    Shouldn’t they be focusing their manpower on more important things?

    • will says:

      important things require paperwork and less media attention..BPS always has to fill a quota!! which is why they’d rather bust a ganja smoker than deal with robbery, murder, rape etc…its just too easy

      • SS says:

        LOL! hate to say it but that is so true! still the murderers of so many are running around free as a bird. go figure.

    • soho says:

      More important to who? I’ts against the law. If someone found it and reported it they must react. If they didn’t you would be the first to complain. If you don’t think it’s important I’m guessing you have been lucky enough not to have a family member affected by drug use. I ha’ve and it all began with a little “harmless” weed. Or let me guess, you are a dope smoker….or “recreational user” . These is a reason why they call it dope. I’ve never met a dope smoker that didn’t THINK they were normal and intelligent but that in reality was stupid. There is a reason why most people GROW UP AND QUIT. Some don’t see the side affects and can’t quit and eventually have a mind of mush. Three of my five best friends in school were and are chronic weed smokers and are now useless to everyone including their employers and family. Two family members…same situation.

      • will says:

        so what about the persons like me who work all day and enjoy a smoke at the end of the night before bed? oh and as for being useless to employers explain how I managed two promotions in under 6months and have become a great asset to the company?

        as for dope that destroys people…try looking at alcohol, how many persons in your family are homeless because of beer????

        and as for your friends and family members they are just lazy, down right lazy..i have a friend who is the same, cept he doesnt smoke weed because he’s to lazy to work to afford it.

        • SHOWANAX says:

          Image what you could have done if you weren’t a dope smoker – three or four promtions maybe, instead of two? Weed , like alcohol or coke does not erode your brain cells instantly. The effects are slow and can take place gradually over time. Sad part is before you start to realize it is frying your brain cells it will be to late. I know alcoholics and coke addicts that have recieved promotions too? Eventually it catches up to them, changes them and poof promotions lead to demotions. Keep it up @will and you will see.

          You are absolutely right about alcohol and that is exactly what most potheads say!? The answer should be BAN both because they have negative impacts on society not accept another?

          There is a reason why most people eventually grow up and give up weed smoking, and acohol and don’t look back at it. Think about it, while you still have enough brain cells left.

          • will says:

            yeah but i dont smoke before work, so not dependent on it..and the promotions are literally wihtin two months of each other..and can’t go any higher as i’m now Head…you dick

            as for weed killing brain cells thats a total myth, the government eventually released that study and realised that the research they funded used monkeys which were pumped full of only smoke, the equivalent to 20 joints in one sitting, so yah, of course lack of oxygen kills brain cells. What of the new research that shows parts of cannabis can inhibit brain cell growth..or are you to naive and brainwashed to think weed is that evil drug that makes people kill others, or step in white peoples shadows or look twice at a white woman!!!

      • More with less says:

        Lazy is lazy dude. Its not the weed thats the cause even though highly contributing to the larger problem inside those friends. Its called no passion for accomplishment and self worth. Did these friends go to college, did they even graduate high school? And how is it that everyone is fine with people having a glass of wine. In fact, how is it possible for one to enjoy a glass of wine and not be a lazy drug addicted loser? Being that alcohol IS physically addictive and all. Marijuana is NOT physically addictive. This makes almost every argument a hypocritical illogical mess when one actaully looks athe whole picture.

      • airmo says:

        How can plants growing from the ground be against the law??. bet your relatives got hooked on something really dopey but they certainly were not harmed by an herb, it may have started with a little weed (you sure it wasn’t cigarettes first?)but they ended up with a chemical imbalance notinduced by aplant.. however my relative was rushed to hospital foreating peanuts!!!! lets make that illegal!!reporting plants growing is a collassal waste of police manpower!!How many people have been fined for littering lately, not going 35km, after all there is a one thousand dollar fine for littering!!and who actually goes the speed limit??get real.. people make choices that are not always good because they cannot hanle it.. I can’t handle shellfish.. should it be banned????no!!!! I just have to avoid it..

  2. shotta says:

    good for the nerves let de ting grow

  3. will says:

    and so it begins again!
    Just leave de damn plant alone, fack! why not concentrate your efforts on removing Mexican Peppers and bloody casaurinas???

    • Reverend Pastor says:

      You are so right. Leee de ganja, an get rid a de mexican pepper an de casuarinas!!

  4. Come Correct says:

    Good to see another crop of this deadly plant has been seized before this “plant-like material” made it to our streets tearing apart thousands of families island wide. Do these guys only think about themselves when planting these things? Any small featus or leprechaun innocently playing around these deadly plants could easily trip over a pot and skin a knee, or worse, lose an eye to one of those razor sharp “plant-like” leaves. God forbid a child were to ingest one of these lethal plants, could you imagine the the repercussions later in life, if for just 45mins, that child didn’t give a f@ck about the toy you refused to buy them at the store. Without the irradication of these deadly “plant-like” plants, that produce more oxygen than normal trees, all life as we know it is doomed. WELL DONE BPS!

    • Jamudian says:

      You sound like a fool come correct….educated yourself…then try again…it may come out correct after.

      Your adjectives for this plant are totally of base…

      Gahnja a the healing of the nation…If it were legal people would use it the way it was ment to be used instead of smoking it…people tend to smoke it cause its is illegal and they can only get small amounts for high prices. Anything that you smoke is not good for the lungs…

      With that said…your obviously brain washed by this legal rhetoric/propoganda about this plant…THAT GOD MADE!!!

      Such a SHEEPLE you are!!

      Mentality like that makes it easy for the powers that be to gas fools like you under the pretext of a promise…

      • good heavens , grow up says:

        Your defensiveness and sensitivity is blinding your ability to recognise sarcasm when you see it .

        Guess you just gave yourself away in terms of your substance of choice. lol

        • Jamudian says:

          Soo??? Choice is the key word.

          Sarcasm…it is difficult to recognise a whole paragraph of sarcasm…especially ending with “WELL DONE BPS”.????

          one or two sentences…ok. but all that…??

          • Come Correct says:

            Lol it was ALL sarcasm, especially the “WELL DONE BPS”. I have no problem giving them credit where its due but killing a bunch of natural plants? I could do that by myself on a nature walk.

        God made Poison Ivy as well….why arent you smoking or eating that? No brain washing here. Im just looking through eyes hat are not RED and I can see very clearly.

        Ganja , the heling of the Nation you say LOL. If that were true Jamaica, Mexico and Colombia would be healed and free of all problems. Wow, thats a lot of dead brain cells in that head. The problem with people that smoke to much weed and have brain damage is that they start to believe that everyone else is messed up, brainwashed, and not able to think clearly.

        Stop for a year and take a look back at your life and I think you might find that you will see improvements even after you deal with all the problems you are running away from when you mash up de herb superb.

        • Sara says:

          This post just shows how ignorant you are on the subject. Poison ivy CAN KILL YOU. Marijuana CAN NOT KILL YOU. Do you see the difference oh smart one? As a matter of fact, go eat some weed, then go eat some poison ivy and come back and tell us all just how different the two are. Oh and another thing is poison ivy illegal? NO as it grows naturally and most likely serves some kind of purpose on this earth. It’s none of anyone’s business if a person wants to drink alcohol, smoke cigs, or smoke/drink/eat/vaporize weed. And another things those of you talking about weed killing brain cells are making yourself look REAL stupid because it is now well known that that is not true. In fact, it is ALCOHOL that kills brain cells. DO some research people, its called Google.

      You do know that these are marijuana plants and not heroin right??

    PLANTS!!!!!!!!!

  6. fishmon says:

    Ah look at that, BPS wasting more money, time, and energy on “the wrong law”. Bet you they aren’t any closer to finding out who commited the murder at the barbershop, misguided police service, but hey I guess the gov need to draw attention to something else. SMH

  7. terry says:

    Where there is weed there is greed.

  8. Amazed says:

    Half the island is whacked out on this garbage , then again I guess they need something to dull the pain the way the island is going! A doobie and a few marley tunes is all some folks need oh yeah and a bag of cheezits!

  9. Think! says:

    you lot have to think outside of what you see written in the paper! I work outside of bermuda in a gang task force. What the Bermuda Police Service is doing is helping to get to the root of these gang related murders and crimes that are happening in your beautiful Island! For many years of experience all of this gang foolishness starts out with drugs! You all can be against the BPS all you want and say they need to focus on the Murders! But they can’t do that because there are never “no witnesses!” So they have to start from doing raids, just like what they did today to work their way to the top! So stop being negative and find a way to help your fellow community!!

    And further more, I do not think half of you read or listen to these articles all you see is the headline and start typing. You should be congratulating them! The raid was close to a SCHOOL! You do not want illegal substances being grown next to your children’s school! It puts them in a dangerous atmosphere!

    • Split Milk says:

      U don’t even kno y ppl are killing each other…. Not for turf or drugs u kno…. U talk crap u act all big u robbing guys…. Your getting shot…. Your thinking on the level of the alcohol prohibition. Anything that’s majority want that is illegal will cause the few to capitalize on that market. Bermuda is broke and that is the market mate.. But ppl don’t kill over that like they did over alcohol.. The mindset has changed, and that mindset is umma get u b4 u get me if we had issues.. Minor or major… Got it..
      Ok
      Now yes is was close to a school.. I thing the morning glory plant grows by that school and guess what. That plant grows wild here and contains an acid similar to LSD.. I’m pretty sure that’s a bit worse than a little herb.. Get educated and believe half of what c n none of what u here.. Find out what’s real for yourself..
      Marijuana used to be legal… All legal document had to be printed on hemp paper and that wasn’t too long ago.. Just saying..

    • will says:

      taking away from gangs creates problems you fool! thats why the police can NEVER rid the world of drugs. its basic supply and demand…and as an officer i would have expected you to realise that if one gang doesn’t have and the other does, the one’s without will do whatever it takes to become the haves and not have nots!

      prohibition that YOU enforce creates the problems not the drug itself…simple logic

      • More with less says:

        Bermuda is the only country that doesnt follow supply demand principles. It funny and its why idiots are still building condos, its retail is dying, its why Belco raised their rates, its why they think the can win the war on drugs…

    • Jamudian says:

      Next to a school?
      God made plants…children see plants…just like they see anyother vegitation around them…this plant is just a plant…just as a man is just a man.
      The plant is only bad cause you all want it to be bad…such is life.

      Back in the day it was bad to be a certain color cause people wanted it that way…

      The plant aint bad…its doing what its supposed to do…

      People are bad…not plants..

      People have bad ideas…hence why the plant is illeagal.

    Educate yourself fool. So many of you come on here and have done no research and you call the people that have idiots, man’s ego is so large and so often it gets in his way. It’s just too darn bad. And I never bring up racism in my posts. So now not only have you not done your research you are a liar too. Oh well, next

  11. BULL SH***** says:

    You all around here worrying about something that grows from the earth?! When we have more than enough unsolved murders in Bermuda!!!!! just don’t make any type of sense to me and I’m sure others agree… here we are got families here grieving because justice has not yet been served because of a lost one and you all around here searching for weed trees…!! DISGUSTING!!! Bringing in all these rooky cops that dont have a clue, are only here to make maoney, and cant do their jobs…. its sickening! I am not even one that smokes weed but i sure as hell dont have a problem with it….to be honest i think the popo should take a draw then go out looking for these murderers, bet you any money they”ll think straight and find them…. LEAVE the d@mn weed alone!!!! Then you want the community to help them find the trees…. Hell NO!!! Sh!t cant be real… leagalize de weed and gwan so!!!!

  12. Here fishy fishy says:

    Bunch of idiots, should we all stop working and drop everything to try solve the murder of one gangster by another. The gang wars are over territory for selling drugs, its all related. Go BPS, wish it was still BPF.

    All the murders are just because someone stole a bike.

  14. Paradise Reclaimed says:

    I live in a state where it’s legal for medicinal purposes. We’ve not been cut off from the USA, it hasn’t effected our economy negatively, and thousands that may have once been criminalized for its use are now free to enjoy its benefits without its use destroying users’ lives and society’s assets in court/jail. Wakey wakey Bermuda. Once it’s legal, it’s importation, local cultivation, and distribution, can be regulated and controlled, AND TAXED. Stoners aren’t widely known as criminals here, or there.

      Legalize Marijuana for Tax Revenue
      Governments (such as those of the U.S. and Canada) should allow the sale of marijuana for recreational use in order to collect the tax. Pro or con?

      Bermuda has NO NATURAL INDUSTRY…NOTHING…–THERE IS YOUR CASH CROP FOOLS…THE BENEFITS TO TOURISM WILL BE ASTOUNDING!!!

      This is the secret serum to riviving that dead industy…

      • Come Correct says:

        +1 and to think Bermuda grown weed has its own distinct flavor unlike any other in the world. One day the decision makers will wake up, in our lifetime, I doubt it. I had this idea to boycott our marijuana laws by only smoking salvia, a hallucinagenic, which is LEGAL here, yes a LEGAL hallucinagenic, but the last time the care bears chased me on their orange unicorns sh!t got real.

      • will says:

        not sure drug tourism is necessarily a good thing..private member clubs/dispensaries for locals but do we really want a bunch of tourists doing what American tourists do best; everything to excess..happens all the time in Amsterdam, i’ve been 3 times and theres always some dumb peoples who take the strongest herb after drinking and just pass out pissing themselves or throwing up.

    I just have 1 question. What happened to all the “plants” that were seized last year? Just find it quite convenient that no updates or arrests have ever been made. Also, if these latest “plants” have been taken from the same location why wasn’t there a sting in place to catch these idiots so someone could be charged? I’m just saying, obviously the police believe that the public is THAT DUMB not to realize what’s truly going on. SMH

    Well put it this way would you get on a flight where the pilot was stoned ?.. If your answer is yes check yourself into MaWi!

      That’s why its called recreational use not occupational. If you can’t do a simple 9-5 without using you have a problem, especially since addictioin is just your mind, mind-f@cking itself, passages to malibu I believe its called has already figured this out. As for a pilot of a commercial aircraft, they carry the lives of over 100 people most of the time, not something I would want to leave to chance, but a better question would have been, would you get on the plane if the pilot said welcome aboard and his breath stank of liquor? No, then why would you assume marijuana would be used differently. Bottom line, your drunk on the job? Fired. High on the job? Fired. Simple basic rules most of us follow already.

    i highly doubt that town and parkside guys are growing thier medicine in st davids and st georges these meds had nothing to do with murders these plants are premature no buds or pistils pointless raid pointless operation …. i cant wait until god comes back and lets us all know how dumb we are for suffering when he gave us a wonder drug which the legal system continues to destroy …..if every body decided to plant a seed today…we would be good…. come on all my fellow Johnnie Apple seeds …..lets put some tiger stripes in the soil today ……….

    • johnAppleseed says:

      these are a few local indians just trying to save a lil money by growing there own meds with miracle grow and rain water……….i love the police spokespersons choice of words for pot water and soil….( marijuana cultivating accessories) police and the media make me laugh…….. its not like their was baking soda and other cutting agents ……..blahhhhhhpointlesssssssss…

    • Come Correct says:

      I’ve been saying this for ages, save them all, and throw them EVERYWHERE. Every plant potter on front st, every roundabout, and the best part is, the seeds aren’t illegal until it sprouts. They wanna cut down weed, let’s give them weed to cut down…and lots of it.

      • airmo says:

  22. just observing..... says:

    Lol it just makes u stupid and basically can’t think fast or react. Good job BPS. Just don’t let the crooked cops get it and turn it back out on the street so they can make a profit. It needs to be disposed of properly. Keep it off the streets.

    • johnAppleseed says:

      pebble on the rock mentality………..yawn…….

      • johnAppleseed says:

        indica may make you a little lethargic ….which is good for insomnia and sativa will have you buzzing like a bee and f#%king like a G …tho…natural viagra …….free your mind…. @ just observing and stop listening to everything you hear or have been taught ….. either that or go have a few shots of chivas and go for a drive ……….

  23. Mister Nice Guy says:

    Just a thought here … i wonder… if god made the marijuana plant …would they try charge him if he was to visit bermuda AND how much would they charge him as the one who CREATED it…… then i think of this ALCOHOL… man made hmmm not too many being charged for the making and selling of this killer hmmmm something dont add up here…. like i said just a thought

    • Jamudian says:

      The veeds got you thinking Mister Nice Guy. LOL
      Hahahaha..
      Yah bwoy is stoned.

  24. Mister Nice Guy says:

    Just a thought… i wonder if GOD was to visit Bermuda being the one who created marijuana …would the law tell him that something he made is illegal ?? i wonder if they would charge him and send him to westgate …. then i go here…..ALCOHOL which is killing more people AND made by man gets to be fully legal? peeps i neither drink or smoke but i can surely tell u its all about money.

  25. US Observer says:

    People kill themselves everyday…its called heart disease and cancer which are the #1 and #2 causes of death. How are these two things formed? Think about all of the man made (artificial) foods that are manufactured (chemicals) you put in your body and then 20 years later or less you have health issues. Are these companies being arrested for putting people at risk? Just a thought or two…

    Just because what you eat is sold on a shelf doesn’t make it good for you or less likely to kill you…eventually.

    • Fab! says:

      What’s the solution smoke Ur self silly?

      • Come Correct says:

        The solution is freedom of choice. You choose to eat cheeseburgers and I choose to use marijuana.

  26. Fab! says:

    God did not smoke weed while on earth they drank wine at the last supper ,they did not light up a spliff dah!

    • Come Correct says:

      Yet Moses spoke to a burning bush in the middle of the desert…

    • ay bumbaclot mi seh says:

      ya obviously never read bout di burning bush ya rasclot!!!!!!

      ya kno!

    • Geza says:

      I Don’t believe in god, so why should something that isn’t real dictate how I live?

  27. M.P.Mountbatten JP says:

    Now all that needs to be done is to get these coldblooded killers of the streets .

  28. ay bumbaclot mi seh says:

    mi ah tell ya
    dem a profit
    dem na stop it
    dey na care
    money to be made
    dem na wanna share

    ya kno!

  29. More with less says:

    What a pathetic waste of resources.

  30. benefits of gov control says:

    Be realistic. People are never going to stop using this plant. It’s expensive to incarcerate people over associating with this plant. Perhaps in smoke form, smoke itself can harm people, though studies have shown this plant to decrease cancer risk (perhaps best used in a humidifier). Money that some gangs who sell marijuana also use the money to fund other illegal things. Government regulation just makes sense, at the very least for medical purposes. People who dislike gangs and want to dismantle gang economy should seriously consider government legalisation and regulation. Not to mention it would ensure the consumer of not buying a laced product and getting addicted to something harder. For the record, I’ve never smoked weed, but I do appreciate the amount of oxygen this plant produces, it is comforting among the gas fumes.

  31. Fab! says:

    Moses tied his ass to a tree and walked into Jerusalem now that literally!

  32. street wise says:

    These immature plants are worthless on the street, or anywhere else. What a waste of the Police’s time and energy for such a harmless, misunderstood, recreational drug. Criminalised as a result of racism.

    Legalise it…and watch the visitors flock to our shores! Full house! “Recession” gone….

  33. The nitty gritty says:

    Lotta fuss and wasted human energy all round over some plants growing, get yourself a book with the Hubble telescope images of our 13 Billion year old universe and contemplate dat instead.

  34. Unbelievable says:

    Don’t you people realize by now that the police only do things that are gonna get them extra change.
    IE: Warrant/Speeding Tickets give them bonuses
    Drug Busts give them stuff to sell back to the original owner fro a lil pocket change
    Murders give them nada so why waste their time solving something they already no the answer to…..
