We’re dealing with organized efforts now, not just a couple of hippies living off the land and making some cash on the side.—
Mark Rey, U.S. Agriculture undersecretary, on the use of flying drones to track down marijuana growers operating in remote California woodlands.
We are in the middle of two armed conflicts where American lives are at risk on a daily basis and this is how we deploy our military and reconnaissance resources? Hell, why stop at just finding these sites with the drones? They should just load up some Hellfire missiles on those Predators and take out the fields and growers as they discover them, without having to wait for a pesky court ruling. If they’re going to call it a “War on Drugs” giving me some fucking explosions for Christ sake.
