Oops! Cops raid Georgia man’s home after mistaking okra for weed

A Georgia man was awoken Wednesday morning to find a police helicopter
hovering overhead and sheriff’s deputies at the door to search his
property for drugs.

“They were strapped to the gills,” said Dwayne Perry, describing the
heavily armed officers.

Agents from the Governor’s Task Force for drug suppression flying
overhead spotted what they believed to be marijuana growing in the yard
of Perry’s home in Cartersville, reported WSB-TV.

But the plants were, in fact, okra.

“We’ve not been able to identify it as of yet, but it did have quite a
number of characteristics that were similar to a cannabis plant,” Capt.
Kermit Stokes, of the Georgia State Patrol, told the TV station.

Perry said the mistake shouldn’t have been made, because okra has five
leaves — not seven, as cannabis does.

“Here I am, at home and retired and, you know, I do the right thing,”
Perry said. “Then they come to my house strapped with weapons for no
reason. It ain’t right.”

Law enforcement officers apologized to Perry after examining the plants,
saying they were only trying to do their jobs, but the homeowner said
the mistake could potentially have gotten him killed or injured.

“The more I thought about it, what could have happened?” Perry said.
“Anything could have happened.”

Perry also fears his reputation was harmed, saying that neighbors have
been asking him about all the patrol cars parked outside his home.

We have medical pot on the ballot this year and Charlie Crist (the H
is silent) has a "hint hint, wink wink" rumor going out that he would
use the most liberal interpretation of that law if he is elected but
he has not actually said a single word about it.
Ambulance chaser and TV lawyer, John Morgan is financing both
amendment 2 and Crist.

The problem is Crist is such a lying weasel, I certainly can't trust
him. Scott is a weasel too so I am not sure if I will vote for either
one.

I am sure Morgan just wants "his" man in the state house and that is
scary enough. As for the medical pot, I am not sure what Morgan's
connection is but I would want to follow the money. He probably has a
link to the potential producers or distributors.

Would you want a stoned guy driving your truck?
Could the cops still cite him for DUI? (that is yes)
This is far from a settled issue. It will still be up to employers
whether failing a **** quiz is grounds for termination.
I am not sure I would want a stoned employee working for me and that
would include pot, heroin or (legal) prescription pills.
If they have a little lapse and get hurt or hurt someone else, you are
still liable.

I bet that won't be a big seller. When I was walking around in
Colorado, before the general legalization, the dispensaries still
bragged about how powerful their "medicines" were.

Crested Butte was an interesting place. They had 5 streets and 6
dispensaries ... and nobody in a restaurant ever got an order right.

It was the biggest concentration of "sick" people I ever saw. ;-)


Do not know what the drivers illness wis. As to Colorado, they figured big
tax revenues. The legal pot has so many taxes and fees, that it is about
2X the price of pot on the treet. $250 vs. $125 or that range.

Many companies drug test the young kids before hiring them, don't care
if you have a med card, you smoke pot, you don't work there... period. I
assume it's more of an insurance consideration than anything else. Last
thing an employer wants is the insurance company to find out the worker
who just filed a claim smokes pot, legally, or not...

A guy I know in Boulder seems to think it may be twice as good as the
regular ragweed on the street.

Evidently a little dab will do ya and a joint would put you in a coma.

It has been so long for me, just watching someone smoke might give me
a buzz. Back in the old $10 a bag days I am not sure there was hardly
any THC in the leaves, sticks and seeds we sorted through. I know I
never saw one of those fuzzy buds you see on TV now.



I "came of age" in the 60's. You either became a hippy or remained a
carry over from the greaser days of the 50's. I guess I was the latter.
Never grew my hair long or got into the psychedelic thing. Stayed
clear of drugs when I started college and then in the military. I was
more of a professional beer drinker when I was younger. Funny though, I
noticed over the years that the old farts (60 or over) didn't drink beer
often. Then, as I approached 60 I began to understand why. I still
love the taste of a cold Sam Adams but it no longer likes me. Get gassy
and bloated feeling and feel like crap, so I basically gave it up. The
light beers like Coors Lite taste like ****, so I rarely drink any.
I'll have one or two every 3 months or so and I usually regret it
afterwards. Never developed a taste for the "hard stuff".

I never got into the drug scene. I tried pot once or twice in high
school but I really didn't like the feeling it gave me. During my
working career some of the defense contracts we had required security
clearances and drug testing so it wasn't worth the risk of experimenting.

Once, after some oral surgery, I took an Oxycontin that the dentist
prescribed. I think I had a plastic bottle containing ten of them.
I took one and did not like the feeling it produced. Flushed the rest
down the toilet the next morning.

The only pills I take are aspirin and even those I don't take often.
Probably two every two months if I have a headache.

I had plenty of opportunities at the guitar shop, that's for sure.
Had a guy come in one day. I knew him pretty well. He wanted to
purchase a particular guitar but was about $150 short of the asking
price. He pulled a big bag of pot out of his pocket and asked if I'd
accept it towards the guitar. Cracked me up. Told him, "No thanks, I
am allergic to the ****".

Talk about "tin hat" lol.. if there is, a true CBD form that doesn't get
you high, I guarantee it's a one off product like the one going through
the courts now for a 7 year old kid... Medical MJ is a joke, maybe 1% of
users really "need" THC or CBD... The rest just want to get stoned..

A guy I know in Boulder seems to think it may be twice as good as the
regular ragweed on the street.

Evidently a little dab will do ya and a joint would put you in a coma.

It has been so long for me, just watching someone smoke might give me
a buzz. Back in the old $10 a bag days I am not sure there was hardly
any THC in the leaves, sticks and seeds we sorted through. I know I
never saw one of those fuzzy buds you see on TV now.


Those fuzzy buds are on the street now for between 4-500 an ounce... I
know a "legal" card holder in CT, a 55 Year old retired doctor with MS,
and she is paying between 550-800 an ounce for "the fuzzy stuff"... I
set her up with a freind of a friend who gets it to her for about 300,
that has changed her life... Like I said though, she is the only Med MJ
user I know that is for real, nobody else in her family smokes and she
uses it exclusively for a muscle relaxer...

Would you want a stoned guy driving your truck?

This is far from a settled issue. It will still be up to employers
whether failing a **** quiz is grounds for termination.
I am not sure I would want a stoned employee working for me and that
would include pot, heroin or (legal) prescription pills.
If they have a little lapse and get hurt or hurt someone else, you are
still liable.

Speed might be OK tho ;-)

He did not use it at work they said.



At least some forms of medical pot doesn't get you high.


Talk about "tin hat" lol.. if there is, a true CBD form that doesn't get
you high, I guarantee it's a one off product like the one going through
the courts now for a 7 year old kid... Medical MJ is a joke, maybe 1% of
users really "need" THC or CBD... The rest just want to get stoned..



So let them. I have nothing against casual pot smokers. Better than
drunks.

BTW ... what does a "tin hat" have to do with my comment? All I said is
that some forms of medicinal pot does not get you high. There have been
several reports on it's success.

Many companies drug test the young kids before hiring them, don't care
if you have a med card, you smoke pot, you don't work there... period. I
assume it's more of an insurance consideration than anything else. Last
thing an employer wants is the insurance company to find out the worker
who just filed a claim smokes pot, legally, or not...


That is true. Insurance is higher for a company that doesn't have a
drug testing program.


I know for a fact.. I have a friend in charge of one of the biggest
MotorCycle retail parts chains in the Country, and that's what he told
me... The test and don't care if you "don't smoke now" a hair test goes
back at least 6 mos, and if you fail, even a little, no hire for you. Of
course the other half of that equation is your credit report.. which he
indicated carried more weight, however "more weight" doesn't mean much
when the drug policy is zero tolerance... You can be a drunk though.... :)

I bet that won't be a big seller. When I was walking around in
Colorado, before the general legalization, the dispensaries still
bragged about how powerful their "medicines" were.

Crested Butte was an interesting place. They had 5 streets and 6
dispensaries ... and nobody in a restaurant ever got an order right.

It was the biggest concentration of "sick" people I ever saw. ;-)

I "came of age" in the 60's. You either became a hippy or remained a
carry over from the greaser days of the 50's. I guess I was the latter.
Never grew my hair long or got into the psychedelic thing. Stayed
clear of drugs when I started college and then in the military. I was
more of a professional beer drinker when I was younger. Funny though, I
noticed over the years that the old farts (60 or over) didn't drink beer
often. Then, as I approached 60 I began to understand why. I still
love the taste of a cold Sam Adams but it no longer likes me. Get gassy
and bloated feeling and feel like crap, so I basically gave it up. The
light beers like Coors Lite taste like ****, so I rarely drink any.
I'll have one or two every 3 months or so and I usually regret it
afterwards. Never developed a taste for the "hard stuff".

I never got into the drug scene. I tried pot once or twice in high
school but I really didn't like the feeling it gave me. During my
working career some of the defense contracts we had required security
clearances and drug testing so it wasn't worth the risk of experimenting.

Once, after some oral surgery, I took an Oxycontin that the dentist
prescribed. I think I had a plastic bottle containing ten of them.
I took one and did not like the feeling it produced. Flushed the rest
down the toilet the next morning.

The only pills I take are aspirin and even those I don't take often.
Probably two every two months if I have a headache.

I had plenty of opportunities at the guitar shop, that's for sure.
Had a guy come in one day. I knew him pretty well. He wanted to
purchase a particular guitar but was about $150 short of the asking
price. He pulled a big bag of pot out of his pocket and asked if I'd
accept it towards the guitar. Cracked me up. Told him, "No thanks, I
am allergic to the ****".



I managed to "miss" the 60s in that regard. Between IBM and the USCGR
I had short hair and an aversion to hippies. It was about the time
they assassinated Richard Nixon that I tuned in, grew a beard, got a
harley and sparked up. I just never dropped out.
It took about 7 or 8 years to get over the whole "wild man" thing.
Once I got to Florida and had a daughter I was back to being a citizen
... except for the beard.


Pot just did not affect me much. The rest of the drugs were too scary. I
graduated with my Bachelors from San Francisco State and worked down the
street from the Haight. We used to have the speed freaks want to come in
and watch the blinking computers. Days of big windows showing off the
computer system. We were on Geary, and direct path from the Haight to
Union Square. Had lots of friends who loved pot, so was not adverse to
being around users.

Look at the article I posted about the local production plant being built.
It describes growing pot for medical use.

That is not specifically drug culture. They mean hydroponic and people
grow tomatoes that way too. It is such an efficient way to grow things
that it was touted is how interplanetary astronauts would feed
themselves.


Thanks. You've just greatly furthered my knowledge of drugs.

In general "hydro" would refer to hydroponically grown... in this case
however, "hydro" is the street name given the quickly grown production
weed grown in western Canada specifically to be sold in the US market.
It's not necessarily hydroponic, certainly not organic which is what
they are trying to infer. Canadian "Hydro" is more "HYPEo", it's really
just a street name. It would/can not compete with the local growers who
supply the legal shops out west and would not be considered by any
serious medical user...

Now, you know that's a lie. Why are you perpetuating it? Referring to
your tag line.

I'm really not interested in the government owned dope plant in Nova
Scotia, nor do I follow Donnie's lame links about what he finds
fascinating about local happenings.

AND, Whenever I see you making up 4th grade lies about someone, I am
tempted to throw out a factoid about you. How are you enjoying them so far?

My godson manages a huge hydroponic growing operation. Those living heads
of lettuce? He is one of the biggest growers. Cal Poly graduate.

You think tomatoes are drugs?


As much as marijuana.
Both are rich in natural organic compounds and neither should have any
significant amount of man made chemicals.
YMMV in both. ;-)


Well, tomatoes are of the Night Shade family. Leaves are way toxic.
