The first day of legal marijuana use in Washington State was marred by an attempted robbery ending with two deaths at an alleged pot-growing facility just south of Seattle.

Wow, look at the spin ABC News put on this one.

The article says a homeowner shot dead two burglars who tried to rob him. The "growing center" was a bunch of plants in his attic. This propaganda is perfect, so bad, it will wake people up to how propaganda works.

Check out this statement from the story:

While the law passed in November made it legal to carry and consume marijuana, Sgt. Sean Whitcomb of the Seattle Police Department said cultivating and selling the drug outside of medical dispensaries is still a crime.

"When you're engaged in that type of criminal activity, there is an element of risk," Whitcomb told ABC News Friday.

Synopsis: Presstitute Sarah Parnass tries to make a pro 2nd amendment story (since homeowners never actually use a gun for defense, as we all know) about a man killing two masked home invaders into a story about the evils of marijuana. Amazing.

If you want a daily dose of laughable propaganda, Yahoo Finance is the place to be.

What normally could be a story about a heroic home owner who fights off thieves turns into one about the demonization of a plant. Well, there you have it. Theyre going to use the old "its the guns fault" story template and replace it with "its the plants fault." Lets just outlaw what jewelry, banks, and convenience stores sell/have because their products cause so many problems.
