I agree those are cannabis plants for sure.

 

[Crusader Rabbit]

No, those are Spanish Tomato Plants. LMFAO!

I once got pulled over for speeding on the open highway with two big tomato plants on the floor in front of the passenger seat. When that highway patrolman looked inside my car he did the best double-take I've ever seen. Straight out of a Warner Brothers cartoon.

FEMA giving away reefer plants to hurricane Sandy victims?

Police Reject Candidate for Being Too Intelligent
Posted on February 29, 2008 by fortruthandfreedom

This is not the first time I’ve seen a story like this, it is apparently typical hiring policy for police in many areas. Let’s face it, they want a dumbed-down police force that’s just smart enough to follow orders. We just can’t have our police thinking too much or questioning procedure!

This story says that the average I.Q. for a cop is 104, if that is accurate it means there are thousands of police with I.Q.’s in the 80-100 range. Is it any surprise then that incidents of police brutality and abuses upon citizens (as well as the Constitution) are now so frequent?

From Ananova:

A US man has been rejected in his bid to become a police officer for scoring too high on an intelligence test.

Robert Jordan, a 49-year-old college graduate, took an exam to join the New London police, in Connecticut, in 1996 and scored 33 points, the equivalent of an IQ of 125.

But New London police interviewed only candidates who scored 20 to 27, on the theory that those who scored too high could get bored with police work and leave soon after undergoing costly training.

Mr Jordan launched a federal lawsuit against the city, but lost.

The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York upheld a lower court’s decision that the city did not discriminate against Mr Jordan because the same standards were applied to everyone who took the test.

He said: “This kind of puts an official face on discrimination in America against people of a certain class. I maintain you have no more control over your basic intelligence than your eye color or your gender or anything else.”

He said he does not plan to take any further legal action and has worked as a prison guard since he took the test.

The average score nationally for police officers is 21 to 22, the equivalent of an IQ of 104, or just a little above average.

I've never heard of a spanish tomato but those damn sure look like weed to me!!

 

[DevilWeedSeeds]

It's amazing how many people think there is some magical way cannabis is "made" and have no idea you can plant it in the garden next to tomatoes.

Of course 20% of Americans still think the sun revolves around the earth.

Luckily those plants were Spanish tomatoes.

 

[Hammerhead]

not unless Spanish Tomato=cannabis plant lol

 

[Green lung]

looks like an indica with ph problems

 

[Infinitesimal]

lucky for this person... that these cops are f'n retarded, I guess they expect that marijuana plants grow with buds already attached... NY's Finest

 

[FirstTracks]

guess that's one way to find out your 'grow' was busted...

 

[Ziggaro]

Damn even the comments on the article has people talking about how stupid cops are for thinking these were MJ plants. If I'm not some kind of alien I don't know what the fuck I just can't believe we're the same species.
