A bit harder now that he is facing multiple felonies charges. So I don’t know which I prefer to think in this case. Poor impulse control and stupidity or complete arrogant narcissism to think that this was a good idea.
Better than I can do, for SURE. A guy I work with spends $200 wk on it, which I laughed at for an hour because I thought he was joking.
He wasn't
Do they do this kind of stupid stuff too?
Naw, they live in Colorado where having weed on the car is assumed, not criminalized.
Sure my man how about the many other more dangerous drugs that kids do . Weed is Childs play in regards to what we all should worry about. I'd rather have my son have a edible or a toke than a fentanyl laced opiate . Or having him drunk behind the wheel. Maybe you can put on greatest American hero outfit and go champion good decisions.
Maybe he was worried about inflation and shortages.
Are your friends wiz khalifa and snoop dogg?
As a professional grower out west, it's guys like that that put dinner on my table and will put my kids through college 🙃
Unfortunately, laws don't work that way. Until legislation is changed at a state and federal level, these things will happen.
While I do agree it needs to be legalized, people that deal drugs very seldom are involved in just the sale of marijuana. I have yet to be involved in a drug bust that was just someone selling weed. And to be honest, the majority of cops I work with want nothing to do with weed offenses (they rarely get prosecuted anyways). It's used as a means to bring down the individuals selling illegal firearms, human trafficking, and many other major offenses.

Maybe I sound like a nutcase but I say pretty much anything in Tally should have been given a pass last night : )

A speeding ticket is careless. A stolen gun and 3 pounds of weed is gang banging stuff and will get you jail time every time. What was he going to do with that gun?
Not the case. I didn't read the article but they only get you with intent to distribute if you have the other articles to indicate that... baggies, scale, bank rolls...stuff like that
So then lots of dummies in Colorado who ride around with stolen guns?
Stoned is one thing and stupid is another.
You can't say truthful things like that, people in here will just call you names.
I am a homicide detective. People who call marijuana dealing a "victimless crime" would be horrified to know the percentage of homicides that are marijuana related. I mean truly horrified.
Sadly, I've seen it many of times and for some reason it still amazes me.
I have been trying to process this. I can’t. I just can’t. Pound a week? Holy shit. I could never do that because I’d be too stoned to keep smoking. Your friends have a problem. Or are a new step on the evolutionary chain. I don’t know. But that’s insane.
It’s a pound between the two of them. But yea, it’s insane. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen them not stoned.
Just a poor choice of words on my part. i should have said foolish.
I can't say what his intentions were, but he clearly wasn't using his head.
I was not downplaying his actions, at all.

I can easily see a racial angle, but I like to wait for facts before jumping to a conclusion.
The angle, would be a case of DWB, though. You see a Black dude driving a Vette and decide to run his plates? I didn’t see any mention in the article about any behavior that warranted running his plates. Then like the other guy said, using the smell of weed as an excuse to search people and property has started to be nixed in a number of states. Marijuana criminalization is a dumb law that is all about institutionalized slavery.
That being said, Nigel should have taken his opportunity and never looked back. Whether it’s his drugs and gun or someone else’s, it shouldn’t have been in his car. If he was smart with his money, he should be very rich. Move yourself to a state where it’s legal, or get a medical card. Buy a legal gun. All very simple actions.
On the surface it's inexplicable that Nigel would put himself in this situation but then there is the reality of youth gangs in this area running drugs, commiting crimes and shooting each other on a weekly basis. It appears Nigel was drawn into that cultural norm. I believe it's driven by a sad history of poverty, racial conflict, hopelessness and broken families. Solutions are hard to come by, we should let Nigel have his day in court before reaching conclusions.
I work in the recreational and medical thc market as a scientist.
There are 1360g in that 3 lbs.
Of course quantity consumed is highly user dependent but most 'servings' are between 1/3 of a gram and 1 gram. That math works out to 1360-4080 'servings'.
Most heavy consumers I know will tell you 'flower is for pu--ies' and opt for concentrates where the thc concentration is generally greater than 90%. It's much easier to carry around a 90%+ concentrate than 3 pounds of flower.

My older son, who isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer, was in court a few years ago and my wife sat in on the morning session. From what she told me of the RANK STUPIDITY of some of these people they were parading in there was unbelievable. If I was a judge I’d consider putting a bullet in my head.
Yep, common sense is frequently in short supply. It's how they wind up in trouble to begin with. You just want to shake them and say WTH were you thinking.
