Ok u stay in your house and be scared meanwhile I will be out enjoying our forest
I believe you misunderstood my comments; either that or you're just being a smart ass.
I'm not the least bit fearful of a pot grow in the woods, but I
would move away from it just to avoid any potential confrontation.
My entire point was that American's should be doing their
growing as legal as possible, and not be out clearing new
timber growth and leaving their trash behind.
Dut, I literally live
in the Pac. NW rainforest country
just south of Canada. I'm also a primitive bowhunter, and
have hunted these hills/mtns for many years. Seen dozens
of grows on State and Federal land, and never once had an issue
with a grower.
Most of those grows were under 50 plants, and generally
belonged to locals. They'd go in the Spring and plant seeds
along the edge of a 2-3 year old clearcut, but they don't
run water lines or damage the forest at all.
In Calif., the medical laws allow for quite a few plants, and most
anyone can get a medical card. I don't care if they grow their
hearts out, just so long as they grow on their property, as
the law allows.
Got nothing to do with a fear of anything.
One good reason to do your panning a ways from a grow is
that cats, especially bobcat, love the smell of pot. It's as bad,
or worse, than catnip, and they'll roll all over it given a chance.
This means the odds are greater that there would be cougar
or bobcat close by.
Bending over with a pan in my hand makes me look like prey,
but if I gotta look like prey I'm going to at least apply the knowledge
I've gained through a lifetime spent trapping, fishing and hunting
in the woods and deserts from Ariz. to Canada.
FWIW, I've trapped many, many Bobcat using a skunky MJ
bud inside of a 35mm film canister with holes in the lid as a lure.
Never run into one of those huge grows done by the Mexicans,
but were they to plant one in this area, and the local people
found 'em...well, it would be...bad. If the Darrington boys
caught 'em, they'd likely be found with their plants trashed (or
swiped), and the Mexican illegals stripped to their drawers,
chained to a tree with honey all over 'em; a most uncomfortable
way to spend time in Black Bear country!
Got no issue with pot; just with the huge grows done in State
and Federal forest lands by illegal aliens.
Do you understand now?
