A helicopter circled my house today five or six times and once was just hovering over it. We were just looking at each other. I have about fifty tomato plants in my backyard. He should have been able to see the tomatoes on the plants. So, a solid 15 minutes of this he takes off. So am I going to get a 4:00 AM no-knock door kicking?
Be Ready.

I dunno...but I’d get up at 3...
Using round red xmas decorations has been used successfully in the past, just buff the shine off..
Way back when the Alaska State Troopers gathered up all their trooper stuff. trucks, cars, a chopper, the whole works. They were going to make a big pot bust. Brought along the media and all. The guy with the potato farm wondered what the brouhaha was all about. Face meet egg! It made the Fairbanks paper and all. Still known to old timers as “The Great Potato Bust.” Someone left a potato plant and a pot plant on the desk at their office so they could learn the difference.
I know there is a lot of humor flying around here.
But I personally know this kid who was assassinated.
Came from a good family. His woman had three? pot plants in their house.

Makes me think of Henry Hill toward the end of Goodfellas.
“They” are never after what you think they are after. It is probably those Poppy plants you have around the house they are really after.
One of my favorite hymns. It was my grandfather’s favorite.
So... NOT Matanuska Thunderf—k.
Tax revenue loss if they think you are growing weed. Weed is legal now in many states just so the govt can tax the production and sale.
Never ever get between the govt and their tax money.
Interesting movie: “Percy vs Goliath”. True story about a poor farmer whose crops were so healthy that it was suspicious. Big Monsanto went after him and made his life a living hell. Brian Dennehy.
Did you get the tail numbers or livery that someone could look up for you? Have you annoyed a neighbor or girlfriend lately? Have you heard of the thousands of government surveillance aircraft all over the country in the past months? Do you have a jacked up F350 Dually 4 by 4 in your driveway that some government goon might have a hankering for?
Try to be chill whatever you do.
Just remember that throwing a tomato at a fed is downright funny! The stains!
I used to have several Deuce and a half trucks. The Guard used to send helicopters out to look at them. This was back when you could buy a surplus deuce and a half for $1000.
Go to the pound and get the meanest dog they've got.
If they shoot it when they kick in your door, they may leave you alone.
You never know. Stranger things have happened. I would like to tell you not to worry. But the Police have killed people for less.
“No, I bought them from Totally Tomatoes not Tomatoes and Cannabis Mixed Grab Bag.”
First hash brownies, now MaryJane Ketchup.
I’d be more worried about the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. Just remember to start humming Puberty Love or better yet have it ready to play on your phone.
Test case for the courts? Soon it will be illegal to grow your own food in the US.
That day will be here sooner than you think.
