Arnold Schwarzenegger Says Marijuana is Not a Drug

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 20:39:57 +0000

In a GQ interview Arnold Schwarzenegger was asked about video in a 1970s documentary, Pumping Iron, showing him smoking a joint, if he had ever taken drugs. Arnold responded:

"That is not a drug. It’s a leaf," he told the magazine. He added: "My drug was pumping iron, trust me."

Later, the governor’s spokesman, Aaron McLear, later told the Associated Press that the comments had been taken out of context. He added that Arnold had been speaking in a light-hearted way. Aaron said while dabbing beads of sweat from his forehead:

"Of course the governor understands marijuana is a drug."

Arnold also said in the upcoming December issue of GQ interview:

"What would you rather have? A politician taking stuff and not saying, but making the best decisions and improving things, or a politician who names all the drugs he or she has taken but makes lousy decisions for the country?" A politician’s job is to do what’s best for the people and to improve the country, the economy, the environment. Why should I care if a politician takes sleeping pills every night so long as he can do his job?"

In other words, Arnold understands that politicians are people just like the rest of us, who are expected, and supposed to, make decisions in the best interest of those depending on him or her. Of course, a politician who is high all the time might not be in the best position to make the best decisions even for his or herself. And then there are those addicted to oral sex and blue dresses.

Michael Vick Caught Getting High

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 26 Sep 2007 18:20:27 +0000

Michael Vick tested positive for marijuana on September 13, so the judge ordered more drug testing, and now Vick can’t leave his house from 10 P.M. to 6 A.M. He’s been grounded by his daddy. Back in January 2007 Vick was stopped at an airport because a secret compartment in his fake water bottle smelled like marijuana. Charges at that time were dropped. I defended his innocence at the time. Vick proved me wrong. He will be sentenced on December 10, and is facing up to five years in prison for torturing and killing innocent dogs, plus he could be facing more charges despite a plea deal and confession. It’s understandable he’d want to get high to relax, but that’s not allowed, otherwise it wouldn’t be punishment. Vick is so nervous he can smell his nuts roasting.

Michael Vick Found God

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 27 Aug 2007 19:16:38 +0000

A heavily coached Michael Vick did what anyone looking for a comeback would do, he apologized for making poor decisions, and says he found God. Today Vick became a felon:

Vick wasn’t specific about the acts he was sorry for, but declared, â€œDogfighting is a terrible thing. I reject it.â€ Between apologies to everyone from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell to Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank – to all the kids who used to look up to him, Vick declared that he’s found Jesus and has turned his life over to God. â€œI was ashamed and totally disappointed in myself, to say the least. I want to apologize to all the young kids out there for my immature acts. What I did was very immature, so that means I need to grow up. I totally ask for forgiveness and understanding as I move forward to be a better Michael Vick the person, not the football player.â€

Michael Vick’s father and grandfather publicly denounced his behavior, plus everyone turned against him, so he had no other choice but to finally admit he lied to everyone about being innocent. He did not apologize however to the dogs who he brutally tortured and murdered for his own sick gratification. Fox news had a round table of experts analyzing his demeanor, and they agreed his apology did not contain any "feeling," which they said is typical of someone with the type of mental illness of someone who is capable of cruel and inhuman crimes like torture and murder.

The Atlanta Falcons said they’re keeping him on the team. They announced in a statement: "We cannot tell you today that Michael is cut from the team. It may feel better emotionally, but it’s not in the long term best interest of our franchise." The team intends to pursue the $22 million in bonus money that he already received in a $130 million contract signed in 2004.

The Falcon’s owner became aware that Vick was trouble when, in early 2004, two men were arrested in Virginia for distributing marijuana. The truck they were driving was registered to Michael Vick. The Falcons coach Dan Reeves recalled that he lectured Vick at that time on the importance of reputation, on choosing the right friends, on staying out of trouble for the good of his team. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution quoted Reeves as having told Vick: "You are an Atlanta Falcon…Whatever you do is going to be a reflection on all of us, not just you."

January 17, 2007 Vick surrendered a water bottle which had a hidden compartment to security personnel at Miami International Airport. "The compartment was hidden by the bottle’s label so that it appeared to be a full bottle of water when held upright," police said. Test results indicated there were no illegal substances in the water bottle and Vick was cleared of any wrongdoing. Vick announced that the water bottle was a jewelry stash box, and that the substance in question had been jewelry.

It’s popular today to try to say Vick’s criminal behavior has nothing to do with the report released this month showing blacks committed more than 49% of all murders in the United States, despite making up only 13% of the population. To even point out that statistical fact, or to draw a comparison to Vick’s crime would cause most brain washed people to say that is racism. It’s okay though to get really upset and riot because white cops subdue a black murderer in order to lock him up, because although white crime against blacks barely even registers on the total crime statistics, it’s still a HUGE issue amongst blacks. In 2005 93% of the blacks who were murdered were killed by other blacks, but that is never discussed because blacks don’t want to talk about it because they say that would be racist. I suppose teenagers don’t want to discuss acne either, even though all teenagers have it, and talking about it shows a person’s hatred of teenagers, and love for racism. I am not racist, but seeing those alarming statistics about blacks makes me feel uncomfortable, especially since leaders won’t admit that black crime in America is completely out-of-control despite fact based statistics. Some people might be willing to close their eyes to reality to avoid being called a racist, but I am not willing to be the next ignorant victim. Every time I see black celebrities committing crimes in the news, you can count on HG to report it. We want to do the right thing, and see innocent Americans live free from fear.

HG wants black leaders, and non-black leaders, to publicly admit black crime is out-of-control and begin addressing the problem. When black crime statistics falls to a level equal to other races in America we will be satisfied the problem has been addressed. The department of justice did not even release the full report that showed the total number of crimes committed by each race, including blacks. This appears to be an effort to coverup the severity of the black crime epidemic to avoid racism claims.

All Americans pay for law enforcement to fight crime, to house criminals in prison, and for the courts to process accused criminals. Why should the majority of America continue to foot the bill for the minority of black Americans committing the majority of crimes in America? We support any and all efforts to reduce all crime, with a focus on those areas, or even races, where the majority of crimes occur. There is no excuse for allowing innocent people to live in fear, or to become victims, just to avoid the label of racist. Fighting crime is the right thing to do to protect law abiding citizens.

In the years to come our society will begin to address this issue, and right now our position may not be understood by many people. Someone has to start talking about it publicly so that leaders will begin to address this problem. Those people who live in areas where black crime is a big problem will appreciate our efforts. Those people who have never experienced living in an area where black crime is a problem won’t understand the issue until news reports on television start running stories on this problem. Crime is crime. Just like terrorism is terrorism. When one race is committing the majority of crimes against other Americans, the problem needs to be addressed to protect the innocent.

Thanks for reading.

For those blacks that want to make everything into racism…the Department of Justice on 8-9-2007 released a report that said:

Black Americans accounted for 13 percent of the U.S. population in 2005â€¦but were the victims ofâ€¦49 percent of all homicides. Among single victim-single offender homicides, about 93 percent of black victims were murdered by black offenders.

Rumer Willis Involved in Drug Bust

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 27 Jul 2007 17:37:04 +0000

Rumer Willis, 18-year-old daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, was caught in the middle of a drug arrest.

"Access Hollywood" reports that Rumer was in a Maryland hotel room where police busted a man for marijuana possession after hotel guests complained about noise. Willis was one of four people in the room. She was not arrested, nor was she being investigated.

Rumer’s in Maryland making an indie film called "From Within."

Just last month, Bruce Willis told People magazine that he and Demi talked to their kids about drugs, saying, "We have an ongoing conversation. They have the gene, and we warn them: ’You have a predisposition to be an alcoholic.’ It’s on her side of the family and mine. It’s something to be aware of. My kids are strongly anti-drug."

Rumer doesn’t seem like the pot smoking type, but she also doesn’t seem like the type to put a condom in her mouth. She does want attention, so anything could happen.

Nicole Richie is Going to Jail

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 27 Jul 2007 16:33:02 +0000

Nicole Richie will appear in court this morning and plead either guilty or no contest to driving under the influence. Richie was cited at 4:30am on December 11th when sheriffs deputies approached her car after several 911 calls reported Richie driving the wrong way down the Burbank Freeway. Richie was parked in the carpool lane and talking on her cell phone when they found her. When questioned, she admitted she was high on vicodin and had been smoking marijuana. This was not her first DUI. In 2002, she was arrested for driving 50 miler per hour in a 15 mph zone near UCLA. She had a .13 blood alcohol level, almost twice the legal limit. Six months later, she was convicted for possession of heroin and driving on a suspended license. About today’s court proceeding, TMZ says:

Richie will plead either guilty or no contest to DUI. She will appear before the Court Commissioner, who will sentence her on the spot. Sources say Richie will receive a minimum sentence of five days in jail. By law, anyone with two DUI convictions must serve at least five days. This conviction will be Nicole’s second DUI.

Put Richie in a red dress, and let her try to out run a bull for five days in a row, then maybe she’d understand how a victim of a DUI driver feels.

Say It Ain’t So – Paris Hilton Lies?

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 26 Jul 2007 23:17:36 +0000

Liar Liar, Paris’s pants are on fire, and not just from a scorching case of herpes.Â After telling Larry King that she’d never even done drugs, Us Magazine is reporting that she openly smoked marijuana with Cisco Adler while out singing karaoke the other night.

The pair arrived at nearly 1 a.m. with two other girls. In skinny jeans, a black tank and a sequined top, Hilton didn’t get her own cocktail, but she stole sips from Adler’s vodka tonics throughout the night. Later, the burgeoning popstar sang "Bette Davis Eyes" in honor of a friend’s birthday, and stayed onstage for an unexpected encore when the DJ started playing her single, "The Stars are Blind." Musician Adler performed "Brown Eyed Girl," and then left the stage for Hilton’s side.

The duo, who Usmagazine.com sources witnessed making out more than once, were perhaps feeling loose and lovey due to the marijuana they were openly smoking at the club. As the 4 Non Blondes song "What’s Up" played in the background, Hilton sang along, replacing the chorus’ "what’s going on" lyric with "let’s smoke a bowl!"

I’m hoping for her sake that she had "bowl goggles," as Cisco looks like he could be the love child of Schneider from "One Day at a Time" and Carrot Top.

Ja Rule, Lil Wayne arrested In New York

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 23 Jul 2007 16:04:31 +0000

Rappers JaRule and Lil Wayne were charged Sunday night for criminal gun possession in separate incident, police said.

Lil Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Carter; and Ja Rule whose real name is Jeff Atkins was in Manhattanâ€”Carter performed at his concert at the Beacon Theatre shortly after being spotted smoking marijuana and carrying a 40-caliber pistol, authories said.

An hour earlier, Atkins was stopped for speeding and the police also found a 40-caliber pistol. It was unclear if Atkins performed at the theatre that night.

â€˜Uh-Ohâ€™ is the name of the new song by the rappers.

What a perfect title song for the two and on the top of that get arrested on the same night.

Classy Paris Hilton Spotted Smoking Weed

Hollywood Grind — Tue, 10 Jul 2007 13:13:29 +0000

It’s almost not even fun any more, this documenting of the amazing and inspiring transformation of Paris Hilton from cavorting as a typical Hollywood girl-gone-wild to making a difference as an altruistic, party-eschewing, drug-avoider. Yup. No fun.

Guess being the new-and-improved Paris isn’t fun for her either. Page Six has the cannabis dirt:

Although she told Larry King she’d never done drugs, the newly spiritual heirhead emerged from an SUV in front of Hollywood club Teddy’s the other night in what witnesses describe as a cloud of marijuana smoke. "She took a huge puff off of a joint, then opened the door and exhaled the pot smoke basically in my face," one clubgoer told us. At least she wasn’t driving. Hilton’s camp didn’t get back to us.

What a lady. And we thought the shots of Patron were something. Gone are the relatively peaceful Hawaii days, where she tried to keep her nightlife under cover.

Aloha.

Former Playboy Playmate Arrested For DUI

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 05:22:56 +0000

Miss April 1989 was arrested over the weekend on an alleged DUI. Oberlin, Ohio police pulled over Jennifer Lyn Jackson and found beer bottles, marijuana, and rolling papers in her car.Â

The former bunny managed to blow .077 on the breathalyzer, just sneaking under the state’s .08 limit. That’s like passing with a D minus grade. Not great, but passing nonetheless.

Jackson is pleading not guilty and will appear in court next week. You think Heff will still hire some good lawyers for her?

Al Gore’s Son Busted On Drug Charges

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 04 Jul 2007 19:52:10 +0000

Al Gore III has been in trouble many times before. Is this a bad parenting issue?

- In 1996, he was suspended from his high school for smoking marijuana.
- In August 2000, he was ticketed for reckless driving by North Carolina police for driving 94 mph.
- In September 2002, military police arrested him on suspicion of drunk driving near a military base in Virginia.
- In 2003, he was charged with marijuana possession in Maryland after police stopped the car he was driving for not having its headlights on.
- In February 2004, he entered a substance abuse program as part of a plea agreement.

Here’s more:

Al Gore’s son was pulled over for speeding on a California freeway early Wednesday and arrested on suspicion of possessing marijuana and prescription drugs, authorities said.

Al Gore III, 24, was driving a blue Toyota Prius about 100 mph south on the San Diego Freeway when he was pulled over by sheriff’s deputies who said they smelled marijuana, said Sheriff’s Department spokesman Jim Amormino.

The deputies searched the car and found less than an ounce of marijuana along with Xanax, Valium, Vicodin, and Adderall, which is used for attention deficit disorder, Amormino said.

"He does not have a prescription for any of those drugs," Amormino said.

Gore was being held in the men’s central jail in Santa Ana on $20,000 bail.
