"If my neighbors don't know and no one else knows, how would I be a target?" he said in the earlier interview. "I want to be invisible."
This guy is priceless... :rolleyes:
Way to be invisible. :clap::clap:
That mouth-breathing dumbass plays right into stoner stereotypes. Unreal.
humm what happened to the orders from obama for feds/dea/fbi to stand down?
Anderson advises neighbors to watch for suspicious activity in their communities.
"Be alert, watch the neighborhood and if they see any suspicious activity they need to report it," Anderson said.
sounds like they are trying to scare the unknowing and then to use them to rat med growers out.
btw even tho this guy was dumb enough to talk about his grow. then talk about how much he looked to make all under this false canopy of it being legal.does'nt mean he should spend his life in jail.i guess i think alil diffrent i think someones word should be bond.the state calls it legal and obama told them to lay off. to me it looks like a pattern is starting to show with all of this?
a month or 2 ago they hit acouple shops,then a lab now there after growers.
i like how the prick said we get paid to do this it's our job as long as we get paid to do this we will.you would think that someone holding a job title like that they should have morals,it's funny how on the news they sure do act as if they respect the people and go by a set of morals....:cool:
Obama gave the order at the administrative level. But he can't stop every trigger-happy young recruit from making a few busts! Especially ones where the fuckin' retards were dumb enough to instigate the trouble.Quote:

It's hilarious how stupid that guy was! He thought he was cool. LOL... "living the dream". I bet the cops were cracking up watching that and getting suited up for the raid. Who goes on the news and says how much money they make doing their job!?!
^agreed. some people begin to feel invulnerable after some time growing 'legally'. Obviously, many still feel MMJ is illegal (just look at all the public comments at the end of the online news articles). My hat's off to dispensary owners who are in our front lines of this war on ignorance regarding marijuana.
THIS IS THE TIME FOR ROB CORRY TO REALLY GET BUSY. HELP ROB!
You can't fix stupid.

the DEA will have that house up for sale ...soon...he won't be needing it...:rasta:Quote:

Step two: invite the media along and bust the evil doer. Splash pics of the demon weed on the front page.
Thank god, our federal agents are protecting women and children from reefer madness! Thank god, for the DEA! Not in our neighborhood... Blah blah blah...

They don't call it the war on drugs for nothin...

it'll be interesting to see if this guy is charged or if they are just going to make TV appearances as scare tactics.
this guy, after all he said, likely isn't going to be helped by truth-in-trials...
which seems like it is still in committee? H.R. 3939: Truth in Trials Act (GovTrack.us)
Nice post - ya know i think yesterday was the anniversary of Eric Blair's death.Quote:

this was'nt done by some rookie,also he did'nt give any info as to where he lived address wise not that i saw.sounds to me like mr jason and news 9 works close with dea.how else would they have had that info so quick?Quote:

I thought I read somewhere that a tip came in. It wouldn't be hard for a neighbor to see that and then call it in! The neighbors, in hindsight, were suspicious and also were pissed! Also, you can see his NAME in the story (on the electric bill). What was this guy thinking?
But we will see. You may be right. I bet the DEA may have gotten so out of control at this point that they won't even listen to the president. We all know some new laws are coming soon. I bet that's when the DEA will make their presence known big-time. Sounds like they already know that lawmakers are going to pass a bill that will make dispensaries non-profit. Then they're wanting to come in and systematically shut down every dispensary!
Its fuckin bullshit man! Its going to be an interesting few months.

and the last part of what you said takes me back to those clones i bought and what the leo told me with a big smile on his face.he said yea will things are about to change soon as if they already knew what was coming.i say again even tho people like to act as if im full of shit.but i really think back then to now they have been setting up stings only to collect info on people.so when all this gets pushed through they will already have info to hand over to dea.what good lil minons they will be for all the hard work they did for there masters.
i think this is the year where alot of bs will go down and the shops and big grows will be the main targets.if this is not a heads up to people, then is the guy on 9news really the dumbest of the bunch?
also would like to add that this only goes to show who the real powers at be are and it's not the prez.the dea,atf,fbi,fed reserve so on are the ones pulling the strings. how so? well for 1 if this group is disobeying direct orders from the prez you would think that just like was said above about making them look weak if they did nothing.you would think that this would show weakness from the prez by him not standing up and saying hey i told you to stop doing this? either that or the whole stand down bit was just another bs show?hummm
If you guys believe anything the President says, you are an idiot. The president is a professional liar. It is his job to lie to the American Public. There will be more busts in Colorado. The fight is not over, it has just begun.
my money is on 9news for the tip. it was all too coincidental. and there cameras were there the whole step of the way.
Look what the reporter had to do to get the interview...
That guy was a complete idiot.Quote:
With a little persuading over a meal at Village Inn, I convinced experienced medical marijuana grower Chris B. to do something he??s never done before, show the public his very large medical marijuana grow operation.
His house sits smack in the middle of a wealthy Highlands Ranch neighborhood. He uses about a thousand feet of his 5,500 square foot house to grow legal medical marijuana.
So Jace Larson is the reporter that did the story. Look what that moron posted up online.
With the help of law enforcement from the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, the North Metro Drug Task Force, South Metro Drug Task Force and the Aurora Police Department, 9Wants to Know identified recent residential grow operations in cities and counties across the metro area:
West Bowles Avenue and South Kipling Parkway - Jefferson County
South University Boulevard and C-470 - Highlands Ranch
West Waterton Road and North Rampart Range Road - Douglas County
Meadows Boulevard - Castle Rock
Lincoln Avenue and Jordan Road - Parker
East Main Street and North Jordan Road - Parker
East Smoky Hill Road and South Telluride Street - Centennial
South Sherman Street and East Easter Avenue - Centennial
Yale Avenue and South Syracuse Way - Arapahoe County
South Chambers Road and East Hampden Avenue - Aurora
East 84th Avenue and Washington Street - Adams County
Chambers Road and East 104th Avenue - Commerce City
West 80th Avenue and Zuni Street - Adams County
Washington Street and Malley Drive - Northglenn
East 120th Avenue and Washington Street - Northglenn
Colorado Boulevard and East 120th Avenue - Thornton
Colorado Boulevard and East 108th Avenue - Thornton
East 88th Avenue and Washington Street - Thornton
West 104th Avenue and Lowell Boulevard - Westminster
West 38th Avenue and Tennyson Street - Denver
30th Street and Curtis Street - Denver
Why does it feel like we are moving backwards??? Very quickly??

A bunch of raids due to people wanting to be on the 9 oclock news! First rule of growing :: DONT SHOW OR TELL ANYONE YOU ARE GROWING!
Second rule of growing :: REFER TO RULE NUMBER 1
DEA agent Sweeten looks just like your typical Nazi with his nearly shaved head. I guess Barack is lying or will pass the buck saying no DEA raids. This must be their last gasp before they are forced to change the federal law. :wtf:
notice where he said "it is not medicine".
proof that the media even if considered liberal is in cahoots with justice, gov, leo and big biz. suckin cock all the way to the bank. our country has the highest prison pop. per capita and all because 80% of our people sell out. to the rest i say :thumbsup:Quote:

Exactly the reason why the DEA talks out its ass. Its biased, ill informed, and in fear of its demise. Maybe this raid was locally politically motivated. The DEA should be concentrating on illegal drugs entering the country like cocaine, methamphetamine and heroin, not medical patients in states where medical marijuana is legal. Hopefully, the patients of Colorado will stand up to them because some of them are dirty (if you catch my drift). :DQuote:

Can't wait for Obama to get into town. Someone has to bring this to him with media present.
Also a perfect example but what happens if you start bragging. The masters of the universe will make an example out of you. Welcome to the greatest free society on the planet.
So this just keeps getting better.
Guy invites media into his home thanks to a Village Inn dinner.
Makes public the fact that he will make $400K this year.
Signs a consent to search form when DEA show up at his house.
Is growing 224 plants.
Is only caregiver for 12 people.
I wonder how many of his patients have those nice 'edible cards' that doctors are promoting these days that claim to allow you to grow up to 50 plants.
Do the math. I guarantee some dipshit doctor wrote 12 recommendations to patients with a 20 plant cap.
Just goes to show that the law says 6 plants, and I'm guessing the DEA is sticking firmly to that number, and not the "what ever the doctor deems necessary" number.
Guess we'll find out at the trial...
As long as bone-heads like that keep making the news, the folks who play by the rules will face even more restriction. :mad:Quote:

The recs don't mean squat.
The fact that he had that many, just says he was not legal under State law either. :wtf:
And, seems un-aware that the feds are un-concerned by the number of plants the State allows.
(They could not care less folks!)
They count every plant for sentencing guidlines.
Then, he jus' hadda brag about it!
Frickken priceless!

Hope he has some sick patients and a doctor with some balls.
