Memory Hole: Can't See the Forest For the Tree

See what happens when you smoke the demon weed?

"Two charged with growing marijuana

Boston police arrested two people in Dorchester Thursday night for allegedly growing a 5-foot marijuana plant in their backyard. Police said in a statement that officers responded to 37 Ellington St. shortly before 10 p.m. for a drug call and were told that the plant belonged to residents on the first floor. First-floor resident Joanna Read, 26, allegedly told officers that she does “smoke weed’’ and later said that the plant was hers, according to the statement. Another resident, Nadir Khan, 26, later told officers that the plant belonged to him, police said. Khan and Read were both charged with cultivation of a Class D substance."  

They must have thought that voters decriminalized pot with the vote when all we did was make possession of small amounts a fineable offense.
