PreMed_Gunner, I wouldn't have expected a post like that from a soon-to-be officer type. I could see some UNEDUCATED ENLISTED guy saying that, but not someone with your upbringing. Of course, I'm not insinuating that you'd smoke pot as a commissioned officer, maybe you'd just like to have the setup to grow/sell pot? (... in a country in which it is legal to grow of course). If the rest of you are wondering where I am going with this, there was a post a little while back where PreMed shared his true feelings about the military's enlisted force. In a nutshell, he pretty much asserted that enlisted members were uneducated and their use of profanity was expected because of their inability to effectively express themselves. He believes enlisted members join the military because it is the only job they can get. He called us dirtbags in so many words, IMHO. Am I correct in assuming that PreMed is/was a pot smoker? I wonder if the military knows of his longing for a residental pot farm? (... in a country in which it is legal to grow of course). I bet they would like to know. Amazing, growing a F^*#ING plant is illegal here in the US. No, what IS F^*#ING amazing is how someone can try to belittle the backbone of the military as a whole and then post something like this all the while maintaining he is superior to his undereducated enlisted counterparts. You Sir, are a Hypocrit. B_S |

Fucking OwneD!!!!! |

Thats some funny shit right there! |

|
Why is being opposed to a stupid war(the War on Drugs) supported by the ignorant citizens of this country being a hypocrite? |
|||
|
It's a shame that the guy got busted. Now, I'm going to step out of this thread because apparently some children are up after their bedtime starting flame wars.
|

Dude - that is AWESOME!
Next to a missile silo - or a lime stone cave - i would want that! |
|
It's not a stupid war and it needs to be fought. Drugs do massive damage to peoples lives and our country. |

It IS a stupid war, genius. Pot is illegal, alcohol is not. Which one is more destructive? Which one is physically addictive? Which one results in more accidents and deaths? Which one kills more people from its direct use? All the war on drugs has accomplished is to create an enormous, never ending criminal element - the PRECISE way Prohibition did for organized crime. Treat it like a HEALTH problem and not a crime problem, tax it, and things will be 100% better in this country, right after we ship dolts like you to Argentina. |

just for the record, i believe this guy was busted because he had a fall out with his nephew, which in return turned in his uncle resulting in this bust!!!!
Simpson county, KY sheriff told me this, which is on the kentucky/tenessee border. |

A five year investigation which resulted with the arrest of a dude growing an herb.
This guys could've had a meth operation that was insane and made 100 times the money he made from weed. Instead he grew something that didn't use poisonous chemicals and is natural. The fucking war on drugs should exclude marijuana. The only thing more ridiculous than it is the war on porn. The govt can't find terrorists so they bust cheech and chong and a guy spanking his monkey. Assholes! |

I lived in a house in Apache Junction, Arizona that was actually very similar to the one shown here but on a MUCH smaller scale. The grow room was only 20 X 15 and had originally been a bomb shelter back in the Cold War days. Some folks bought the place and lit the basement up with grow lamps, running water and sewage. They ran quite a successful operation but the DEA eventually caught on.
I really wanted to keep that house and use the "grow room" as an arms room. All I needed to do was reframe the entrance with a vault door and concrete up the roof of the basement. Sadly, the maintanence and upkeep on the house would have killed me. It needed to be hooked from septic to city sewer ( 6 grand ) and it REALLY needed a new roof and AC....( 12 grand or more ) and it really could have used new wiring and plumbing, too.......so I got rid of it........ damn shame....... I'll tell ya, I would LOVE to buy this place at auction.....talk about the bomb shelter/bug out room/ hydroponic gardening/almost self sustaning house from hell!!!!! SWEET!!!! I could be like Peter Griffin in the episode of Family Guy where he seceded from the Union and created the country of Petoria!!!! |

+1 and you didn't mention that as soon as you make something illegal, the potency and thus the danger goes up Alchohol (during prohibition), pot, LSD all fit the profile (thats just the ones I remember off hand). The "War on Drugs" continues because there is an economy built on it. People who use drugs will use drugs regardless of the substance of choice's legality. It is a health issue. |

Only problem is, now 99% of the security is gone as it is probably well known to everyone in the area. Wouldn't take much to pry that "rock" open and drop a smoke grenade in, and all the vermin come running into the waiting arms of your enemy, whoever that may be.....you vermin you... |

When the PoPo makes busts like this, it's usually because someone that's pissed-off rats the grower out. |
|

Years ago, I was shown the inside of a similar underground grow facility. It was heat and humidity controlled, automatically watered, and very well hidden. Everything was powered buy solar cells and propane, but they were 1/4 mile away from the actual site.

Awesome blast door.Though IMO all the money spent for 5 years of overtime,scouting this shit out could have been better spent investigating child molesters,murderes etc...
Why marijuana is illegal,yet cigarettes and alcohol IS legal, escapes me.Yes I know marijuana is not good for you,but it is far less harmful and less addictive than alcohol and tobacco. |
|
It was originally outlawed for two major reasons. In the southwestern states it was outlawed because "All Mexicans are crazy and marijuana is what makes them crazy." In the northeastern states it was outlawed because of the fear that heroin addiction would lead to the use of marijuana -- exactly the opposite of the modern "gateway" myth. It remains illegal because once prohibition was instituted, it became big business. |
|
|
I'm not saying you're wrong, but that makes no sense. If you're trying to stop the progression of gateway drugs, you ban the first drug on the chain, not the last one. Presumably the last one would already be banned. That's like saying we're afraid that people who eat Cheerios might move on to eating Corn Flakes, and we don't want that, so we're going to ban Corn Flakes. Presumably if Corn Flakes are perceived as being worse than Cheerios, then Corn Flakes would already be banned, and now we're going to ban Cheerios to stop the perceived progression towards Corn Flakes. |

I agree that it makes no sense. If you read the entire history of the marijuana laws you will find it hard to find any time that anyone actually made sense. Here is a good, fairly short, entertaining history of how the marijuana laws came to be -- done by the professor who did the original research for Nixon's US National Commission on Marihuana and Drug Abuse Short history of the marijuana laws ETA: It also describes how the "gateway" myth first arose in 1951. In short, it was made up by a government official trying to justify his budget. |

That would be close to my dream SHTF bug in facility. When I dream about the lottery, I dream of a place like that.
Bomber |
|
I bet that that place was designed and built from the beginning as a purpose built growing facility. There's too much floor space for it to have been a simple fallout shelter. Also, it seems to be all floor space with little thought to amenities like bathrooms, bedrooms, food storage, food preparation, etc.; no obvious evidence of ever having been subdivided.
One wonders how many more of these places there are out there. |
|
Enough that marijuana is consistently listed among our top cash crops. |
|
|
you too? |
|
|
Yeah, sounds great until you realize you spent a whole lot of money to live in a cave. If we both win the lottery you can send me e-mails from your cave. I will be in Tahiti, or somewhere else really, really nice. |

WOW, I have to say that's a pretty impressive setup.
Escape hatch and everything! WOW |
|
Who cares about the dope? That would make an awesome underground range! Imagine having a setup like that in your basement, with a proper bullet deflector/trap, of course.
I like the escape hatch, too. Reminds me of Hogan's Heroes. |
|
To all you stupid shits complaining about a "dupe"..
Do you get off on looking like jackass's and making stupid comments in a thread? It always amazes me that 5 people will call DUPE!! in the same thread, some people have better things to do than sit on here all day. I can't believe they let you people have guns.. goto a nintendo website. |
|
As long as you don't mind explaining a lead pollution problem if you ever try to sell it.
Maybe neat if you are being attacked by Al Qaeda and they blew open the front door. If the idea was to escape from cops, it seems to me to be pretty useless as long as your name is on the title of the property. They may run, but they won't be free for long. |

That might make for a great commercial mushroom growing operation.
|
|
Cool House!!!!
<wonders if it will be sold at some Govt. auction for pennies on the dollar> |
|
It might have been their shipping entrance. |

|
Edit. don't want to get banned........don't insult me Swingset, I did not attack you, you pot head fairy! |

Well as far as the war on drugs goes..... Here in Oregon you can get a "medical" MJ card that will allow you to grow and posess your own pot for personal use. I have heard that it is pritty easy to get a card if that is what you are into. I belive It lets you grow up to nine plants.
I am personally not into this crap or any other drugs for that matter... And as far as I can tell all the burn out pot heads just went and found a legal way to get pot. Doesnt seem to me that it has somehow destroyed this state. Meth on the other hand is rediculus here.... and IMO the reason is Drug companys that refuse to stop the sale of Sudafed (or the generic) because of the amount of money to be made. there are products out that do the same thing that cannot be made into meth. There are very few companys in the world that make ephedrine... it is a major undertaking. eliminate ephedrine and you eliminate meth. |
