No one told them about the dangers of overspray? Stupid men.

Round Up... So shall we count the cancers?
All for three plants, which wouldn't have got the growers much of a hand smack anyway! Talk about a waste of money...

As the guy said if the cops just knocked on the door and asked if they could remove the plants they would have ... so a no brainer question, which would be cheaper, half a tank of gas for a cop car or half a tank of gas plus spray for a helicopter which we as tax payers are financing!

Every year the cops would have a big cull on a ridge where we lived...use a chopper to find the plants, infra red I think. Then they'd pull them all up and burn them. A workmate lived on the end of the ridge, and one day his wife rang up - there was a chopper outside the kitchen window, looking at a couple of plants in his garden ! They must've decided they were medicinal and flew away...but he moved them to a more secluded spot after that.
Yeah, just a nod nod, wink wink...make sure they are gone when we come around tomorrow would have been better.

Huge waste of time & money, how idiotic. Blatant stupidity.
High time we were all allowed to grow a few plants for our own use - medicinal or otherwise.

police have been given 'discretion' as an option for smaller amounts.
three plants is small. even if popo rolled up the drive and found them.

Commissioner of Police was on the radio few years back saying that if we got rid of alcohol we could get rid of 80% of the police force. NZ needs to be more Liberal like the Netherlands, as long as you're doing no harm to anybody else you can do what you like.
