In the Dagys' case, however, it was trash day.

What brilliant detectives.

Coming soon: search warrents for googling certain words.

They also noticed the family had put its trash out that morning, something police say drug growers often do to hide the evidence.

Oh my gosh - my parents are drug growers! They put the trash out every Friday morning. Wait - everyone in their neighborhood is growing drugs.

Oh, man! I put the trash out on Wednesday morning!! I'm a drug grower too! Holy cow! Everyone in my neighborhood is growing them as well!

Tracking down marijuana growers by reviewing electricity bills, they say, is a common practice.

It's also unconstitutional. That police chief needs to do some time in the slammer.

What a bunch of maroons....

Hmm. Must not be any murders, rapes, assaults, muggings, violence, car thefts, car accidents, speeding, other property crimes, truancy, penny pitching, betting, spittings on the sidewalk, littering in Carlsbad.

Making the Boulder, Colorado detectives look like Einstein's bump.

I believe a lawsuit against the utility company is in order. I have a 4500 square foot home and my energy bill is double hers in the winter months and 300 bucks during the rest of the year. I have a separate meter for my garage and barn that run 250 bucks a month also, should I be worried too?

Obviously, we cannot judge the acts of agents of the State as if they were just ordinary persons.

All this talk of 'injustice' is misplaced - justice is not a factor, necessarily, in carrying out Government policy.

No one was shot and killed, no houses destroyed - go back to your homes, and be grateful that the Authorities are keeping a watchful eye on threats to Society.

Always, there will be small and insignificant mistakes - even agents of the State are only human, after all.
