Tommy Chong Gets 9 Years Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

For selling drug paraphenalia - bongs over the internet. Gee, I feel so much safer now. Let us know which rapist or murderer will get an early release to make room for Chong...

How can they prohibit their sale? You can use them for tobacco, too.

So much for the claim made by some drug war pushers that people aren't jailed for pot possession; hell, they're jailing people for bongs.

Boris, Chong admitted he sold bongs for smoking pot. But yes, since tobacco can be smoked thru a bong - a legal activity - shouldn't they be jailing gun dealers and manufacturers since some people buy guns to engage in illegal activities?

That's a lot more sane. Still unjust, IMO, but for a second I was really astonished...

And just think, as we speak Senator Orin "The Crooner" Hatch is working to modify the Patriot Act to allow it to be used more directly in the War on Some Drugs.

That's because the US now knows that there are direct links between Cheech & Chong and Al Qaeda.

He was tagged in Federal District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, the same US Attorney's jurisdiction that's prosecuting the porn producers from LA that were the subject of a thread a few days ago.

Apparently, Ashcroft has a friendly US Attorney and some friendly judges in Pittsburgh.

I'm still waiting for someone to discredit his sources. The man presented information, supported by sources, and no one has yet to even argue against anything he's said.

Yeah, just like his movie downsize this in which he interviewed tons of representatives of big companies making big profits, that had just fired a large amount of people, so they could move the factories to mexico or east-asia where ppl merrily work for a few cents/hour.

All he did was ask simple questions like: why did you do it when you were making profits?

they could never answer that simple question.. the standard response was that they had to remain competitive; but the funny thing is they were making a lot of money already with the people they were employing already...

You know, there's a headshop here in town that has a warning sign along the lines of:

DO NOT SAY WHAT YOU'RE THINKING!!!!
THESE ARE PIPES!!!
IF IT RHYMES WITH "WRONG" THEN IT'S WRONG!!!!

Next time I'm in their I'll suggest amending that last line to

IF IT RHYMES WITH "CHONG" THEN IT'S WRONG!!!!
