Soory. If I'm walking in the woods, and I find ripe buds, and no one's shot me yet, I'm snipping. No two ways about it. At least one of my pockets would be stuffed with bud. And I'd prolly come back for more.

It hasn't happened yet. And it ain't likely to happen. I'm sure most growers who are serious about their crop grow in places where a person like me is not likely to pass. And I think the guy in the thread start - who hopped someones fence and found a patch in their field - is in the wrong.

And I know you outdoor growers hate people who, like me, have no problem with sampling your crop on national forest property. For all intents & purposes, in your eyes I'm a thief. In my eyes I picked flowers in the woods, and feel just as guilty about it as I would had they been Arrowleaf Balsamroot or Lupine. (And the legal penalties for removing plants from national forest property are much worse than the penalties for mere cannabis possesion!)
