You're forgetting the whole more quantity pricebreak deal.. I don't think it goes by 20 dollars a gram. Probably an average of the street market value by pound, I'd guess.

This is what happens in the real life "how high". But Redman and Method Man are way funnier...lol

i was just about to start watchin that haha. but they werent sellin in the movie, these kids probably were

doug 11-22-2008 05:51 PM

How High is such a great movie. stroke, smoke, stroke, smoke!

There's a difference being busted with 16 pounds and being busted with a personal 8th or gram.. it sucks people get screwed over hard for carrying a personal stash.. in this case though.. that's a little extreme.

7,264 x $20= $145,280 so it looks like they were estimating it at $20 a gram and assuming it was all sold by the gram. No way they would see that much money though.

The whole situation is pretty stupid if you ask me. The city is cutting 11 libraries, fire departments, public recreation, police overtime, etc but they can afford to burn money busting people for victimless crimes.

man that sucks but your buddie is ****ed

Didn't figure to do the math, lol. Definitely wouldn't see that much.. there's no way someone would try to sell 7,264 grams.

i dunno, at 20 a gram that could be a legit value but those guys weren't going to make that money, they probably would have brought in like 40 if it were real good stuff.

sorry about your boy

x2. Im guessing Kevin is your friend?

i read the comments that people left on NBC. its funny how if its someone you know, you have more sympathy for them even though it was illegal activity when we all know if it were just some guy slinging it there would be a slew of comments like "good one less off the streets". Im just saying in general bc i was guilty of that when my friend was arrested for the same thing. tell him to get a good lawyer and he'll be fine

Illegal still means illegal. And as long as there are laws against it, it will remain illegal.

I don't agree with it, but it is what it is and someone has to enforce the law, no matter how ****ty it is.

Four “green” entrepreneurs living right off the Temple University campus were arrested Tuesday for growing and selling hydro-ponic marijuana, according to Philadelphia Police Wednesday.

doug 11-22-2008 06:31 PM

hyyyyyyyyydrrrrrrrrooooooooooohhhhhhhh!

Were they selling anything else besides the green chariy?

den9 11-22-2008 06:33 PM

im guessing with good lawyers they will in jail for only 3 years, its ashame they wont be going back to college though.

jdm free 11-22-2008 06:45 PM

hydro is just a way to grow it, i meant wat strain

den9 11-22-2008 06:57 PM

apparently good, honestly i dont think it matters, 16 pounds is crazy. the only time strain matters if ur selling coke or heroin
