Your opening statement is pretty hilarious, as are some of the responses-- and both say plenty about the inhabitants of this site. No one in Colorado gives a fuck about 'competition' from illegal growers moving to the state, except the few remaining local black market scammers, and they are a dying breed. We're growing our own out here, legally for the most part, many bending the rules, but the glory days of bulk black market growing are gone, and for the most part that's been accepted and welcomed, for good reason. What remains are people breaking the law by selling weed out of state, and we're happy to shut them down, because they are fucking up the structure of legal growing we created for ourselves, the state residents. Someone wants to grow and divert pounds out of state? That's a criminal operation, with all the attendant risks to the public-- and it deserves to get busted. They're not 'competion' for what we're doing here-- they're criminals. They don't care about growing for old dying patients who need cannabis, they don't care about growing for kids who have horrible seizures, they don't care about our rights as citizens under the constitution-- they care about making money, pure and simple. If they just wanted to grow weed, they could do that legally, with no risk, and no backlash. No-- they want to make money for themselves, and by doing so risk everything special we worked and fought for. Fuck those people.
