Lets see, christal meth or pot...............huuummmm, not sure.......gotta think about it.

''My high is always reflective­, peaceable, intellectu­ally exciting, and sociable, unlike most alcohol highs, and there is never a hangover. Through the years I find that slightly smaller amounts of cannabis suffice to produce the same degree of high, and in one movie theater recently I found I could get high just by inhaling the cannabis smoke which permeated the theater.

There is a very nice self-titer­ing aspect to cannabis. Each puff is a very small dose; the time lag between inhaling a puff and sensing its effect is small; and there is no desire for more after the high is there. The illegality of cannabis is outrageous­, an impediment to full utilizatio­n of a drug which helps produce the serenity and insight, sensitivit­y and fellowship so desperatel­y needed in this increasing­ly mad and dangerous world." ~Carl Sagan

What a complete waste! It's a waste of pot, a waste of law enforcement time and a waste of money not to mention the hardship down the line it will cause to people acustomed to getting their medicine. Regardless of whether or not it is legal or medically legal, people still NEED it to sleep, to stop pain, and to replace Prozac.
Between the pharmaceutical companies and egotistical do-gooders, the peace of the sweet leaf is hindered but we will not ever give up and never ever let it be over! NEVER!

A lot of people think if you support the re-legalization of cannabis you are pro-pot. Entirely not the case. It is precisely the people who do not take drugs who should be most alarmed at this atrocious waste of OUR money chasing a proven unwinnable war on (some) drugs. Legal maihuana would make it harder for our children to get it. Lets do it for the children.

Too funny. Not one post that says "way to go!"

I think there should be no one in jail for a marijuana offence. Either have the government sell and tax it or just leave it alone. Putting people in jail for pot is travesty. Drugs should be a health issue
not a crime problem.

Congratulations to the Toronto police, who have managed to provide support for the continued profits of growers who have NOT been busted.

Ask a big-time grower whether they support legalization, and don't be surprised when you receive a negative response: continued prohibition (just like the alcohol experience) ensures continued profits for the growers who remain operational.

Thus, the interests of the criminals and those of the police are aligned - the police seek to bust more grow-ops, while the growers themselves applaud the continued winnowing of the competition. It is, after all, literally impossible to stop people from growing a plant described as "weed" for very good reason. Thus, all the police can hope to do is somewhat reduce supply while they wage an unwinnable battle against nature and provide a "demand/supply" adjustment to prices.

What a huge waste of policing resources, which could be better spent in more productive activities - like beating protesters senseless and refusing to identify and prosecute the miscreants within their own ranks...

If pot weren't illegal and so easy to bust, there'd be thousands of cops out of work.

That's nothing compared to when they found the closed-up Molson Brewery in Barrie, ON filled with plants wherever they could find room. THAT was a big operation, and pretty ironic. This is nothing.
These large operations exist because of large demand and healthy profit margins. It is absolutely impossible to combat those two forces. Given how less-dangerous and addictive pot is compared to booze, why bother fighting it?

It really is a waste of time going after these growers. More will just show up to replace them. If we really want to stop this, we must go after the users. Put the users in jail or rehab or whatever and there will not be the need for the growers...

There are not many drugs, if any, that have so few interactions with other drugs. It seems very strange that society would rather see people on zanex or prozac which have devistating side effects and drug interactions, rather than a little maryjane... Seems illogical.

Bummmmmer! 27k some odd plants, WOW, just think if they exported that or sold it and taxed it... or made shirts/hats/pants, etc out of the stems, what a waste of biomass...
