Anyone have any info on this BS? "Heavy hit: cannabis syndrome alert * March 23, 2009 - 5:08PM There is mounting evidence to support the existence of a syndrome afflicting heavy cannabis users, after the world's first cases were found in South Australia. The condition "cannabinoid hyperemesis" was first identified in a group of about 20 heavy drug users in the Adelaide hills in 2004, and a new case has emerged this time in the US. The syndrome is characterised by nausea, stomach pain and bouts of vomiting - ill effects which, oddly, sufferers say they get some relief from by having a hot shower or bath. The new case, involving a 22-year-old man in Omaha, i…

An alleged drug farm which used an elaborate irrigation system to grow cannabis has been raided by NSW police. More than 1500 marijuana plants — with an estimated street value of $1.5 million — were seized from the property in Mudgee in the state's central west. Four men were arrested at the scene and are being questioned. The cannabis plants were ripped from the ground and will be destroyed in a large burn-off, police say. I BET NO ONE CALLS IN SICK WHEN THEY DO THE BURN-OFF!!!! WANKERS!!!

FFS, this is getting more and more like Nazi Germany everyday. What are 'computer crimes'? Does growing a single weed plant equate to 'manufacturing drugs'?

The warrants will be issued through the Supreme Court and limited to investigations of suspected serious offences punishable by at least seven years jail.

http://www.police.nsw.gov.au/news/latest_r...CZhbGw9MQ%3D%3D Did anyone else see this on the News last night? Australia started as a penal colony - although without the history books I'd have guessed as a mental asylum - and now we've come full circle. Just imagine how good it will be when a police officer can arrest you if you refuse to give your fingerprints! I'm feeling safer already!

The new legislation, an Australian first, will be aimed at combating the sale of equipment for cultivating hydroponic cannabis. Police Minister Michael Wright said the move would make it easier for police to track who was buying the equipment. "If you are using the equipment to grow tomatoes then you have nothing to fear but if it is for growing cannabis then you can expect a visit fr…
