Jo Jo's NO NO in NYC...Dude, How Stupid Are You?

Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons nephew Jo Jo Simmons was BUSTED for possession of marijuana...perhaps the headline should read, "How STUPID CAN YOU BE?" According to the Celebrity Stoner, Jo Jo (who's father co-founded Run DMC)was rolling a blunt in his BMW...snip...give us a break there Jo Jo, you are making all of us look bad with that kind of, "I am ABOVE THE LAW" egotistical stupidity. You think with your father and your uncle that you can just sit in your car, out in public rolling blunts and not have it catch up to you?

I am all for legalization of marijuana, both medical and casual use, but I also feel we need to be smart in how we exercise our use of marijuana as long as it remains an illegal substance that can find us on the wrong side of the long arm of the law. Then when caught YOU RAN?...maybe you need to change your name to Dork Dork.

Joseph "Run" Simmons' son Jojo was busted for marijuana possession and resisting arrest on May 7. Caught rolling a joint or blunt in his BMW at 7:30 pm on Wadsworth Ave. in New York's Washington Heights section, the 19-year-old co-star of Run's House on MTV allegedly bolted from the car and fled. When police caught up to him, he got into a altercation with them. JoJo's father co-founded Run-D.M.C.. His uncle is hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons.

Then we have this update from another article...

The teen - who was behind the wheel of a BMW on Wadsworth Avenue when cops
approached - slammed his car in reverse and smashed into vehicles parked behind
him, police said.

He then took off on foot, cops said.

But JoJo - who heads his own rap group called Team Blackout - didn't run fast enough. Police said that when they caught up with him, he started throwing punches. (Where is assault on a police officer?)

He was arrested and charged with reckless endangerment, resisting arrest, marijuana possession and criminal use of drug paraphernalia.

See what happens when you have RICH INFLUENTIAL RELATIVES? This BUTT TERD makes us all look bad, smashes up a car, makes a run for it, throws punches at officers and has the judge basically give him a free pass on the most serious charge of reckless endangerment which is a felony...this kid needs to spend some time in prison as someone's bitch...sorry, but as a Stoner I cannot condone what he did, nor can I condone the judge dropping the felony charge because he's the child of a famous person.

Just a Couple of Friday Hemp Factoids

The Cannabis Community is all abuzz as we approach April 20th (4/20) and the various and assorted planned activities around that day. Myself...I am leery as I watch the American News media beating a rather ugly sounding anti Marijuana Drum since Barack Obama took office...I see it as a "Custer's Last Stand" on the part of the DEA who does not want to lose what has been a very profitable enforcement run for them...as example, legalization of Medical Marijuana would see enforcement issues and inspection handed over to the FDA, and Industrialized Hemp oversight would probably go to the USDA. The just say no message is being tweaked and amped up, and we have some heavy hitters (Hillary Clinton, Janet Napolitano, Eric Holder) in the Obama administration blaming the Mexican Drug War on American Pot Smokers.

Some Factoids (Hemptoids)

1. At least 2/3's of American Marijuana Consumption (both legal and illegal) is grown right here in America, and we could easily grow 100 percent of our consumption if Cannabis and Hemp were legalized.

2. The Drug Cartel's and their war is not really about Marijuana, but instead is about Heroin and Cocaine and the routes needed to get their products into America.

On 420, have fun, CELEBRATE OUR DAY, but I would ask each and every one of my fellow Budsters out there in 420 land to remember the goal of Legalization, and consider signing up to do some volunteer work for the cause. We need state and city bloggers ourselves. ASA (Americans for Safe Access) and NORML probably have lots of volunteer work waiting for a set of hands that wants to pitch in.

We cannot realize our dream without every Cannabis Friendly American doing their part for the cause, and while we are on the subject, lets not forget that our friends in Canada are dealing with many of the same issues and harrassments we ourselves face.
