this is right down the road from where I live.I know a lot of people who were waiting on that shit cause the last batch went really fast.If it was the same stuff that had been flooding the area I wouldn't really call it "high grade" like the cops love to call anything not brown dirt weed,it was good green bud hats all but no way it was selling for 7500 a lb thats just fucking nuts.QPs were about 800$

"About 100 pounds of the drug were seized Friday from a Highland home in a joint investigation"
I love puns.

If they over-exaggerated it @ $7,500 a lb., that means they were probably really selling for $5,000 or so. Still high, but that's N.Y. for ya.

Doesn't NY have pretty lenient laws on MJ, compared to the rest of the states?

micro- there a re some states with more harsh and some with less harshMJ penalties then NY.Under a OZ is just a simple traffic ticket but above that is a misdemeanor.But always remeber that NY has the the rockefeller drug laws which IMHO are some of the worst in the country,mandatory minimums and all kinds of other crazy BS.FAMM always has New York pretty high on their list of worst states and whenever I hear the topic of drug law reform brought up, even on a national level NYs rockefeller laws are almost always mentioned as the most draconian example of laws that leave no room for judges and others to give alternate sentences like rehab and/or therapy.

I was talking about the prices they quoted in the article. The pot laws laws are posted here though:

Yeah, I read that NORML site a few weeks ago. I was comparing state to state and thought I recalled NY seeming to be not so bad. But I didn't know about those rockefeller drug laws. Thanks for bringing that up. Good point.
