We'd far rather burn up money and medicine. The story is 30 thousand plants found, then a few hundred, the value estimated from 2 million to 40 million. Seems law enforcement and the DEA can't do math very well. They burned truckloads of it a few miles away at the Sheriff's department. BECAUSE DRUGZZZZZZ!!!!!

Residents are SHOCKED, SHOCKED I tell you! Even though TN grows 13% of the nations cannabis.

Even though it saves the lives of babies with seizures, and helps people with cancer and PTSD and all sorts of ailments, even though pills and meth are destroying lives in Grundy County that might be okay if they could have a little weed the same way they can have a little beer here.

There is no dentist in the county. Jobs are scarce. People are depressed and there's not mental health care available to most. The value of all crops ( legal ) grown in the county is about 8 million. We could use the revenue.

BUT BURN UP THAT MONEY AND MEDICINE!!!! CUZ WE IZ THE SOUTH AND WE LIKE YOU TO SUFFER!

The South is INSANE.

I am working desperately to get out of this state and move where there are 3 things: compassion, intelligence and FREEDOM.

I can't wait to be back in the United States of America again. The Confederacy is killing me.


EDIT TO ADD: Glad your sister got her medical card! Sorry to have missed the congrats. I hope she gets a great appetite and is not in pain anymore!
