Investigators found more than tomatoes growing in one man's garden on the Westside.
Edmund Garuti is facing cultivation of marijuana charges.
Police found the secret garden with three pots of marijuana growing behind a home on 110th Street, just off Timuquana Road.
Garuti told police he planted the pot for personal use as "it was getting too expensive to buy." He said he's been smoking pot for about thirty years.

Yeah.
That's fucking gay. Now they're going to bankrupt him with court fees and (if he wants a decent one) lawyer fees.

I hope they take it easy on him... the laws in the states are so backwards and f*%(^ up... When I was at work one day, cops came and took about a dozen plants i had growing. They told my wife: "We're not saying you can't grow them, but we've been receiving complaints." Cops said this to my wife, and I never heard from them again... Until I tried to renew my firearms license... than was fun :rollseyes:

Ontario, Canada... I honestly thought my wife made up the thing about the cops up until they brought it up during my firearms renewl... Now I have a stipulation on my license that I have to stay aaway from drugs... hmmm wtf? I asked why I, someone with an extensive experience in weed can't smoke it if I wanna have a gun license, while anyone else can go ahead... they looked at me weird, and I just said nevermind. Like they're gonna test me for pot. Honestly what is with this "government of the people"?

Yeah, I guess if I lived in the States I'd be in jail with my children taken away from me and my life would be pretty much destroyed... This is why, if the United States government were some sort of object, I would piss all over it. I really hope that someday, U.S. citizens get their government back... maybe someday after a bloody revolution... that's the only way crooked, dictatorships get taken down right- well, unless a bigger country comes along and takes it down citing "weapons of mass destruction" or "support of terrorist activities"
