are naive enough to go to the link, then give their SS numbers, or a bank account number, or a credit card number. I reported user several times, e-mailed Fox, and called them yesterday; the man I spoke to said he was trying to get in touch with the webmaster to get this person permanently removed from posting. Just trying to look out for those that would have been naive enough to go to the link. Don't think there are that many that would have; I know most that post on here are intelligent enough not to do so; but I know one personally that would probably go to it. Peace out Dude.

That is like crazy in the SWLR ghetto, I mean - are you just trying to get shot and killed? Those people down there will shoot you just for fun, much less that much weed
