I get that the officer may have been a bit jumpy, or at least learned to take such reports with a grain of salt, but I'm more interested in the insurance policy. Given that they aren't removing anything, does Nationwide now cancel their policy? Does Nationwide bear any legal liability? Article says the agent intentionally obscured the photo.

can't expect cops to be an expert in every subject. View Quote The cops bear the brunt of the blame, if not the responsibility, but it is the accumulated legislatures ultimate fault for the plodding progressive restriction of liberties that is only getting worse. From overzealous warrant service ending in innocent deaths to safety checkpoints generating revenue...the very demand for law enforcement cannot persist without constant flow of new laws. |

This...so stop giving them so many laws to "enforce". I don't even blame cops, this is all about excessive legislation as a whole. Feel good common sense bullshit for the last 100 years has made this kind of overauthority more likely.

Do you think it's a lack of intelligence or just pure belligerence that keeps law enforcement from thinking, "oh it's a family or an old couple" maybe I should stop by collect some samples, take some pictures and talk to them? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Last year the GBI and DEA raided a house in Cartersville GA based on a tip from a neighbor that the family was growing marijuana, it was okra. I go into dope grower houses several times a week, it is so obvious from the odor it's not even funny. However, it's not my job to inquire on the legality of their grow, not is it my job to call the police. I have told plenty of them not to smoke it when I am inside working as we get piss tested quite regularly and I don't need to pop hot. All have been quite willing to comply with my request. |

Since when is it the insurance agent's job to call the popo on his clients in the first place? I hope he loses his business and ends up a short-order cook at Waffle House. View Quote |

I once had a client with a kitchen table stacked with marijuana.
It wasn’t my business, so I didn’t report that or his modified faucets that exceeded the GPM limits set by the government. |

If you read the article it was their idiot insurance guy who mistook the plants and got the cops all hot and bothered. Then the cops went full retard. There were a few local news stories on it yesterday since the lawsuit was filed. The insurance guy was inspecting damage to the home from some other event and of course this guy called the cops to report this couple's massive weed operation. The insurance company also threatened to drop coverage of the couple due to their "weed" operation. Then the cops ransack the place and damage stuff looking for "weed."

Cops need to bring along high school kids for dope identification and quality assessment.
“That’s not weed, dude..” “That’s some primo ‘ponic, dawg... I’d smoke that.” “That’s Mexican brick-pack, man, that shit’s for kids or something.” |
