Hush, hush

I got a gem of information a little off topic, but it does concern a LEO organization. It has been discovered, but not in the news, that the WSP had a storage locker filled with explosives, that was evidence, that was ripped off in Tri-cities. And they let these people come after medical marijuana patients??? Who in their right mind would store explosives in a storage locker at a place where the average person stores their possessions????? :wtf:

Who is WSP?

Washington State Police. It was Walla Walla. Det cord, C4, dynamite and some others. Supposedly a secure locker in the Port of Walla Walla. ATF investigating and it happend 4 days ago. Just on the news. My original source was a bit tipsy and pissed off about it. :jointsmile:

Unfortunately the Drug War is very strong. People go crazy on Pot. :rasta:

This is what happens when you lower the hiring age for WSP officers to 19.
The WSP has now bcome a joke. It was one of the mostrespected organizations in the country but with the lowering of age requirements and problems with the lab it is now just a joke. Might as well move to Chicago.

Here's a link, it doesn't say where these explosives were being stored though, not yet anyway.

"The explosives were being stored for various agencies and private parties. They include:

â?¢ 96 one-pound blocks of TNT belonging to the Washington State Patrol;

â?¢ 17 sticks of dynamite belonging to the Forest Service;

â?¢ 1 spool of 1,500 feet of detonation cord for the Forest Service."


I can understand the Forest Service, but why does the WSP have 96 one-pound blocks of TNT?!?!?!? WTF?
