Any Dealers Want a Mustang from an Idiot?
A recent ad on Craigslist is offering a 5.0 Mustang for 2 lbs of marijuana. The above picture is not the mustang in question. In what is obviously a case of police entrapment, a man in San Francisco wants to trade his Mustang for weed because of leg pain. He says that doctors won’t give him a marijuana card, so he’s turning to Craigslist for help. Read on to find out where he (ahem police) went wrong.
The anonymous ad even mentions that 2 lbs translates into 454 grams (for all you Europeans out there). This isn’t true. 1 lb=16 ounces. There is a little over 28 grams in an ounce (approximately 28.35). That means a little under 454 grams (which is too say, he is only gonna give you 1 pound). That isn’t even the best part. No that distinction goes to the tags associated with the entreaty:
“keywords: purp, weed, marijuana, kush, haze, northern lights, sour diesel, rasberry kush, strawberry kush, grapes, THC, medical marijuana, bone thugs n harmony, bob marley, tupac, lil troy, BIGGIE, mac dre”
I say it’s obviously being run by police because of all the marijuana buzz words in the tags. “Purp” might as well be perp as this is a new low for Bay Area police.
Here it is via Gawker.

Wouldn't it be smarter to just sell the car and use the money to buy weed instead?

Godamn that was the worst article I've read in my life. Learn to fucking spell. Jesus Christ that was painful to read.
Secondly, you also seem to have no clue about anything.
"That means a little under 454 grams (which is too say, he is only gonna give you 1 pound)". Uh.. he's RECIEVING the pot, not giving it, so he's selling himself short.
And it isn't the police, as that would be entrapment. Grow the fuck up, stop blaming the police for your failed life.

There are no entrapment laws anymore. Haven't been for a long time.
