The couple, who live in Bedford, had planted the drug in their garden.

Police officers were astounded when they spotted the plant. They have collected it and a spokesperson said it would be disposed of.

The couple will face no action from the police.

The officers took to their @bedfordlpt Twitter account to express their surprise at the find, saying: "Seized today. Elderly couple bough

Just imagine if hemp were legal. It would grow fast and lush, and do so much for our world.

Here it'd be more like - If they were any age.

Altho in a couple of territories here in Aus (ACT and NT) you are allowed to grow upto 2 outdoor plants for personal use, pity it's not in the state where I am tho, which is no plants and if you do it's a criminal offence.

Cops profile the hell out of people. A side effect of the war on drugs is extra profiling because beyond assuming that people that look different have committed some other crime, they can assume that drugs caused them to look that way.
