BF2S Forums Offical Marijuana Thread

The seedlings from my first tomato garden. Why is this in the marijuana thread? This is practice for my marijuana garden someday.

Evidence that the major crime groups are working together suggests Europe’s huge cocaine market has grown large enough to sustain its major players alongside each another. South American cartels in countries such as Colombia prefer to export cocaine to Europe because it avoids the heavily policed US border and dealing with the violent Mexican cartels.

Gibbons said that cocaine is now widely used throughout UK society, challenging outdated claims that it remains the preserve of the middle classes.

In August the home secretary, Priti Patel, urged police to “make an example” of middle-class cocaine users in a new crackdown, promising to “name and shame” wealthy users.

“It’s a drug used by everyone from the highest levels of society to the lowest levels of society. It is no longer the drug for people with a lot of money behind them,” said Gibbons.

tl;dr of both articles: cocaine is shipped pretty directly now, in vast quantities, from bolivia/colombia to europe, or to west africa failing that. the level of organized crime in europe is now such that it rivals the US market. therefore the cocaine supply trade skips the violent central american/mexican cartels and all of the drug violence there, which services drugs to the US border (including weed, which is by far their biggest drug in bulk, and heroin).

cocaine is also commonplace amongst all social classes and backgrounds. pretty much like i've said before, with minor quibbles over my choice of phrasing (i meant it's prevalent in every socioeconomic class rather than saying literally everyone takes it; that said, it's still a gigantic market and many, many people do take it).

This means that UK gangs are working in tandem with groups like Italy’s powerful ’Ndrangheta mafia clan, which controls much of Europe’s cocaine trade.

Such a relationship allows British-based groups to tap into the huge buying power and contacts of one of the world’s richest criminal groups. In 2013, Europol estimated the ’Ndrangheta’s turnover was £44bn — greater than McDonald’s and Deutsche Bank combined.

yes, the italian mafia still hurts people. yes, UK gangs still fight. the albanian mafia has taken over the entirety of the UK drugs game, edging out the somalians, who previously edged out the yardie jamaicans ... etc. but this violence is limited to gang-on-gang violence, and is nothing like the scale and atrocity of the mexican cartels in their destabilized narco state.

yes, narco states are a human (and thus avoidable) tragedy. the war on drugs is a failure and is bad. demand for cocaine has only grown in north america, despite the fact you can probably still smell the blood on it as it arrives in el paso, TX, or whatever. it isn't working.

but my cocaine is very much ethically sourced. in fact i think my dealer has started offering organic ... guarantees that % of proceeds go to the farmers ... etc.

So dumb that a state is wasting its time with this shit.

Funny thread

"I got caught with weed last night"
https://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=127531

Thread is 12 years old. The funny part of the thread is that the user who got caught is in North Carolina. It is still illegal to have marijuana in North Carolina.

All of those nice "gun in your mouth at 55" green and grey states.

I was in bed last night and this whiff of marijuana smell came into my room from outside. Filled the whole house.

I am not sure what needs to be done about pot smokers making places stink.

You know I totally forgot people actually have Chimneys. I haven't seen one in so long. My house has one but it was closed off decades ago.

A former Durham police sergeant won a partial victory in the NC appeals court Tuesday after being fired for letting an armed suspect smoke marijuana if he agreed to surrender peacefully.

In June 2016, Julius Smoot barricaded himself in an apartment and gave Durham police a grim warning: Let him see his wife and son in 10 minutes or he would shoot himself in the upstairs bedroom.

The officers, there to serve an arrest warrant, called the only hostage negotiator on-duty — Sgt. Michael Mole’, who arrived in five minutes.

Mole’ spent two hours talking to Smoot, then 29, trying to keep him alive. During that time, the suspect’s gun fired accidentally.

Finally, Smoot told Mole’ he wanted to smoke a marijuana cigarette, and the officer agreed as long as Smoot gave up.

Smoot, while in handcuffs, smoked the “blunt” he kept behind his ear — which ultimately got Mole’ fired from the Durham Police Department.

Pretty amazing bad judgement call for whoever fired that cop. Absolute pig man mentality to want to go back on your word after the guy surrenders.

Manhattan’s troubled Washington Square Park has reached a new low — with brazen drug dealers illegally selling weed from tables laden with pre-rolled joints and jars of pot conveniently labeled so choosy customers can select their favorite strains.

Five separate groups of weed vendors offered their wares in broad daylight around the fountain across from the park’s famed arch as tourists, families and New York University students packed the plaza in Greenwich Village on Sunday afternoon.

Entrepreneurs. Providing an in demand service while the government fails to set up a system for legal sales.

I have been a bender this past week. Finally ran out of weed. Just have to finish this bottle and I can start my recovery.

Also i woke up today with a tough.

LMAO I used to drink that stuff as a child

It's good for soothing your throat after bong hits. I prefer wine.

it’s time to make a pasta sauce!

I found a bottle of unopened red wine in my fridge.

why are you putting red wine in the fridge? quite a plebian thing to do.

Good shot: 3/4th sambuca, 1/4th baileys, a drop of cherry liquor.

It sounds disgusting but is nice i swear.
