Okay, okay, so I don't know for sure how high the cops got, the DEA, Monsanto, or whoever it is that took home the gold, err... I mean green. But what I do know is this: I had recently caught a post by ABC30 Action News stating Fresno has gotten its' largest pot bust of the year. Congrats, assholes, now what am I going to do when I squirt the police with water guns. Just kitten, I don't do that, pussies like getting wet. Lord forgive me I'm getting off topic.
*Back on top-ic!*
So, firstly as always, a summery of the event. Sherriff deputahs (dep-u-tahz) had found a 66-acre farm near Belmont and Zediker (makes you want to say "zeeeep zeeeeep biddle biddle zap zap"), and air patrols came to discover "thousands" of pot plants a month (or so) away from harvest, with other crops masking the happy-green.
According to Sherriff Mims, she wants grow it herself! Just kidding again, she had this to say: "When we get people out of state to Fresno County to grow, that's unacceptable."
You know, foot traffic is usually something an economical society attempts at bribing people into, but if there is pot involved suddenly it's a bad thing? What about how that weed money will eventually, at least a bit of it, be reinvested into local shops? 66-acres of income, you can not tell me this will completely miss the area in which it was created. I am not a drug dealer, so I don't know, I could be wrong. But this picture (and text, I put the text down as well incase you would prefer that medium) is a statement I made to ABC30's Corin Hoggard.

"It's really silly to get rid of that much pot, what about stuff that keeps harming people, like crack, meth and police.
66 acres worth of pot, most of the money collected by that is eventually going to go into, local and otherwise, stores yes? It's not like the dealers (lesser and greater) are going to hoard the money. If they had that state of mind they wouldn't have a need for the business anyway and wouldn't be in it.
So, 66 acres worth of happy-grass income and a good portion of this likely would stimulate the local economy. Stores can afford more, they have a greater ability to hire new employees, ultimately leading to a slimmed down home-bum population (people who are homeless and generally unable to find work and unwilling to make something greater with that freedom, but not always, just an observation and bias). I mean the list keeps going for a little bit.
The DEA, in my opinion, needs to get off their binge-drinking high (or should I say stoned?) horse and let these things slide, it's not hurting anyone in this case, right? I mean, who is gonna go out of business? Smoke shops?
Of course I am sure that the FPD's odd mixture of radically conservative and potentially careless nature is just as much an issue with economical strife vs virtually harmless stimulation (economical and otherwise).
In cases like this, in my personal opinion, every person here dying of starvation is a product of the same ideology that keeps cleaning out weed farms." Said I.
It is possible that I am wrong here and there in my statement, I might not have been high enough at the time to properly give my opinion. No thanks to the Fresno 5-0 Drug Swine.
Once again I ask, how do YOU feel about the story? Light it up and let me know.
-Arrrooo!
