Willie,
We love you in Colorado! Move here where you can get a medical marijuana card and be legal while in Colorado.
Yes, anyone can get a marijuana "card" in Colorado because of the fraudulent farce that is the Colorado medical marijuana law. Never mind the upspike in home invasions and other drug-related activities.
Thank God the majority of voters denied the dopers and their supporters this joke in my state this year.
AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT SEES THE HYPOCRISY IN THIS. HOW MANY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ARE WE GOING TO CONTINUE SPENDING ON THIS FAILED WAR(?) ON DRUGS WHILE CHILDREN GO HUNGRY, LACK PROPER HEALTHCARE, CLOTHING AND ATTEND ILL-EQUIPPED SCHOOLS WHILE THOSE THAT CREATED THE BIGGEST DEFICIT THIS COUNTRY HAS EVER SEEN DURING EIGHT YEARS OF GROSS MISMANAGEMENT OF THE ECONOMY SCREAM THAT FUNDING CHILDREN’S PROGRAMS WOULD BE DETRIMENTAL TO THE ECONOMY. ALL HAIL WILLY.
"I'll never smoke weed with willie again" good ole Toby Keith
This is news. I thought this was a daily occurrence. More tax payers money at waste! Way to go!!!
how pathetic... arrest an old man that everybody knows over some pot. what is wrong with our government that this is even an issue? control freaks?
Leave Willie Nelson alone and stop "hustling and shaking" him down for money. Leave my Willie Nelson alone, at his age his pot is his medicine because he's not a pill popping senior citizen and he isn't hurting anyone.
I agree 100%! Excellent point!
But, he IS a criminal.
You should have used the tunnel Willie!!!
Let the man go! He is a living legend and he is hurting no one. Such a waste of law enforcement time and money.
The Headline should read: National Treasure and Legend Willie Nelson has his civil rights violated by police-state, freedom-hating goons.
Free Willie!
My Willie is free, and hard.
Free and hard-ly visible.
Lol Nice.
Cmon, the dude is 90 years old!!! Why are we wasting our resources, tax dollars arresting a harmless individual like this. Let him live out his old age in peace. This is absolutely ridiculous.
So, the assh0l3 was contibuting to drug violence in Mexico by using the product?
Come on WIllie, why can't you buy domestic?
THANKS Willie .... it's been a really slow news day !!!
