UPDATE: Shame on A&E We thought they were smarter than airing a salacious pot-umentary that could’ve been written in the Regan Era, and blamed medicinal marijuana for all of Humboldt’s booming economy problems. Because it was booming with people’s money they didn’t want. Well straight couples moved into my precious gay ghetto of Weho and you don’t see me crying about the rent going up and the neighborhood changing.
Don’t watch this dated viewpoint, which mumbles the benefits of medicinal marijuana under it’s breath, while it scares it’s viewers into believing the drug creates problems for landlords renting to people and big business coming to town.
I was so pissed I WROTE IN AND I NEVER WRITE IN TO NETWORKS!
We all know Intervention’s a big hit for A&E but try demonizing a drug the President agrees is a treat at LEAST!
In their new documentary Intervention: Pot City, USA which airs tonight at 9PM Pacific on A&E they follow the Humboldt County Drug Task Force as they go after over 1000 illegal home grows.
If we want legal marijuana state wide part of the process is weeding out the bad seeds and Mexican drug lords operating in Cali and make it legit by taxing our businesses. Too bad they don’t focus on gang activity just massive grows that damage rental properties.
A lot of people think that Humboldt County in northern California is an American paradise. Small towns in the county like Arcata look like they’ve been plucked right out of a Norman Rockwell painting. But the town has a dirty little secret–law enforcement officials say that over 1,000 homes there may be growing marijuana illegally. Capt. Mark Chapman and the Humboldt County Drug Task Force are determined to take back the town, house by house. Our cameras follow as they make busts and fly over forestlands searching for hidden marijuana groves.
Go A&E, let’s hope they handle the patient and benefits aspect and it’s not just Dog, The Pot Hunter. Oh wait it was WORSE!
