  1. Probably just enough for two joints with a stupid guarda estimate

  2. I’ve been losing sleep at night thank the lord they seized this devils lettuce!

  3. Will they ever just fuck off with this…because weed is the real problem the guards need to be focusing on

  4. Just checked me shed. Still have me ten spot. Happy days. I dodged that bullet.

  5. Ah damn, think of the shops that won’t be raided for munchies now! The lads planning on having a quiet night in with a few joints will have to go out and drink and cause chaos now. Great job gardai! What’s the story with that citizens assembly on drugs?

  6. €1,000,000+ worth to the economy if it was legal, and taxable

  7. What effect does this have?

    Slightly increasing the income for those who sell it and didn’t have it seized?

  8. This year the state of Colorado broke the $1 billion barrier on tax generated from dispensary sales. It is negligence for us to continue to waste money on this and not profit off this while the rest of the world opens up. Joke shop.
    My vote goes to the 1st party who backs full legalisation.

  9. €611,000?!?! According to Garda pricing, that’s like 11….maybe even TWELVE WHOLE ounces of the devil’s lettuce!

  10. It’s 2024 and we are still running around catching a plant

  11. so we’re in agreement this is 100% nowhere near 611k worth

  12. I’m going to LA next mouth I’m gonna smoke my brains out, all very legal and the society is far better off because of it. Plus the amount of money they take from taxes.

  13. Imagine if it was legal, regulated and taxed, with the tax money going to mental health services and the Garda, I dunno, maybe went after people selling heroin.
    Guess thats a dumb idea

  14. This is not a win for society. A win for society would be to legalise cannabis and use the resources to reduce the amount of antisocial behaviour and vehicle theft.

  15. Jesus Christ I hate this country. So fuckin backwards. Imagine being behind America on this.. ridiculous.

  16. Think of all the money lost not legalizing and taxing this and instead paying guards to catch people using it.

  17. Feral youth have taken over parts of the country. Breaking the law in broad daylight with zero fear.

    But we’ll done lads. Keep chasing the plant the rest of the world is legalising.

  18. Don’t care that it’s cannabis, do care that it perpetuates a larger illegal drug empire that profits from ruining lives, sex trafficking & petty crime.

  19. Is it actually worth that much or is this price the guards said

  20. Well done to the Gardai for enforcing the legislation regarding possession of illegal substances.

  21. They sit up in athlone sorting deport, drinking tea, watching the parcels arrive, whilst there dog runs around and sniffs out envelopes of weed for them.
    Once again it’s absolutely unnecessary lazy policing with the least amount of effort they can put it.
    Maybe on the way home they pull up onto the hardshoulder on the motorway and stop someone for speeding along at 130km/h in a 120.
    Whilst all the time we’re all getting mugged & property stolen that they can’t be arsed to police.
    I hate this whole bullshit garda situation, they’re a pile of shit

  22. Spain & the mocro are tied in a death spiral of gangsterism

  23. I’d be in favour of it being legal, but not through the nonsense medicalisation route a lot of places like the US have used.
