The US Coast Guard received a call on Sunday from a boater about suspicious bales spotted floating about 19km off the coast of Orange County, south of Los Angeles, the US Border Patrol said. The US Coast Guard, Orange County Sheriff's Department and Border Patrol responded and recovered 180 bales of marijuana weighing 3,660 kg. 'This is unusual, you don't usually find a large quantity of marijuana like that,' said Mr Jerry Conlin, a spokesman for the San Diego sector of the US Border Patrol.[/quote] [url]http://www.straitstimes.com/BreakingNews/World/Story/STIStory_801523.html[/url] Fuck me all that weed

I wonder if police officers ever get tempted when they see a mother load of weed like that. It would be pretty easy to stuff a small amount in your sock or something.

After doing a quick google search for the average price of weed, It's worth about $34,000,000. Fuck.

That's what I call a true pirate's treasure.

reminds me of one time some dudes dad caught a shitload of weed fishing [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/dadcatchesweed.jpg[/IMG]

That picture reminds me of the time someone caught a dead body while catfishing in one of the local manmade lakes.

I sure wish some of that weed floated my way. I could do with some right now.

Image if you found just ONE of those bales

So, if the weed made it to shore, would that be called High tide?

[QUOTE=sHiBaN;36052922]Only children think that way when there are ways to obtain the drug legally.[/QUOTE] In California sure.

Its probably shitty mexican brickweed.

Just think of the debts that can be paid off by selling that stuff.

Heh, I saw the entire thing. I live right by Dana-point

[QUOTE=JWJ;36052084]the strange thing with these articles is that you know for a fact somebody probably got killed over this and there's now some huge shit fest in some group somewhere[/QUOTE] Yes, heads will roll (literally)

[QUOTE=sHiBaN;36052922]Only children think that way when there are ways to obtain the drug legally.[/QUOTE] everyone lives in california

[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;36052157]I don't think the small amount that will fit in your sock is worth risking your job[/QUOTE] It's California.

[QUOTE=W00tbeer1;36056082]I wouldn't even touch that shit if I found it as there is probably some drug cartel leader watching me.[/QUOTE] i really doubt the cartel is going to go through the effort to kill some random dude who found their weed (and most likely turned it in to the police) floating around in the ocean the only people who would have their life at risk are the mules who failed to pick it up
