    $1 billion in pot eradicated!!!!

    Over the last eight days, a federal, state and county law enforcement initiative called Operation LOCCUST has eradicated 420,000 marijuana plants here worth more than $1 billion on the street. By comparison, authorities last year eradicated 330,000 plants over the six-month growing season, said Lt. Mike Boudreaux of the Tulare County Sheriff's Department.

        i think when they calculate the "street value" they must be figuring it out in nanograms.

          $12,000 for three fucking dirt plants grown in the forest by Mexicans???

          I think I'll stick to $20/gram for the kind grown in buckets in an old dude's house.
          gone. long gone.

              They actually weigh the dirt.
              For each plant they pull out there's a 3 pound root ball with dirt,
              This makes it into the weigh in, and makes the Police look better, and allows them to really nail the grower.

              It's sad to see someone go down for $10 000 street value over 2 plants.

                      The war on marijuana is so fucking stupid. It's a harmless plant that's been around for a long ass time and has never killed anyone and in fact has helped thousands of people with serious medical conditions live better lives. So why does the government hate it so much? Is it maybe because the pharmaceutical industry would lose too much money if it were legal? Why don't they have 200 people working to eradicate real drugs like meth instead of out picking fucking flowers in the forest? What a complete waste of time and money. Legalize pot and then people won't have to buy it from Mexican drug cartels. It's simple, really. The US government and Operation LOCCUST can go fuck themselves and I hope they all get AIDS for doing shit like this.

                          "Walters clutched three plants he said were worth $12,000 on the streets."

                          1lb = $4000
                          1 a good outdoor plant yields about 1/2 lb.
                          Looking at the pics, most the plants look small, a few... not so bad.

                          Max worth for the 3 is most likely 2k-3k. Depending on the strain etc.
                          They may be able to squeeze 12k from naive med users..

                                    They calculate it as 1 pound per plant regardless if it is a seedling etc. This is why they get their fucked up estimates. lol

                                      Oh, and I'm talking single gram price here, obviously. If you want to buy weight you can get it cheaper.
