The evil marijuana again, I feel safe now! The war on drugs was lost before it started, waste of time and money. Make it legal already. What’s the deal with possessing a bullet proof vest? Is it so it makes the guy easier to kill when they cops raid his house?

We used to Knit Blankets with Hemp Yarn back in ’43.

So the cops took some $20 an 1/8 shwag off the streets, big deal.

Hey CCO why don’t you do a Reality Check on how much money we waste every year on the fight against Marijuana every year and how much in tax payers money we waste every year in jail and prison, compared to the amount we make off of fines on this stuff every year? I am guessing that its probably 10 million plus we waste in one year compared to the possible million dollars that we make off of fines for this stuff alone every year?
I say just legalize Marijuana and make millions if not billions of dollars each year off of the taxes alone and we already have laws set up for Marijuana so its not like they have to make new laws for this stuff, since they already have them in place. Last time I checked they had DUI, which is driving under the influence, which covers alcohol and all drugs, legal and not legal. Well ok maybe one law that you have to put into effect and maybe possibly fight over and that is either make it 18 plus like cigarettes and or 21 plus like alcohol. But again this government isn’t exactly the smartest or the brightest light bulb on this planet.

Welcome to America, we are going to spend how much locking this guy up for how long ?

Good job boys in blue. More good Police work!!

Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time!

wooooow, they found 9 plants and assorted equipment for “MAKING THE DRUG”….LOL….ya think that “making the drug” is anything like simply growing a plant?….only a bunch of non-sensical sensationalists would suggest that the fore mentioned was a reasonable way to characterize the situation…..iI wouldn’t even doubt if the plants were each in the early stages of growth and useless………is there really anybody that smokes much less buys that mexican dirt weed?…..all smoking is bad for your lungs but it seems that cigs are far more dangerous than pot….i dont smoke or drink but i dont ever recall anybody who died from smoking pot but millions who died from smoking cigs.

MSP needed a big bust to deflect the mob beatings downtown. Im sure they have been watching for weed for a long time to see where it went. It was time for a good headline.

Send them back to Mexic.

Boy in Blue.

This goes beyond simply smoking a joint people. 268 lbs isn’t a “user” amount. Wake up. This stuff was smuggled in from Mexico by legitimate cartel members…Ya, the same ones who are killing innocent people all over our country, Mexico and even St. Paul. Three loaded handguns, smuggling and a bullet proof vest. What do you think they were up to?? Wake up. It’s much more complex than just weed.

268 pounds big deal!!! Let the guy go and end this stupid waste of time and money war on drugs!!! Nothing like big brother telling people what they can and cant do with their body’s!

“3200 block of 74th Avenue South in Brooklyn Park.” Really ??? Did Brooklyn Park annex Minneapolis/Richfield???
“Tools used to make the drug”- like clay pots, water , dirt, light. What moron wrote this? I’ve read police reports & know they aren’t the most eloquent people, but you’d think a reporter would edit out the really stupid stuff from the story.

what;s with the bullet proof vest, since when it became a crime to have one?
