You are not Ganja believe this. It looks like New Orleans may have a problem with a rodent mafia.
The vast majority of people who smoke weed do so at least once a week, with about half of users consuming the product daily. Research shows that rats respond to cannabis in the same way as humans. So I guess it is not out of the ordinary that some rodents prefer to hit the herb from time to time.
A rat colony made a joint decision to get high off the New Orleans Police Department drug supply by breaking into the evidence room.
According to The New York Post:
Reefer-loving rodents are gobbling up the cannabis stash held under lock and key in the New Orleans Police Department’s dilapidated evidence room, officials announced on Monday.
“The rats are eating our marijuana,” Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick told the City Council’s Criminal Justice Committee, according to NOLA.com.
“They’re all high.”
Kirkpatrick’s startling report came as she pleaded with city councilors to fund a new home for the Big Easy’s police force.
She argued that the current police headquarters, built in 1968, are not fit for a modern force — describing how the elevators are broken, there is no air conditioning, and officers are forced to work around the rat and cockroach droppings scattered on their desks.
The stoned rats are of particular concern because their taste for marijuana could jeopardize criminal cases, she noted.
“The uncleanliness is off the charts,” Kirkpatrick told city officials on Monday.
“The janitorial cleaning [team] deserves an award, trying to clean what is uncleanable.”
This is unbe-weed-able! But I guess that is one way to describe why all the evidence went missing…..
Jokes aside, since 1872, all Mayors elected in New Orleans have been Democrats. So it is no surprise that the police department is being overcome by a rodent infestation considering where the Left goes, rats go.
However, the City Council is in the process of approving a new lease downtown.
But trying to fix all the problems the current headquarters are facing — including trying to exterminate the stoner rats — would cost three times as much, according to Chief Administrative Officer Gilbert Montaño.
Police officials now hope to move into the high rise by May 1, according to WWLTV.
Many councilmembers said this was news to them and they had no clue this was going on for years. But I don’t know about that considering I did hear local officials engage with a lot of bureauc-rats.
That said, at least they are expected to move to a new building. Hopefully, the rat colony does not include a nomad-ic mouse majority.
This Stalin Soviet Jacket Cost How Much?!
