The Postal Services new trick. "Acidental Punture"

I have been hearing things about the post office "accidentally puncturing" the box and contents inside. This would allow them to smell the content inside allowing reasonable suspicion for a search of the package. The U.S. postal service knows they can not search a package with out a warrant or have a dog smell it for no reason.

Solution. Put the box in something not punctured easily. get some plastic containers or use two or three boxes.

Been going on, that I know of, since the 90's in Canada. Put stuff in a solid container, that cannot be easily punctured. Peace GS

Wow, fuckers. Thanks for the tip. I would have to think anything found via "accidental puncture" wouldn't hold up in court. But they squeeze most people to plead anyway.

In Canada, it is postal workers that do it to steal(Couriers services too}. Who's gonna tell on them. Here ,they can only really hold the sender responsible. Anyone could send you weed in the mail and dime you, so they cannot allow it. Peace GS

sent a large box a few years ago and the recipient said there was a huge hole in the box, like you could put your hand through it and it stunk like weed... but nothing ever came of it fortunately.

They got this idea from Fed Ex/UPS, who can search any package that is partly "opened". That's a lot, since they smash half the packages they handle, especially UPS.

I would think the P.O. would love growers, kinda like the power company does in oakland.
