Methamphetamine? Ecstasy? Nah, let’s target this DANGEROUS plant.
Glad to see Vic Pol making the streets a safer place, i love seeing shard heads on the Frankston line! GOOD JOB VIC POLICE! Arrest those stoners. Keep the Victoria safe and let the shard heads roam free, and the meth labs to keep producing!

Well thank goodness for this. People might have smoked all that marijuana and then, uh, you know, ordered a pizza and passed out before it arrived. The horror!
LOL,your comment. True tho.
