Gloopie...we don't know how many people might have died from the time these plants were seedlings to the time he amassed his 175 lbs.

So, in a sense, his future consumption makes him a dangerous person. Of course another will step up to take the next 175 lbs.....and the same potential for damage to human life appears.

Legalize it? I think if you did that you'd have the streets and schools filled with psuedo-zombies as kids that would ultimately get their hands on the stuff would suffer the "legal party syndrome."

Perhaps the solution is legalization with huge penalties for usage under say.....age 30.

Alright, I was already to fight the good fight, then I read the replies, both sides, and the following article.
If my math serves me correctly, and leaving the hashish oil out of the equation, and dividing the value $2300 in half, times 175 (which was the amount of marijuana he had in his possession) that would put the street value at $44,722.22.

This is definitely not a Saturday night user...he is a dealer and should be put away..no parole!

I think this is where I came in......

Huish charged with selling marijuana

VENTURA, Calif. -- Olympic gold medalist Justin Huish, who dominated the archery competition during the 1996 Games, surrendered in court on charges he sold marijuana to a police informant.
Felony arrest warrants for Huish, 25, and his roommate, Brian Mastrangelo, 24, were issued Wednesday and they appeared in court Thursday. They each face up to four years in prison if convicted of possession of marijuana for sale.

Simi Valley police said they seized 4.5 ounces of marijuana, 4.2 grams of hashish oil and $23,000 from the pair's home. The value of the drugs was estimated at $2,300.

LEGALIZE IT!!! this BS has gone on long enough..the status quo has existed for too long....I had hoped that once our generation took power they wouldn't fall into the same old same old that the old geezers have kept alive for decades

booze is far worse to society as a whole and to the individual's health

complete nonsense that it's still suffering from this dark ages interpretation
