another example of why it's risky to go to hydro stores in non-med/legal states

[RetroGrow]

"Smart cops"=oxymoron.
As Alex Jones points out on "infowars", police work is one of the career choices that attracts psychopaths. They are a fraternity of psychopaths, playing Rambo, while they bully and harass the helpless, homeless, and the least dangerous. They are gutless thugs who shoot first and think later.
There is no more shooting to wound/stop a person. It's all out overkill, emptying their automatics to leave no witnesses/injured people to sue them, like the homeless guy they murdered in New Mexico.

I go to the hydro store but always park away from it and I use cash every time.

Ex-CIA? I'm not a lawyer, but that puts a whole new wrinkle about this story and motives really become muddled. I'm pretty sure at one point as federal government employees the Hartes were required to sign non-disclosure agreements as well as agree never to sue the government so their only legal recourse was to go after the local yokels through the open records laws.

They may have even been caught up in a stupid jurisdictional turf war, about who can do what, between the feds, staties, and county mounties too. Very complicated.

Bottom line, ALL pigs suck!

Personally I wouldn't trust some hydro shop owners not to be police informers.

Happens here all the time.

Therefore, no reasonable suspicion can be assigned to anybody visiting one, certainly not to the point of digging in their trash on that basis alone.

cops digging in your trash. happens more than you know. once your trash hits the streets, u give up any rights associated with it. shoot, a REAL skinny dude riding a bike makes regular stops in my dumpster. i have also seen various other strangers rummaging through. because it is streetside, there are no privacy rights associated with it. i don't mind. no grow stuff goes there and ima fan of recycling. i just let the hobos do it for me, lol.

correct.

I pay cash when visiting too, but the cop peering into the shop while I was in it as detailed on my thread, may suspect me or someone else for growing pot by just being in the store? Believe me, I have seen people in another store that almost certainly were not growing anything illegal, as they were yuppies who barely knew anything about horticulture. So you buy worm castings and you are assumed a pot grower? Sadly, I know this so-called justice system doesn't even know what justice means.

If I lived in a non legal/medical state I would purchase everything online using a prepaid Visa card and request discreet packaging from the vendors. I'm in a legal state with grow stores all over but still buy most everything online. I get it cheaper than the grow store and don't have to leave my house. Gas is expensive. I get most things I order in 2-3 days. Order in advance and buy bulk. Always good to go!

 

[buttbrain]

Yup NEVER can be toooooo careful.

 

[tokersmoke]

This will really open your eyes.How do wet tea leaves look like mj?The police busted his door down seven months later for visiting a store.A store approved by the state.A store that pays taxes and has legal products for legitimate uses.IM in a similar state.My state has ONE hydro store.Best believe i usually get a ride to the store from a friend.This makes me paranoid.PHONES,Internet,mail they are watching it all.Does using TOR browser make posts anonymous?

You look into a cops eyes and its empty and cocky. Theres no life there. You can see the emptiness in that darkened gaze.
Like Phil from Pantera says, "His dick his gun, his brain his badge!"
The U.S is a breeding ground for gutless thug, murderous, anti-civilian bullies.
With a gun and the full authority of the crooked U.S Government and all its allies.
To push back is to be met with brutal force. Thats what they are trained for. Even when you arent resisting, they will put the cuffs on wrong so it hurts like a mother fucker. They'll stick there knee in your spine or in your ribs with their full body weight on it. They love to get those cheap shots in whenever they can. Its in their nature. Thats why their cops.
Everyday they wake up and just hope they can discharge their weapons and get a medal and a pat on the back.
They are so bored in these little towns that they run anyone out that they dont like or assume is doing something.
Theres nothing for them to do so they bully the teenagers and 20 somethings to death!
If you smoke, they will ruin your life anyway they can. Doesnt make sense. The poor kids sell tree to get the clothes and food and car that the single mom cant provide for them. The kids try and come up like the rich kids and get squashed by the cops. The kids would have spent that money and boosted the economy and would have been better for it on every level.
A city devided against itself cannot stand. The U.S is doomed!
Police is the true Public Enemy #1. Imploding from the inside. They are the true terrorists. That Boston Marathon Bomber used a bomb. The police use the system and there weapons. They are a trained army bent on destruction. They work as 1 accord. Something the people will never do unless they get a paycheck week to week. Just like the cops do. All civilians will ever do is burn down their own city. Hurt their own people. Rioting like mindless fools! Unity is stronger than force. Something that the cops use to their full advantage to unleash full power and authority over those that are persued by them.

I hate going to the hydro store! Now they put cameras on every light, in every direction, in every intersection, so they can track your path town to town. WTF?!?!?

What a bunch of crap...

An individual criminal can harm a hand full of people.
Governments alone can brutalize thousands or millions.

Anybody know that the term "COP" is an acronym?
Citizen
On
Patrol

Why then do these supposed authoritarian figures call all others not in their fraternity "civilians"?

They need to change their motto to...
TO COLLECT & OPPRESS.

 

[MJPassion]

This is such bullshit...

I wonder how many more such raids are made?
Then
I wonder how many of these raids actually turn up "criminal activity" related to growing cannabis?

I live in a small community where the cop/citizen ratio is about 1/150. Nation wide the average is around 1/1000. The pigs here are in it for the $$$ & nothing more but they're still oinkaz wallowing in filth!

Nice acronym for COP. Cop was originally derived from "copper" as in the material of which police badges were made during the old bootlegger/prohibition days for alcohol.

 

[MJPassion]

I hadn't heard that one yet...
Thanks for the history lesson.

 

[that smell]

Since 9-11 and the wars in iraq and afganistan , the abuse of power has become worse. Anytime there is a war the military lowers its standards HUGELY so they can have more cannon fodder. The police forces rely heavily on the military for candidates. Sooooo... you have a severly underqualified soldier who could have NEVER made it into a peacetime military, who has seen the violence of war( and the total power of a soldier in war) and after they get out of military the next logical step is police work. Gung ho mf ers want to keep that total control. And they do! I dont think they are stupid, just ruthless sociopaths

 

[stoned-trout]

why do you think a lot of cops were soldiers...already done some killing ,take orders without question..just new enemies,,now its us........the bad part is the pigs believe in what their doing.....that's why I don't ever get along with cops...cops are never there to help but seem to appear magically to arrest lol.. fuck em I have no use for cops and have never called em or told em shit but my name and ss number.... and to fuck off .cops are mindless arresting/shooting machines who don't care much..i have had cops arrest me when they knew it was bullshit and say they don't care let the judge sort it out...my youth involved a lot of police encounters lol....now I am way low key... even had cops cuff me and friend drive us to the edge of their area an say they could of just killed us and let us go instead.....SML
