So far this morning, I’ve learned that police have given up on policing “traditional crimes” and now cannabis offenses. I think I know why. Look carefully at the picture above. Did you know that 75% of officers investigating cannabis farms get their hats blown off by large fans left running by thoughtless criminals? Have you ever tried to find a policeman’s hat in a giant room full of large cannabis plants? It is estimated that 56% of police officers’ time is spent looking for lost hats; many of them are never recovered. I think you know where I’m going with this – we need to make electric fans illegal.
