Pizza Hut manager sells weed from drive-through window
FORT SMITH, Ark. -- Police have arrested a pizza parlor manager on charges alleging he sold marijuana out of his drive-through window in Fort Smith, Ark.
Authorities said Monday that state and local investigators acting on a tip went to the Pizza Hut restaurant and found six ounces of marijuana and a set of digital scales in the manager's office.
Police said they arrested 28-year-old manager Aaron Massey on Friday on a charge of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.
Massey has been released on $3,500 bail.

'Stoners'?
People who smoke aren't stupid as you may like to believe. I've got no problem with the sale of weed.
I can't really see the point of this.

Yes, stoners. People who smoke weed. Nowhere did I say they were stupid. Some of my friends smoke, and they're some of the smartest people I know. There isn't a point, it's just an interesting article.

People are dumb, real smart to do it so publicly where you will get caught.
Most losers out there who smoke weed always have bullcrap excuses for the reason why they do it in the first place. Fact is the reason it's never been legalized in the states is because the negatives of THC far out weigh the benefits.
Chances are he'll get probation and nothing more. Pretty sad.
And as for someone who also lives in Las Vegas, I have to hear ridiculous reasons for people doing stupid things. But ignorant people can never admit they're wrong. Talk about humble, aye?

Right. Now, smokers can have stupid REASONS for doing it, and most just make up excuses so that they can try and justify why they are in the first place.

And that isn't implying that they are stupid, or lacking in intelligence?

It's bad for your health, so is tobacco and alcohol. The reason it isn't legal is because it's perceived as this nasty bad thing, which it isn't. So it's highly unlikely that it will be legalised because politicians don't want to lose votes.
Also it's normally the people who don't smoke that are the losers, but I supposed that's their prerogative.

You're just passing it off because the simple fact other things are bad for you too? Well there is a big difference. Cigarettes and Alcohol do not contain hallucinogenic substances that destroy brain cells. Now it is proven that cigarettes and alcohol CAN cause liver, lung, and pancreatic cancers.
But cannabis has been proven not to only destroy brain cells, decrease memory, decrease motor skills, and cause lung and pancreatic cancers. THC is the chemical in cannabis that causes the euphoric sensations you feel when smoking it. Most people don't know this but cannabis leaves tend to differ in levels of THC. Low levels of THC can not make you high, but are enough to cause pain tolerant type euphorias.
As for high levels of THC, it kills brain cells, causing them to misfire and you can not heal brain cells or gain them back. Not only aside that but the chemicals most druggies put into cannabis to further strengthen its "high", are extremely toxic to the body, most find in embalming fluids.
You can pass off like "Well people drink and smoke cigarettes and they're fine, so I'll be fine." Facts are cigarettes do not always cause people to get cancer, and alcohol doesn't always give you liver dieases. But THC DOES kill brain cells, and has the same effects to the lungs, cigarettes do. So not only are you killing your lungs, you are killing your brain.
Facts are facts, and THC is not healthy for the human body.

I've never said cannabis or THC weren't bad for the body. I was pointing out that alcohol and cigarettes also have negative externalities and no positive ones.
I drink and I smoke and I'm in good health. To me the benefits of smoking and drinking are worth the damage they are doing to me. If they weren't I wouldn't be doing them.
Considering that we all die, it doesn't bother me.

Well that's a life choice, but the fact is you can't be healthy from smoking and drinking lol. It's just not possible. Your body is just as frail as every other humans. I'm not bashing ya or anything, what you do is your own business. But if I had a kid and someone came up to him saying "Oh I smoke and drink, and I'm just fine!" I would go ape shit.
Facts are facts, and you are not as in good health as you would like to believe. If you wanna die young, so be it. But please try to realize some people may interpret your habits in the way you speak of them as being, healthy, which they aren't lol.
I hope you stay well and everything mate, but facts are facts you everytime you smoke and drink you increase your heart disease risks and cancer risks. And believe me you say you're fine with it now while you're well. But when faced with the problems when they come around, you tend to regret doing these things in the first place.
But hey, if it makes you happy, good, but please don't pass off your habits as being "good" or "not unhealthy", they really are extremely dangerous for your health.
