    "The problem is that when you have these massive, industrial illegal grows, what you’re doing is putting unfair competition on an industry that is trying to be regulated."

    Says it all right there. If the government isn’t getting their cut, you’re an enemy.



  4. tubceevxwm lee on August 6, 2022 at 3:01 am

    3-4 years for millions of dollars. guessing for a lot of people that is a good risk reward.

    "Danger to residents and community"

    LOL, weed has never hurt anybody, the government couldn’t get a cut of what they’re doing, so of course they had to raid and take all that weed.



  10. Alex Mendoza on August 6, 2022 at 3:07 am

    4years lol more like evidence disappear cops didn’t show up you’re free to go sir is how it most likely will play in court

    I happened to visit that area in March and saw a round famous house on the top hill. One person I know living in that city told me there’s Chinese owned land with 400+ acres. May be that property that grows marijuana plants. There’re Asian people buying land over there to do either farming or marijuana. Who is to blame? The State of California which it creates crime. When you legally passed the law to do drug business, criminal people all over the world will come. Do you think those types of areas are safe to live even you don’t see residential housings around? No! it is thief everywhere and waiting to strike.



  15. Lee Isley on August 6, 2022 at 3:14 am

    So when is legal legal. When you pay those guys ok how about pay the Native Americans first for the land you stole and the rapes you’ve committed.πŸ€” then we can start talking about what’s right. Cherokee Nation.



  16. Crypto Jack on August 6, 2022 at 3:14 am

    Nothing major is going to happen, Uncle Sam will get his money and they will release them with a misdemeanor and the gang will proceed to do it again elsewhere.



  17. Nic T on August 6, 2022 at 3:16 am

    4 yrs in SOuthEaast Asia. Thats a death sentence. I love America



  18. Reynaldo Dizon on August 6, 2022 at 3:22 am

    It looks like the people that are arrested are Chinese ????



  19. Randy Thomas on August 6, 2022 at 3:23 am

    Unfair competition? I’d say the new farms are the outlaw businesses



  20. THE CHRONIC FILES on August 6, 2022 at 3:24 am

    Taking the property is what they did in the crack era



  21. Aj Edwards on August 6, 2022 at 3:24 am

  22. Rodolfo Quiroz on August 6, 2022 at 3:25 am

  30. THAT BLUE ACCORD on August 6, 2022 at 3:37 am

    Go up to Northern California, and all the growers will tell you they pay $10k a month to the Trooper who frequents the area just to keep them off their products…



  31. I KILL DEMONS on August 6, 2022 at 3:37 am

  32. West Side on August 6, 2022 at 3:37 am

  36. KOCC on August 6, 2022 at 3:43 am

    You people complain about the state going after these folks. However, don’t be mad when small dealers stand on the corner of your streets selling weed! Because that is how it will end up !

  44. iV4PTab on August 6, 2022 at 3:50 am

    Notice how news only referred to the criminals as "these people", they are chinese and they may be over here illegally. I’m an Asian and I am for legal migration, not illegal migration.



  45. Matthew beard on August 6, 2022 at 3:52 am

    Did anyone realize the β€œWILDFIRE” recent years were all at locations where marijuana is being grown? To control commercial business?



  49. Quang Nguyen on August 6, 2022 at 3:56 am

    San Bernardino need the weeds to party at New Berry Spring.
