Johnny Knoxville Says Willie Nelson Should Be Allowed to Smoke Marijuana
K Kaufmann | Starpulse | 09/25/2006

Johnny Knoxville has blasted Louisiana law officials for busting pal Willie Nelson on marijuana possession charges, insisting the country great should be given a pass to smoke pot. Nelson was cited for possession of marijuana and narcotic mushrooms after a Louisiana cop smelled trouble on the singer's tour bus during a traffic stop last week.

And Knoxville admits he was appalled that police didn't just let his pal drive on.

He says, "He gets arrested in Louisiana for weed? I mean if he's not singing a benefit for Louisiana or for the farmers he's singing a song about the city of New Orleans - and they bust him for weed? He should have rolling fields of marijuana to harvest at any time. Leave Willie alone, man... Let Willie smoke."

It's great that Johnny Knoxville is sticking up for Willie Nelson, but what about the rest of us? Shouldn't we be given a pass to smoke pot? It shouldn't matter if someone is famous or not, why should they be given more breaks than us when it comes to getting busted for some pot or anything else?

One thing you can say is that if the cop didn't let Willie Nelson go, then hes probably not going to let any pot smoker go, therefore doing his job. If i was busted for pot by a certain cop and then found out that the same officer let someone famous go, i'd be pissed.

Forgot to add that this is why the drug war has to end. Everday people get charged for a victimless crime.
