Border Agents Find 9 Tons of Pot

[Wilbur]

Authorities found nearly nine tons of marijuana hidden in two underground bunkers, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Friday.

Officers found the 17,564 pounds of pot valued at about $8 million Thursday, along with firearms, ICE said. The bunkers were beneath a pair of garages on five acres of private property.

As of Friday, no arrests had been made.

The drugs were found as part of an investigation involving federal and local officials, said ICE agent Jerry Robinette. The drugs appeared to be packaged for shipment throughout the United States.

so what, fuck those third world people who grow pot to keep their families alive. not all the pot is growin in huge operations. sure it makes its way there eventually but alot of small guys are growing it too. it also helps to keep the cost down. supply and demand.

one people, one world

until the time comes when it can be regulated and taxed i'm grateful for what i can get and the best price i can get it.
