Mexican Police Seize 121 Tons Of Marijuana In History’s Largest Drug Bust

If you engage in a bit of the wacky tobacco, you probably have a pretty good idea of what a gram of marijuana looks like -- maybe even an ounce. But even the most expanded mind would have trouble conceptualizing the sheer mass of 121.5 tons of marijuana. Mexican authorities are calling this haul "the largest seizure in the country's history of marijuana prepared and packed for sale and distribution."

- If prop 19 passes the drug cartels would no longer be making a profit off this stuff in California.

  Considering the cost of production though, it's pretty easy to write off.
  
  Couldn't have cost more than 30 or 40 G's to grow and package.

- This could save our economy. It's so absurd... i mean really, even politicans are admitting it - even if they are against it (which makes no sense). Let's end prohibition..

  we can attract more people by providing free weed... thus getting more people high... the more people we get high the better people will be... think of the possibilities... :D
  
  the only downside to this is the fact that almost every hospital/pharma will loose money on bills

- Ok I just want one of those bundles I won't even sell any of it. If I could buy local I would but the local is $20 a gram. I can get a half Once for that and get just as stoned. The problem is finding the local. Then getting ones moneies worth. I will always grow a little but I hate to take the chance of getting poped by the PoPo.

- they burned it all! i just, i mean i know incineration is the way to go to get rid of things, but this is was something people enjoyed burning themselves in much smaller portions. They.... burned 121.5 tons of pot. Put that up in the air... I can only imagine what that atmosphere in that area was like.

- 121 tons of marijuana, also known as 1% of Mexican marijuana traffic.
  
  In fact, I would bet money that the police chiefs these cartel leaders 'instated' as police chief were just given this marijuana as something they could tout as 'progress'. War on drugs, what a fucking joke...
