To another neighborhood with 11 homes? Didn't those take 14 years? That weed is a slow growing catastrophe. He'll put lots of work in before it's discovered as a problem. And then when he finally leaves, fuck him. Who cares? He as a whole neighborhood that's fucking worthless.

Because it's illegal as fuck to take it over state lines. If you research the conservation material or whatever, they often have a map of exactly where someone has found it so they can keep an eye on it.
