Nelson pulled for pushing puff

How the political process works in America:

Willie Nelson goes to support Kinky Friedman's Gubernatorial campaign in Texas, and calls for the legalisation of cannabis.

Two days later, Willie Nelson is pulled over and searched in Louisiana. Like fish speared in barrel, the troopers found a bit of blow and some shrooms.

Names were taken; not just Willie's, either:

Aside from the 73-year-old ringleader, citations were issued to his sister, Bobbie Nelson, 75, of Briarcliff, Texas; Tony Sizemore, 59, of St. Cloud, Florida; Gates Moore, 54, from Austin; and David Anderson, 50, of Dallas.

If further action is taken, Nelson and his friends could face up to six months in prison. Of course, it's not a victimless crime because... well, the cops had to fill in all that paperwork, and that hurts their wrists.
