Law Enforcement Lurks

It makes sense that law enforcement would be on here. Allows then to catch the low hanging fruit growing in states that still have laws that monetize enforcement. They see it as easy money. If the laws in your area are still draconian silliness, it makes sense to be cautious.

Hello it's PVOG, just a shout to let you know there is Johnny Law lurking in this site. Please be careful, be leary of being baited into posting photos that may get you in trouble . Just saying, the world's tough enough without The Man trying to take your medicine away. Stay safe and stay smart, have a groovy day.
The folks I love are the ones who come on here talking about growing their tomatoes, now that always makes me laugh. Or the ones who come on asking how they can do things like get illegal seeds into their country. To each their own I suppose.

Be careful if you grow in less than perfect conditions. Anyone who knows can use the info as a bargaining chip with local authorities.

They'll get busted drunk driving then rat a neighbor. Someone's kid gets busted shoplifting, they turn on a grower for leniency.

And another thing, people are inherently social and love sharing secrets.

I know what you mean. I ended up winning tickets to watch Kim Mitchel and Bare Naked Ladies at a recording studio long after legalization. I also hold a prescription so I was legal before most yet after decades of being demonized by police and society found my self in a weird situation. As we stood outside the crowd formed and everyone was smoking cigarettes. Now it is legal in Canada to smoke anywhere you can legally smoke cigarettes but we did not light up. When driving home I was looking at my wife and we both realized how stupid we were. It was just decades of conditioning that kept us from doing what we legally could. Takes time to change ones thinking, glad that day has passed for me now. I keep my grow legal, don't pass the 4 plant max and understand that the police have no control over what I am doing. It is a great day to be alive.

Wow, thanks for telling us all of this, you two super-alarmist new guys! :roll:

Now I guess I'd better be extra careful, since my 4000-plant garden might be seen by some cops who are on here.

Ulp. :lol:

I've been posting here for over 14 years, and remember hearing about only 1 guy who got popped because of something he posted here.

Maybe they won't come for me if I back away from the keyboard....Better chop my plants down now to be safe. Oh wait, am I imagining this? Must be that evil devil weed. bongsmilie bongsmiliebongsmilie What was I talking about, I guess it wasn't important.

Always good advice, but I'm not really worried at all because I'm on the right side of the law in this endeavor. If that's not your circumstance you should be especially careful, though you would hope Johnny Law had better ways to spend his time you know he gets plenty bored.
I do have a legal garden here in MA, although I ran into someone in here that said things that perplexed me, and it turned into a situation I chose to disengage from. Not before I was told, if I had any plants that I wouldn't be able to take care of them anyway, (baiting me to post pics) and I think he slipped when he said, 'if I was able to have 12 plants, I'd blah, blah, blah,' well if your not a grower, why are you in here, and why are you quoting law and legalities if my state? S'why.i love the ignore button or whatever it is. Oh, and when I looked, the guy had magically disappeared, ignore button or no. Weird.

I guess that guy was one of the pigs that you are talking about. :lol:


In a strange turn of events, on this board I bust pigs! :bigjoint:

MAYBE --- just maybe, and only geo-identifiable posts of the largest grows in the strictest areas --- would law enforcement be interested in what we do here.
Especially now that so many places are legal to some extent, enforcement is more interested in large quantities of weed, or other substances like coke etc. - we're home brew in a budweiser world now.

been here 10 years, never had an issue, only ever heard of 1 story, and riu was brought up it wasnt because of riu

We dont currently have exif remover on site its something we are working on so remove your metadata.
Follow the rules, dont trade, gift or sell shit , why? less reason for legal issues and because usually the following:

You dont know who the fucker is on the other end of your conversation ive had so many complaints of people who thought they met their new best goddamn friend here and than viola what do you know massive fight breaks out a few months later and both parties become paranoid shitheads because they gave their real names and info out via pm. now theyre screaming and yelling and threatening eachother all over the forum doxxing eachother.
This happens all too often because people wanna try to sell , trade or gift seeds via pm

Keep your shit tight folks. dont give out your info ;)
