MERRY MARIJUANA CHRISTMAS How the cops stole Christmas

Looks like the German police are busy keeping people from getting lit up. Thanks to the cops in Koblenz, one poor bastard didn’t even get to finish decorating his ‘Christmas’ tree. And the cops in Munich didn’t much care for the 'candy' in another pot head’s homemade Advent calendar.

MARIJUANA CHRISTMAS TREE SEIZED

BERLIN - A TWO-METRE marijuana plant decorated as a Christmas tree was confiscated from the home of 'an old hippie", who is now facing a drug possession charge, German police said on Wednesday.

In a tongue-in-cheek press release titled 'All you need is love or how a hippie celebrates Christmas,' police in the western city of Koblenz said they discovered the giant plant in the living room of the suspect.

'The two-metre-tall marijuana plant had been put in a Christmas tree stand and decorated with a string of lights,' the police said.

'When asked, the hashish fan told the perplexed officers that he had intended to add more decorations to the 'tree' and place the presents under it, according to tradition.' Police seized the plant and another 150 grammes (5.3 ounces) of marijuana found in the apartment.

German authorities on Tuesday said that a 21-year-old man in the southern city of Munich had been detained with a homemade Advent calendar with cannabis behind each little door instead of chocolate.

The suspect was released but now faces charges of possessing drugs. -- AFP
