Miss Louisiana Teen USA Arrested for Being Dumb
October 22nd, 2008 by Alex
Oh the ole’ dine & dash routine. Miss Louisiana Teen USA Lindsey Evans, for all of her good looks, has no future as a master criminal.
The cajun beauty queen left her purse, weed bag (in the purse) and a $46 bill behind when she and her friends ditched out on a meal. Evans, to her credit, left her portion of the check on the table, but foiled the getaway for her friends when she went back to the restaurant for her purse and the police were still there. D’oh!
A crucial step in the ‘dash’ part is to actually take your personal belongings along. Cops can be slow, but with your ID they might just be able to make a collar.
It doesn’t matter much if she loses her crown, as the next Miss Louisiana will be chosen next month anyway…

Third Grader Arrested on Suspicion-Based Drug Testing Policy
October 21st, 2008 by Alex
This is some troubling shit.
A third grader at Muldown Elementary School was one of the first students arrested in the school district’s new suspicion-based drug testing policy. At first glance, I thought this was going to be another case of drug prevention gone wrong… until I read the article.
This 3rd grader smoked pot in the bathroom of his elementary school, asked classmates if they wanted to smoke, and finally confessed after being confronted with his ditched pipe. Considering the confession was “reasonable suspicion,” he was tested and suspended for 3 days.
The odd thing is, after the reasonable suspicion exists, parents aren’t required to give consent for drug tests on a child - the schoolboard can go ahead no matter what.
I don’t know whether to be surprised or depressed about 3rd graders smoking weed in school. In my opinion, it seems more than ridiculous that an elementary school needs a drug testing policy, but that’s just a sad statement on current society.
Instead, I think it’s time to recommend a suspicion-based parent sterilization program, but that’s just me.
Erratic Driving and Mobile Greenhouse Do Not Mix
October 20th, 2008 by Perry
Word to the wise. If you’re going to drive erratically, make sure you unload the plants and grow kit you’re storing in the back of your vehicle.
How dumb is this guy? Well, this excerpt here sums it up pretty well:
Police arrested Jarrick M. Franc, 36, at 10:17 p.m. Saturday after an officer witnessed Franc nearly hit a parked car while traveling at a high rate of speed near Rockford Avenue and Augusta Street, police said. The officer pulled over Franc and noticed several large plants occupying the cargo area of the van that Franc was driving. There was a distinct smell of marijuana, the report states.
Apparently, you can’t just drive around in a moving greenhouse anymore? I’m sorry, I thought this was America.
Florida Couple to Share Shitbag of the Month Award
October 17th, 2008 by Perry
It takes a lot to offend me, but leaving out your bag of weed so your 18-month old child can wander in and eat from it, is wrong on a lot of levels.
Who does that? Way to take every negative stoner stereotype, magnify it by ten and then get on national news for everyone in the country to see. How dim does that poor kid’s future look? When I saw the mugshots of his parents, the first thing I thought was relief that the baby didn’t find any meth.
The Bust Counter Reaches 20,000,000
October 10th, 2008 by Perry
According to government statistics, by Friday Uncle Sam will have arrested 20 million Americans for marijuana use. And there’s no sign those numbers will slow down any time soon.
But don’t take it from me, take it from NORML executive director Allen St. Pierre:
This policy is a tremendous waste of taxpayers’ resources; it destroys the lives of millions of otherwise law-abiding citizens, and threatens the personal liberties and freedoms of all Americans. We’ve now arrested more American citizens for pot than the entire population of Massachusetts, Michigan, and Oregon combined.
Wow.
Stanislaus River Canyon Wastes Potential Tax Revenue
October 9th, 2008 by Perry
Yesterday, law enforcement in Sonora “eradicated” 3,090 marijuana plants.
The plants were valued at $2,500 each, and that this year, they’ve already destroyed 113,113 plants. To put it in perspective, if that were taxable income for somebody, it might have put $2,262,280 put in the government coffers for improving the city.
Can You Dig it?

This guy probably can.
Antonio Morales Barrios, 41, received two and a half years for his role - presumably as a watchdog - supervising a house that hid a 120-mile border-crossing underground tunnel. This is just 1 of 60 authorities have found since the post-9/11 heightening of border patrols.
Oh, and more than 1,000 pounds of marijuana was found, so he probably wasn’t acting alone, but no one else was named in the charges. These sort of operations are high risk, high reward and generally don’t stay operational for more than three months. This particular tunnel lasted two months before the Calexico authorities discovered it.
Music Teacher with Pot Passes Out in School Parking Lot
October 2nd, 2008 by Perry
Oh man, you almost have to feel sorry for this guy. First of all, he probably works at the high school he attended in small town Virginia. And his career is probably over. And he’s living in his car? Or just got high and passed out.
Either way, probably want to find a better spot next time before you get caught in the school parking lot with weed on you.
