That's fucked up.

At least he probably won't have it too rough in the clink.

*phew*

The streets are safe again.

playa · 09-11-2003, 06:03 PM

What i don't understand is if it was Legal Before to sell it,
then all of a sudden one day it becomes illegal, You could goto jail for it?

I been to a resturant that had these water pipes that you can buy to smoke this fruity tobacco. so i am guessing technically its not all used to smoke drugs with

well from now on, i think i am gonna block anything going or comming from Pennsylvania. They seem to be the place to catch a federal lawsuit

Anthony_A · 09-11-2003, 06:03 PM

For selling Glass Bongs?!

WTF?

09-11-2003, 06:03 PM

Pathetic.

Chong · 09-11-2003, 06:05 PM

they busted a bunch of paraphanalia sites at the same time they busted a bunch of mp3 sites

beemk · 09-11-2003, 06:06 PM

they just busted him to make an example out of someone. who else better to make an example of other than the legendary potsmoker Chong?

drunkmonkey · 09-11-2003, 06:06 PM

Damn I am glad we spent billions of dollars towards the "war on drugs" so that we could get these evil 65 year old actors off the streets. I mean, he was selling glass pipes, for god's sake. The horror of it is inconceivable. It brings chills to my spine thinking that this crazed bongmaker was loose and walking amongst our children. Could you imagine if a poor 8 year old child would have had contact with a glass pipe? They would have been scared for life.

I am glad to see that some sort of justice was served to all those poor people abused by the glass pipe makers of the world. The least we should do is burn him at the stake.

playa · 09-11-2003, 06:08 PM

What a joke, its obivous they was making an example out of him.

He should of Hired Johnny Cochrane

Its illegal to sell a bong because that implies marijuana. Its not illegal to sell a water pipe.

NBDesign · 09-11-2003, 06:26 PM

They sell them here in Arizona.. but you CANNOT call them Bongs or they will not sell them to you.. you must call them water pipes.

beemk · 09-11-2003, 06:30 PM

its a good thing he cant be fucked with in jail, did you see half baked? hes a bad motherfucker. hahaha

Preacher · 09-11-2003, 06:37 PM

Edit: I don't smoke pot myself (anymore)... but I just hate this hypocritical behaviour

Ketadream · 09-11-2003, 06:44 PM

I would sugest you read into this a bit more, cause this can and does effect our industry...

I want to say that I dont agree with what happened and I realy feel for him and his family

1) If they want to arrest you they will, end of story...

2) He was arrested due to being an Icon...nice statement are you a icon in this industry...

3) They found a pound of pot in his possession when the searched him...

Have you posted publicly about doing drugs on a public forum, what if you where investigated on an obsenity charge and they found your stash...

Just cause you have mad bling or whatever you want to call having a bit of cash does not make you immune...

Watch your shit and keep your back yard clean and keep your mouth shut about anything you do that could get you in trouble...

A crime to some, an important public service to others.

It's time to stop the war on drugs.

I'm almost positive the pipes were billed as "Chong's Bongs"

Another great example of our tax dollars at work A classic crock if you ask me.

Crackhouses exist because of the war on drugs, just as the speakeasy existed as a result of the prohibition days.
