So why is Border Patrol arresting American citizens inside the United States for drug possession? And not only American citizens, Willie Nelson, seriously Border Patrol? With all the people crossing the border illegally, you done and caught yourself Willie F'n Nelson for Marijuana possession! Bravo! Bravo!!
Leave this poor guy alone. The DRUG WAR is a fraud. Legalize all drugs, tax the revenue, rid the cartels. THAT'S A STRATEGY. Harassing Willie Nelson is moronic. That is my opinion.
Man, it's a tough week for Willie.....they also found his tunnel.
Let Willie and compatriots alone. Oh yeah. Its really bad for your health okey........being Willie's age shows. Let the guy alone . Smoking in the White House , how funny !!!! We agree.....FREE WILLIE and shame on the boarder patrol officer that busted Willie in his tour bus. Wow, a no brainer !!!!!!!!!!
Such an effective and efficient use of our tax dollars... MORONS!
They dont have any thing better to do ,Ask your self America who was it that helped the farmers with farm aid,this countrys law enforcement is a joke .go after the suppliers of drugs,I hope the guy is happy he busted one of our real American heros.
Whinning Pot Heads blah blah blah blah...legalize pot....blah blah blah. This country would be stupid for legalizing Pot so I am glad to see this Pot Head getting what he deserves and being a celebrity doesn't make him special.
As liberal as Calfornia is they didn't legalize pot this past election.
Typical Republican tryin to tell others what the hell to do, yet complain about big government. You sir are a damn moron.
A neocon trying to infringe on people's personal freedom through government intervention.
As always, right wingers are hypocrites.
I hope the fine was minimal even though willie can probably afford it.it is the principal of how laws are f***ed up.George Pappard son was arrested by the famous two legged drug sniffing dog in central utard,sorry utah.38 pounds got 0 jail time, 3000 doller fine.I have failed one ua in my life and I was arrested on public intox in my recliner watching nascar. Total loses, 40,000+ dollars and 30 days in jail.No oter charges but public intox at home! I hate this f***ed up country but unlike willie and pappard jr,I am broke. I sincerely wish I could be like frank serpico and I had somewhere to go.power on willie!and thanks for everything!
Willie Nelson arrested on pot charges? I'm shocked. Really, just shocked!
Sorry that was 90 days in jail!
That explains why he didn't pay his taxes a while back... He was using the 10-99 form to roll a doobie
Better be caught with pot than driving drunk like alot of celebreties, Lohan, Gibson, etc... they are dangerous. People if you didn't know that alcohol is more dangerous than weed, well now you do!

If he isn't the poster boy for Old Hillbilly drug addicts, then what is? Look at his face. He should go on tour to schools to scare kids from ever doing drugs.
