Wow, That's A Lot of Weed.

Yahoo/AP are reporting Police in Mexico have seized at least 105 tons of marijuana. Marijuana is typically consumed in amounts measured in grams. One ounce is dozens of grams. One pound is 16 ounces.

The officer in the photo below is holding one pound of marijuana.

Multiply this by at least 210,000.

This amount of weed boggles the mind, and not just the minds of those "guarding" the burning of the seized drugs.
