Very foolish thing to do on his part.
However, marijuana should just be legalized so cops don't waste their time busting fools like this over something like pot...jeez.
Shades of the prohibition years....busting people for having a keg of beer at a party, or having a drink at a bar or nightclub (speakeasy)...hard to believe it ever happened in this country....someday we'll look back at pot prohibition the same way.

Boy Arizona cops are really making our streets safer - not. Between scanning Craigs List for MJ trades and deporting Mexicans, do they have any time left for, you know, the things we pay them for: preventing robberies and the like?
