You know how cops are always busting people with houses full of marijuana plants? What if you did all of that but with potatoes instead of marijuana? What if you had an entire house full of grow lights and potato plants in buckets and then every inch of lawn on your property had potatoes and not a single blade of grass?

Would anyone care? Would the cops come along and put a stop to it? If not, how many more potatoes would you have to grow before something like that happened?

    Look man. You’re not getting it, ok?

    You’re thinking in terms of “Marijuanna is illegal, and potatoes are legal, therefore I can do whatever I want, and the cops can’t stop me.”

    Except here’s how things really work. Do you exist? Yeah? Well then the cops don’t give a FUUUUUCK about your rights, the law, or your life. You could die in their care. They don’t give a shit.

    They smash peoples doors down, and shoot the homeowners. Later to find out they weren’t even on the right STREET!

    It doesn’t matter that your acts are legal. Police are like what would happen if you mixed a bear, with a raccoon, with a chihuahua, with a fascist asshole.

    So…you still want to draw their attention just to point out legality?

        Hey man…if I pay for a haircut, I EXPECT a quality haircut!

        If the police mishandle a situation, and kill like 3 guys…who cares? Not MY money! Fuck em!
