Big news in a small town

A grow-op was busted in Deland Florida this week when police arrived in response to a 911 call about a home invasion. Police called the haul huge, however the reported 45 plants hardly qualify for that designation. Barrie was huge. These folks basically had a garage full of plants.

The two women living in the home endured a terrifying ordeal, being tied up and threatened with knives and guns by the intruders that came of course to steal the cannabis. It's yet another illustration of the harms of our government's war on this plant. If it was legal to grow, it wouldn't worth more than gold and it would not be worth stealing.

Now, I spent several days skydiving in Deland in 1990. It's a quiet and charming town with an airport and a drop zone where I jumped a Twin Otter. It's not unlike my own Northampton. The neighbors were suprised to learn of the grow-op right in their upscale backyards, proving once again that cannabis consumers make good neighbors.
