Only in America can someone get thrown into jail for a f**king plant! Meanwhile, the streets are filled with f**king child molesters, rapists, and murderers. Yeah, grandma potsmoker is a HUGE threat to the general public./sigh
I guess America just wantes to make it look like they are doing something. I think that this is the reason why pot isn't legal in the US because anyone can grow it. Young or old.
This is the dumbest thing i have ever herd. First of all if she has one plant of marijuana it should not matter ,and anyone who thinks that she should get arrest is ignorant and does not know the reason behind why marijuana is illegal.I also agree with many people who posted before me.the propaganda that the Government has used to portray people who use or are under the influence of marijuana is completely wrong, and it does not make people go crazy it is more of a relaxant than something that would make a person go crazy and kill people. I think that this was just a waste of the tax payers money , because like spiritamx79 stated there are more dangerous people out there like rapist ,and murders
Pests don't eat cannabis?!?!? LOL, obviously you've never grown weed... f**k it, I say overgrow the government, they can't jail everybody.Watch: <a class="user" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wN2yV7f16Mg">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wN2yV7f16Mg</a> An acre of hemp produces 5 times as much paper as an acre of trees while only using 25% the energy, the only reason we can't get weed legalized is big corporations like Dupont and pharmaceutical companies that don't want to lose money when their products can be replaced with healthier more eco-friendly by-products of hemp. It's the world's strongest fiber and creates better ethanol than corn. Save the world, legalize marijuana.
Wow, pot is not even harmful nor addicting. Caffeine is more addictive than pot(yet coffee is the number one purchased beverage.) The government and corporate America banned pot because it would damage sales of a less than superior product that would make them more money. So the government spread rumors and propaganda stating that marijuana caused people to become mentally unstable and abnormal. If the US government would legalize marijuana they would be increasing their income enormously. Last year the government stated that marijuana sales topped $36 billion USD. So if it is that large of a cash crop and less dangerous and less expensive to produce than alcohol then why is it illegal. That number i am sure would be much higher if it was legal and available at a local store. This would STIMULATE the current economy by creating jobs, consumers would be spending more money, and the government would be getting taxes. There is also the fact that then the government could also control potency, making less potent plants increasing sales, or making more potent plants decreasing the overall consumed amount. The problem with the current government is that they are all too old and are too used to the myths that they were told. Although, I do not consume this product, i do believe that it should be just as legal as alcohol and cancer sticks.

Yes, but that would require actual work and possibly taking a risk.
