the 17-year-old called 911 to report that he had found several marijuana plants in the house he shared with his divorced father and younger siblings.

Sheriff's deputies found 14 marijuana plants in a hidden room in the garage, along with drug paraphernalia and loaded guns. They arrested the 38-year-old father when he returned home.

The unique misfortune of the Palestinian refugees is that they are a weapon in what seems to be a permanent war...today, in the Middle East, you get a repeated sinking sensation about the Palestinian refugees: they are only a beginning, not an end. Their function is to hang around and be constantly useful as a goad. The ultimate aim is not such humane small potatoes as repatriating refugees.

Indeed.  Could be an asshat kid that didn't get the car keys when he wanted them, to an asshat dad that constantly had druggies coming and going at all hours of the day and night and was neglectful to his kids.

No, I would probably try and help out his drug business to make it more successful at the expense of the for-profit prisons that have purchased more authoritarian government policy.

Yeah, probably - the idea of my dad growing pot is so horrendously embarassing that I'd take any reasonable action to stop him.

Possibly. It would probably depend a lot on what else was going on that was an outgrowth of that pot production. If it was significantly impacting my life or someone else in the family, then yeah.

Funnily enough I was present once when my father burned a small field of marijuana.  Very odd set of circumstances, but no one was hurt no were any police involved.

Yeah, very sad, in retrospect, though I knew nothing then.  Just burned it all up right there in the field.

That kid has no loyalty to la familia.

In all seriousness, my parents were/are the people to stand by the law, do what's right, follow the rules, etc. I can't imagine my church organist Dad deciding to grow & sell pot. I do now a guy whose dad does grow pot, but that's medical marijuana.

There is something oddly fascist about voluntarily surrendering your own flesh and blood to the authorities in the interest of complying with ignorant state/federal policy. People should avoid befriending this sort of individual.
