LOL!!

Cereal bowl???......I'm pretty sure somebody just eyeballed that one.

Wake up the weed is already here and money is leaving the state with the Lotto. You don’t have to play or participate. Sit on the sidelines just like me.

almost looks like a Mo wig from the 3 stooges. I can’t say much on hair cuts do my own with clippers and I’m sure it’s not straight at times lol

neither will happen.... They will fund the general fund with privatization of liquor before the lottery passes. And then you can say goodbye to the lottery from now on.

Weed in this state..........Ha!

Cook doesn't sing with the band very often now, he isn't physically able. He has had Parkinson's disease for several years. I understand the weed helps offset some of the symptoms & enables a better quality of live.

you could really see his addiction by his songs: dixieland delight, Feels so right, If your gonna roll a blunt in Texas, roll on, and My homegrowns in Alabama.

That is bulldoodoo. I've smoked more weed back in the day than you can even imagine. Weed definitely affects your motor function and your decision making process.

I agree with TesasHuntress... We need to figure out a standard for driving under the influence.

It wasn't Cook that got busted.

Let’s take a swath of habitually dangerous drivers. Like street racers, or the crotch rocket drivers with loud exhausts.

Of the street racers and crotch rocket drivers, what percentage would you think said marijuana was their drug of choice?

This weed today ain't the same thing y'all smoked back in the 70's and 80's.

Compared to the 70’s and 80’s, what uptick have you noticed of people getting stoned and stealing catalytic converters?

I won't search it out to buy but if I am two Tito's in and someone offers a few hits, I would be all over it, I am 59 and I can assure you where those hits were taken is where I would be sleeping that night or afternoon!

2nd Degree. No big deal. He can make this go away with a little diversion program and/or community service with the right donations and i'm not necessarily talking about payoffs to judges or DAs. Legit community service, donations and a day or two in a drug awareness program and he'll get it dropped or he can just pay a fine. The problem with just paying the fine though is the next one becomes a felony in Alabama if he already has one on his record. Smart move is to keep it off his record with the diversion program.

It ain’t gonna go away. It’ll still show up that he went to diversion and got it dismissed. It may keep him from serving time for it, but it’ll still show up as an arrest on public records. And the next time he gets pulled over, I’m sure the officer will see he was arrested for it.

But he went to diversion, so that should remove any suspicion from his mind.

An arrest and a conviction are two different things. If he ever fills out a job application for instance and it says have you ever been arrested he would have to answer yes, but then it will ask for the disposition and he would answer "Dismissed". Same thing with another weed arrest. If he is convicted of this one the next one is 1st Degree and is a felony. The only other way it is a felony is if it is such an amount that it is considered trafficking. The successful completion of a diversion program means there is no conviction. The key words are convicted of a previous weed arrest, not having been arrested before. I'm sure other than some embarrassment, this is no big deal to him. Just like Willie Nelson, I imagine no one is worried about it. LE has enough to worry about with Fentanyl and Meth in that area to get too bent out of shape over this.

Well Crap!, I had my keyboard rocking without my brain in gear. Sorry about that.

When you're 70 years old I'm sure it offsets a lot of things.

What prick cop thought that this was the right thing to do? Officer discretion…

Don't know the circumstances so I won't question the use of discretion yet. Believe me, sometimes people put an officer in a situation they don't want to do it but aren't really given a choice with all the liability they face these days.
