That tactic is novel, but it's so difficult to patrol sparcely settled terrain that some of this will no doubt go unnoticed. And some of it which is noticed will go unpunished, because law enforcement will have been bought off. This is the way that things inevitably go, when laws try to prevent a significant number of people from doing what they want to do.

We could get much more benefits more society by legalizing and taxing this commodity.
