I'm also pretty surprised there's been no commentary on this one (flaming or genuine). The notion that: even amidst a war on drugs, the best way to be a patriot (in the war on terror) is to grow your own weed... that irony isn't worth some batting around? That, when it comes to the relationship between what we do for sport being directly linked to what we believe is trying to kill us, we're in a rock-pushing crisis of existential design? Buy American, y'all. This is one of the best concept pieces I've read in a while. Lots of dots connected (but those connections still highly debatable).

No comments? Does no one care about the 4th amendment? I'm surprised. Where's Mdahmus? Loudmouth?

All of this wiretapping, internet monitoring, utilities monitoring, etc. is scary. Hopefully things will change after the election. (But I won't hold my breath) And nice syllogism by the way.

just to play devil's advocate here (because i do think this is a violation of privacy), i can imagine the justification for keeping it "low-key" would be to not alert drug growers of the new apd methods.
