Pot farmers take extreme steps to protect crops
Grenades, traps, razors and snakes ward off intruders, endanger police when farmers take up some extreme intruder defense systems.
“You have to understand that it’s an economic endeavor to these people,” said Dennis Will, a former Elyria, Ohio, police narcotics supervisor. “They can’t go to the police and say, ‘Hey, someone stole my drugs.’ ”
Can’t go to the police, indeed. The real cause of this fiasco isn’t depraved drug farmers or reefer madness, it’s an unjust war on drugs that creates artificual marijuana prices of $2,300 a pound and no way to protect it within legal means.

the only reason that pot isn’t legalized is because of in the beginning of the us they had to make something illegal and it was between tobacco and weed. the chose weed because tobacco was making tons of money for our goverments already fat walets.
Mj healthier than any cigarette or drink of beer. there is no physical addiction, and you can never overdose.
So many health issues could be cured or softened by weed, help the skinny caner patients become health and fat.
The only reason y the government doesn’t legalize mj is because they make so much more of the “war o n drugs” which really only means they get their greed lil hands on more money than any under age cig or over the limit alcohole. doesn’t cause liver damages, brain damage, AND doesn’t cause any body to get anxtious or angery. it’s a relaxer. but there is so lil reseach done on mj no one can tell the full good bad ends.
