Portable dope lab[edit]
This reads like something out of the anarchists cookbook.. Just terrible. "A portable dope lab is a mobile drug lab where weed renegades manufacture dope for there homies in gang territory and other places"... Delete I say.. Preisler 01:36, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, un-encyclopaedic. Megan1967 01:44, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, obviously. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 02:36, Feb 24, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Nonsense. - Jpo 02:45, Feb 24, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Where are the notable references and evidence to prove that this thing exists? Zzyzx11 06:11, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I'm reasonably certain that I have heard numerous references to "portable drug labs," but (a) this isn't "lab"; (b) the definition is ... *ahem* ... in need of help; and, (c) I don't think either term is encyclopedic (except perhaps deserving mention in a larger article on illicit drugs).

- Delete, no potential to become verifiable and encyclopedic. Primer time, kids: Although the word "dope" has been used (since the 1920s or earlier) for heroin or for marijuana or for illicit drugs as a class, "weed" is cannabis plants, marijuana, which isn't "manufactured" in "labs", it's grown. There is no point in a mobile lab for "weed renegades", unless you really want to hang harvested plants upside-down in a trailer for a week and risk the odor drawing law-enforcement attention. Some white frat boy must have watched a movie about black teens ("there homies"???) and tried to make a WP entry as a vanity exercise. Preisler's comment is disrespectful to the real Anarchists' Cookbook. Barno 21:07, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I suspect that SamuraiClinton is the Suffix/neologism vandal as well. Rhobite 23:38, Feb 26, 2005 (UTC)
