Los Angeles is trying to replace its entertainment industry with a bigger industry, the drug industry.
"Northern California's so-called Emerald Triangle, famous for marijuana farms that supply much of the U.S. with high-quality pot, is facing competition from hundreds of miles away in Los Angeles County.
As this year's marijuana-harvest season gets under way, law-enforcement officials are focused on the Southern California county, which by some measures has bloomed into the nation's most productive pot garden."
"Law-enforcement agents seized more than 734,000 pot plants in Los Angeles County last year the highest number of seizures in the country for that year. The haul surpassed those even in California's most-prolific northern counties, with the biggest 2009 seizure coming from Shasta County at 629,000 plants."
Thought you should know where the marijuana is grown. Why? Because where marijuana is grown crime grows. Maybe this is why so many people in LA are buying guns.
