Authorities said they arrested 27 people and confiscated 14.9 tons of marijuana on Thursday in an investigation into alleged illegal grow operations in Perris.

A honey oil lab as well as 37 guns were also discovered after 48 search warrants were served in the investigation, according to a mid-afternoon tweet from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.

Drove past this on my way to work this morning,there was a shit load of cops on site. It's not like they've been trying to hide the grow. Bunch of green houses and right on a main street. Been able to smell the bud for a couple months when passing the location

There are signs for dispensaries up and down the 215 in Perris. Maybe they thought it was legal.....[emoji2369][emoji2369]

Almost as many as on the 10 thru the Palm Springs area. Get off at Harley Knox ,there's 5 or 6 in about a square block area. The city of Perris is promoting itself as cannabis business friendly

How many tons of illegal drugs do you think Riverside County consumes in a day? Then Orange County.

A large amount the heroin addicts were addicted to pain meds and now what do we do all of them. Not a good situation.

Im pretty disappointed at the state of the world when i drive down the 10.
I dunno, i just cant seem to be "ok' with all these new weed businesses all over. It has just made marijuana so accepted now.
Im still not cool with it.
Im sure people will disagree.
The next generation of young adults are all ready lazy enough.
Now they can you the 'its legal" bullshit to try and convince everyone its ok.
Am i the minority in thinking this way?

I'm kinda with you on that as well. I don't want my kids thinking its OK and just a past time for recreation. To me, its a lifestyle. My stoner friends have all turned out to nothing in life and just haters in general.

But the other half of me is truly fucking jealous that I'm missing the cash fall on this! If I could only go back in time.........

Anyone else see that large grow house on the corner of Needles Highway and the 40? Tons of A/c, water tanks. Fully secured, cameras, water tanks. Looks like big bucks.

By the way. Im ok with peopke smoking it.
The glorification is where im not cool with it.

I agree, it's like booze.. Has a time and place, but you can't do it all day everyday like some people I know are doing.

As long as democrats continue to run the state, which is likely to be a very long time, I predict it getting worse. I wish some Democrats would look around and wake the fuck up.

Todays pot is not cheech and chongs pot. It is much stronger and doesnt seem to be regulated. I think the health implications of the new pot is not known. It is like the difference between sucking on coca leaves and cocaine.

After a year long moratorium and "study period" the city of San Bernardino has allowed a very few to reopen. To date, only one has that I know of. It is huge inside, probably 100 feet of counter space plus a huge bar area where you can eat drink and smoke like any other sports bar. You are paying state excise tax of 15%, AND state sales tax of 8%, plus a city tax of 6%.
This is on top of prices that are double or more of street prices. More than $50 for 3.5 grams is kinda crazy. But everything is in fancy tamper proof containers with psuedo documentation of strength and purity LOL.
The line of people waiting to buy rivals Disneyland. Not unheard of to wait 45 minutes or more. But you can order online for easier pickup. :eek:

Totally get what youre saying and I am all for folks who partake. No problem. I guess I just associate it with friends that have fallen into its lifestyle and never got out.

Me and my buddy were in Laughlin this week and we were talking when we passed that big Nevada Dispensary. Think how many people did jail time for something that is now legal?Just crazy. Probably this is what prople were saying back when Prohibition was lifted.

Amazing how many people think that just because it’s “legal” it means you can convert a bedroom into a grow room and start a business. I have been on countless quotes where people want to do just that. Most of them are stoners that have no clue on the budgets required to condition these operations.

I don't believe that. The practice by politicians and and the media of associating legal pain med use with overdoses and heroin is devastating the lives of chronic pain victims that seek legal treatment.

Your link disproves your assertion that "a large amount of the heroin addicts were addicted to pain meds". From your link:

As of 2018, the NIDA estimates that between 8 percent and 12 percent of patients in the U.S. who are prescribed opioids develop a use disorder.

Of those patients that develop a use disorder, 4 percent to 6 percent eventually turn to heroin...


Read that carefully.

The article says 8-12% of those prescribed opioid pain medicine develop a use disorder. A subgroup of 4-6% of that 8-12% become addicted to heroin.

Put another way, out of 1,000 patients given prescription opioids, 80 to 120 of them develop addiction issues. Of those 80 to 120 affected, somewhere between 3 and 5 of them turn to heroin.

That's why your comment that "A large amount of the heroin addicts were addicted to pain meds" is wildly inaccurate. Your incorrect perception is exactly the sort of misconceptions that abound in the discussion about opioid misuse, and I take exception to those beliefs because they affect me directly.

At my last visit to my pain doctor, whom I never see, the nurse practitioner informed me my fentanyl dose was being cut 25%. There was no conversation, no assessment of my issues. She said "that's what the doctor wants, and he runs his practice how he runs his practice". That's not treatment, it's BS.

I have two failed knee replacements, a torn rotator cuff that I fear having surgery to fix, a recently replaced hip which hasn't healed properly, systemic inflammatory arthritis, and a condition called chondrocalcinosis, which has deposited significant calcium growths in all of my joints and produces nonstop pain.

I'm posting this from bed, because yesterday I moved and then replaced all of the furniture and other stuff from a bedroom so it could be recarpeted. The day before that, I pressure washed the pool deck, patio, and furniture.

My wife has company arriving tomorrow for a one week stay, and I wanted things to look nice for her. Today the pain is so bad, I just gave up and got back in bed. I'm only 62, have worked hard my entire life, and now the only way I can do things which everyone else would consider routine is by taking pain meds.

Because of the "opioid crisis", the amount of meds I've been prescribed has decreased 75% in the last two years. Other people I know with chronic pain issues are being similarly affected.

So when I see inaccuracies about legal pain medications, I speak up. I'm not intending to single you out or criticize you unfairly. I just want people to know the coin has another side.

This all started when Hospitals had to treat for pain to get paid. My wife was deeply involved in this and never supported the pain program because she felt the drugs were more trouble then the actual patient surgery. All hospitals had to have a program in place to lower the pain scale of a patient. Well 20 plus years later and we have a big problem.

I know what you're talking about. During that period there were copies of the 1-10 pain scale posted in every room, and underneath they pretty much said "You deserve to be pain free. If you need more pain medication, ask your nurse.

I could get 4 mg of IV Dilaudid every four hours if I wanted it. That much was a real clock stopper.

A couple years ago, took my wife to the ER with a migraine in the middle of the night.

She was barfing/dry heaving, couldn’t open her eyes due to light, couldn’t handle any sounds/noise and in a lot of pain.

The first person we saw was an addiction counselor, warning us of the dangers of abusing pain meds.

It was all I could do to keep from throwing her out on her ass while my wife was clearly suffering.
