    Default Dope grower or sting?

    I can't find the thing anymore, it must have expired or whatever they do on that Craigslist thing, but in my search for a little motorbike for my sons I ran across a weirdly written ad. I'm recreating from memory, so it's probably not at all accurate -

    Almost new minibike, one year old, runs great. Terrorize your neighbors. $250 (that's a new price, sounds like a gun-show guy so far)
    Will trade for hipowerd rifles: .270, .30-06 or other, instruments, airline miles, 400w or 1000w hps bulbs for indoor gardeners
    Am leaving the area, must be gone by Saturday.

    I ran across 3 different ads by the same guy, only one of them had the "bulbs for indoor gardeners" but all wanted to trade for rifles. Am I paranoid, or does this sound a little ... oh hell, exactly like a pot grower looking for guns?
    A plan is just a list of things that don't happen.

    Might be starting a "Medical" marijuana bussiness.. Might want to "defend" it, form the lower forms of life...

    Just one thought...

    Growers in Northern California are well armed. Yes its ironic, militant growers and hippies coexisting on common commodity. I've heard the Mexican Cartels presence is becoming quite strong there.

    You guys sound pretty paranoid to me. Guy seems legit! 'Sides, they're just looking for a little protection. Maybe they just want to go hunting? (the competition......)

    Looks like a situation in the making of not breaking any state laws but ending up in federal prison for life. Unless he's an illegal. Then he'll just get a free bus ticket home.

    I have to say that back in the day the only people that carried were people selling pot. This was 35 years ago (wow, I am getting old) but you never saw people carry guns that sold acid or ludes or coke. Just saying....
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.
