A cable company worker discovered several booby-trapped marijuana plants at a duplex west of Lake Worth Wednesday afternoon, sheriff's officials said.

Three plants were protected by tripwires and spike-filled pits, officials said. The bomb squad was called to make sure explosives were not connected to the wires, Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office Spokesman Paul Miller said. After a search, the bomb squad found no explosives.

Several residents were evacuated, and the area surrounding the home in the 4100 block of 42nd Way South was cordoned off just before noon as investigators secured the marijuana, which was planted along a canal bank on a dead-end street. Deputies cleared the scene at about 3 p.m.
 
That's actually not that unusual. There was a report years ago concerning drug growers booby-trapping areas where they had plants growing, some of them in national parks and forests.
 
my friend who tried to grow some at his house one time, his mom found out and secretly pour salt solution all over it.

true story.

Wow, that cable company worker is an asshole.

why?

because he ratted someone out, yes I KNOW its illegal, however i woudl have seen it and gone cool someones growing weed and moved on

So it would be ok if someone who doesn't give two sh!ts about drugs is impaled (or seriously injured) by spikes in a pit?

Obviously according to their ethical standards, yes.

I think the booby traps is a bit more of an issue than the pot...
So, if you moved on and a 12 year old kid fell into one of the pits with spikes, you'd think "cool, he deserved it for messing with someone else's ganja"???!

editted for tone: didn't notice he was a lifer 🙂
 
Well my name's john lee pettimore
Same as my daddy and his daddy before
You hardly ever saw grandaddy down here
He only came to town about twice a year
He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line
Everybody knew that he made moonshine
Now the revenue man wanted grandaddy bad
He headed up the holler with everything he had
It's before my time but i've been told
He never came back from copperhead road

Now daddy ran the whiskey in a big block dodge
Bought it at an auction at the mason's lodge
Johnson county sheriff painted on the side
Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside
Well him and my uncle tore that engine down
I still remember that rumblin' sound
Well the sheriff came around in the middle of the night
Heard mama cryin', knew something wasn't right
He was headed down to knoxville with the weekly load
You could smell the whiskey burnin' down copperhead road

I volunteered for the army on my birthday
They draft the white trash first,'round here anyway
I done two tours of duty in vietnam
And i came home with a brand new plan
I take the seed from colombia and mexico
I plant it up the holler down copperhead road
Well the d.e.a.'s got a chopper in the air
I wake up screaming like i'm back over there

I learned a thing or two from ol' charlie don't you know
You better stay away from copperhead road.
