Thread: 14-times Olympic gold medal winner Michael Phelps caught with cannabis pipe

Gosh! No matter how much they try to vilify the use of this medicinal herb, people will always smoke weed.

You would think that if a world class athelete (believe me he is not the only one) could smoke pot, and still perform with greatness,it would be wise to stop this foolishness and legalize it.

I don't care that he smoked it, I am one that believes it should be legalized, however it's still illegal and carries a stigma.

Yeah, I agree. But, in 2009, do you believe these stigmas are still valid?

oh yeah, not as much no doubt, but until its legalized it will be frowned upon.

Man, you would think that with the economy in the toilet,it would be legalized. Not only is it a medical wonder, but a panacea for this troubled economy as well.

But, big Pharma wouldn't be able to capitalize on something that grows in the ground...hence the illegality of it!

right, that is the problem, the majority would be home grown and the government would not benefit from taxing it like alcohol, otherwise it would have been legalized years ago IMO.

Yeah, that seems to be the conundrum...greed always greed.

That's their motto, "If we can't patent it then ban it!"

I have to disagree here, I think if it was mass produced taxed and sold it would be more popular then growing it yourself.

Americans like instant gratification and I don't think most people are capable of growing quality pot, its not like an herb garden if you want dank.

I did not mean that people would all grow their own, the current growers would grow and sell more.

Didn't Rush Limbaugh get caught (on film & audio) buying a briefcase full of prescription drugs, from his housekeeper ? Yet, he just got over a HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR RADIO DEAL, no jail time, and no charges for what has to be a felony ?
Phelps deserves a break.

He received a 3 month suspension from events and funding from the US federation.

Kellogg's also won't be renewing his contract at the end of this month.

My friend and I were just talking about this and he said (and I totally agree) that Michael could literally rape a couple people and he would still be a hero to us (my friend and I). Heck he could rape me and I'd still love him (well, I guess that was a no-brainer ).

To: Kellogg's Corporation Whereas...

1) Kellogg's is a major manufacturer of cereal and junk food products including but not limited to Frosted Flakes, Pop Tarts, Cheez-Its, Froot Loops, Keebler's Cookies, Rice Krispies, Eggo Frozen Waffles, Famous Amos Cookies and many other products known to be a part of the diet of many marijuana using Americans

2) The Kellogg's has profited for decades on the food tastes of marijuana using Americans with the munchies. In fact, we believe that most people over the age of twelve would not eat Kellogg's products were they not wicked high.

3)That Kellogg's has decided to end their relationship with Olympic Swimmer Michael Phelps after pictures of him surfaced doing exactly what most Kellogg's customers do right before enjoying a bowl of Rice Krispies mixed with Keebler Cookies with an Eggo on top.

4) That this action by Kellogg's, while legal, is totally bogus.

5) That Kellogg's is a big fat hypocrite, just like our parents when they found our stash under our mattress and took it and then later they sat in the living room and listened the Dark Side Of The Moon over and over and danced and laughed and I swear we smelled something.
John Harvey.

6) That a quick Wikipedia search shows the founder of Kellogg's - john Harvey Kellogg - was a total frickin' weirdo who believe in putting children's genitals in a cage to keep them from playing with themselves and also believed in yogurt enemas.

7) That seriously, just Google John Harvey Kellogg. Dude was freaky.

8) That the thing about yogurt enemas makes us want to hurl when we look at that box of Kellogg's Yogos we have in the pantry.

9) That Michael Phelps should totally drop YOU dudes for your obsession with bran and fiber and masturbation and butts and stuff. You drop HIM? Dude won eight gold medals and probably didn't stick a single one in his butt or tie it in tourniquet around his naughty bits. Dude was just trying to relax. Seriously Kellogg's, WTF?

Given all these facts and the total disregard for your customer base and that thing with the yogurt, we the undersigned plan to BOYCOTT your products.

And we're serious.

Even though the Pop Tarts thing will be HARD.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned

Hah, I used to eat a lot of frosted flakes and poptarts, but not anymore.
Fuck that fake nasty junk food and the idiots who run the company.

Bong that Michael Phelps used lands owner in jail after he tries to sell it on eBay for $100k

Haha. Obviously, he never heard of Tommy Chong!

Hahaha.

If the guy had cleaned it and gotten rid of all the residue, why would he go to jail for it?

I can go to a plethora of local shops and pick up a bong, why can't I get one on ebay?
