Why was Tommy Chong arrested/convicted for selling bongs...?
...on the internet? Why is paraphenalia illegal?

(please excuse my morbid fascination w/the various aspects of marijuana tonight--don't know what's wrong with me)...

:P

1. It's only illegal on the internet
Bongs and other paraphenalia can be sold in shops though..(perhaps not in every state)..

2. He was used as an example
Fucking ASsCRack: A slave to hiding what a whore he is by attacking others.
There are many others who still sell paraphernalia on the Internet

4. I thought I heard that
others still sell paraphenalia--so wrong Tommy was busted to be made an example of.

Now since he's been convicted, he can't vote. :thumbsdown: He's pissed about that.

Got some good insults about Dennis Miller out of it, though. :rofl:

5. maybe just to show off the power they have?
Because really did anybody give a shit when he went to prison in the first place?
