The officer in this article stated the confiscated money will be used for training and equipment and the dealers they busted are paying for it, what they seem to forget is that their tax dollars are helping pay for the incarceration and upkeep on these people. So who is actually being punished.

The value of this haul seems over rated, why would anyone want to pay over $2,000 a lb. for some Mexican weed. At best I would only pay maybe $800 for it, and if I went to Mexico I wouldn't give more than $500 a lb.

It's funny they convict a guy for possession of marijuana he states it is a religious sacrament, send him to prison. Then charge him while in prison with running a grow operation from his cell.
Apparently someone has not figured out that prohibition has failed.

Who can claim what is to be considered as abuse? Every one is affected differently by what they consume, there are people who can handled alcohol better than others while there are some who can't and it should be a crime for them to drink it.

I bet this came out of Mexico. Here's the math.
2 tons = 4,000 lbs.
US tariff of $400.00 lb. = $1,600,000
4,000 lbs = 64,000 oz.
taxed @ retailer $50.00 an oz. =$3,200,000
total revenue for the government =$4,800,000
That is 1 nice chunk of change

I get the impression these three are of hispanic descent, a possible drug cartel relocation program.

The statistics claim abused once in a year but make no mention as to how often they used in a year.
My question: If it is used once a year is that abusing it?

This gives me the impression that our education system is not paying the teachers enough.
Even though I am against the prohibition of marijuana, I hope he wasn't distributing to minors. I would consider that as disrepectful and irresponsible.

Actually I am questioning the accuracy of this report.
1) How do they know this is accurate? Is our government in the pockets of the drug cartel to get this information?
2) What if this is more than actual? Are the people being intentionally misinformed to make it sound worse than it actually is?
3) What if this is less than actual? Doesn't that mean the drug cartels are doing a really good job of hiding their grows?

Interesting week in Arkansas
I have been slightly busy these last couple of weeks with work showing signs of picking up and some of my own much needed home repairs taking up some time, it feels good to get back here to rant.
First, there were a few drug bust mainly involving meth, I really don't care if some one wants to fry their brains with that trash as long as they can be responsible users and they show some respect for others. Of those busts some were charged with intent to distribute, I pretty well compare that to the pharmaceutical companies who have influenced the government to approve the drugs they developed as safe, while knowing they are not as safe as they are implied to be.
Doctors are licensed to practice medicine, but we are the ones paying to participate in the chemical testing for profit.
I personally do not use any over the counter medications or prescription drugs.
1)I believe they violate the laws of God and nature, after all God in his wisdom has provided us with natural organic products to sustain our lives.
2)I believe as a consumer I should have the final say as to what extent I will accept, tolerate, and trust the advances of modern medical science.
3)If our elected officials are so adamantly sure they are right in their opinion as to what is to be acceptable then it shouldn't take a court of law to hold them accountable for that opinion or any damages and deaths associated with the products they claim to be the right choice and only choice for all people.
Second, a federal judge has issued a stay of execution for a convicted murderer, this is not closure for the family of his victim, I am conflicted about capitol punishment on one hand I think he deserves to die, on the other I think the worst punishment he could get is complete solitary confinement with no contact of any kind including his own family, no books, tv, exercise, he can sleep on the floor like an animal. This will put him in a position to think about his actions, and will most likely drive him insane.
Third, let's not forget the federal indictment of 31 people for questioning of a suspected drug trafficking ring. No charges were filed against any of these people at this time, so I am guessing that the feds hope that someone will incriminate themselves through this intimidation tactic.
