Not a bad idea. It's a shame they didn't take care of the smell.
It's a story that seems to be everywhere but this link has a "New and Improved Cocaine Submarines" slideshow and what's cooler than those? I wonder when they'll get missile technology and shoot that shit through my window
? Call me stoopid but sometimes I do like this war on drugs.
Not Oregano: Italian Police Find Pot Farm in Abandoned Rome Subway
Italian police said they have discovered $3.7 million-worth of marijuana in a sprawling, sophisticated pot farm hidden deep in an abandoned, Mussolini-era section of Romes subway system. Authorities said they stumbled onto the find after police on regular patrol in the area noticed the scent of marijuana wafting from a section of the subway tunnels that reportedly were abandoned during the Second World War. Officers followed their noses through what turned out to be a hidden door in a brick wall Saturday and found a large, highly-sophisticated pot growing operation with hundreds of plants lined down the tunnels, precise scales on work desks and a fully functional lighting system, according to a statement and video posted online Monday by Italys Guardia di Finanza. Police also discovered several trash bags full of what appeared to be marijuana plants as well as bags of smoke-ready pot.
In all, the Italian police said they confiscated approximately 750 pounds of narcotics, worth an estimated $3.7 million on the street. The alleged owner of the farm, who was not identified, was taken into custody, the Guardia di Finanza statement said. It was a very organized group, which had invested significantly, Col. Stefano Corsi told The New York Times. It was a regular business. It was a very sophisticated operation.
