wow what a jerk. if you're gonna act like that why even have your grow log here.
So not only do we have a punk trying to telll us the law, but a punk that accepts stolen goods, and whines about not being able to cash-in on the larceny.Quote:

You want to grow the stolen plants (yeah...I believe ya. YOU didn't steal the plants, lol.) of unknown origin, of unknown genetics, in a school dorm? Good luck. Perhaps when you are living back at your parents house, smokin'a a joint on your way to ditching your job at McDonalds, you'll look back at this and laugh. I know I will.
Tell ya what...since I have such a soft spot for thieves and punks...I'll offer some valuable advise...Go sell some of those stolen PS3's, and buy a bag on your way to ditching class again.

Again, I'm not sure what part of my previous post illicited such a negative response from you, but I assure you I don't return the seeming hatred you have towards me. You not giving me advice on growing marijuana isn't the end of the world, nor is it much of a deterent towards my growing. I suppose you'll hate me even more after this post. But I've never advocated anyone breaking the law.
I have a moral responsibility to grow this marijuana and to smoke it. Martin Luther King, Letter from Birmingham jail, 1963.
So it's a good thing to accept stolen property? Knowing you are accepting stolen property, in my eyes, makes you a thief.Quote:

Trying to show society (authorities included) that no, we are not a bunch of thieves, drug dealers and irresponsible school kids is tough enough without someone coming in and proving us wrong.
Your little intro shows me, that your judgement (and situation) is questionable.
Over-reaction? Could be. Justifiable? Yup, to me it is. Judgemental? Yeah...probably. But I'm not the one coming in telling all that I knowingly accept stolen property while shrugging it off as some sort of imagined kharma, or that I'm an irresponsible stoner with no insight to the legal/social problems associated with growing cannabis. Would your friends and roommate(s) mind getting busted for your grow?
Yeah, well, I've got my med card, I'm not a thief, I grow at home and no, I don't advocate anyone breaking the law.Quote:

Of course, this is my opinion, and my opinion alone. Anyone else in this forum is free to do as they see fit, and I will respect their decision either way. However, I choose not to further the stigma that has been hefted upon our backs by a society that equates cannabis use with criminal activity.
And what this moderator deems fit is to lock the thread. Not only do we not discuss growing in dorms or parents' houses here, but we also aren't in the business of helping thieves.
Since when is missing over 100 classes something to brag about? 3.0 isn't all that great... I got a 3.0 in college running 22 credits per semester (full time is 12), working 30 hours a week, and graduated a year early. Imagine how well you'd do if you actually concentrated on going to class instead of hanging out with thieves, stealing and growing pot, and playing WOW!
You think a 3.0 as a music major is going to get you far? That's a SUPER competitive field and you'd do better to practice your instrument, and maybe I dunno get a JOB to pay your bills, since you NEED to start building a resume ASAP. Try working as a tutor or a substitute teacher in the local high school's music program.
Ugh. Whatever, this thread is over and I share Rusty's disdain.
Edit: Please don't mis-quote Dr. King. He deserves more respect than to be used as a lame justification for stealing shit.
