LOCAL POTHEADS PUT DOWN FRITOS, PICK UP A CAUSE
The Lafayette City Council recently withdrew their bid to increase
local penalties for marijuana possession from a $100 fine and no jail
time to a $1,000 fine and up to one year in the clink. After coming
up against strong opposition from numerous political organizations,
local judges and citizens, the council announced, "City staff and
City Council have determined that more information and analysis are
needed on this matter."
Translation: "We just got our asses kicked by a bunch of goddamn stoners."
