Montel Will Puff, Puff, Pass

Late this past year, Willie Nelson got caught smokin’ the ganja on his tour bus, and now it looks like Montel Williams is the latest star with reefer madness. He was busted in Milwaukee on Tuesday at an airport by TSA officials when they found drug paraphernalia. That paraphernalia turned out to be a marijuana pipe in his carry-on luggage. Of course, Montel is no stranger to getting caught with the sticky-icky; he’s gotten busted in the past
and had to pay fines as well. This time the fine came in the form of $484, which is probably chump change to the man who sells pressure cookers on late-night infomercials, right? At least he was smart enough to clean it out, because officials found no residue in the pipe, which could have been another fine altogether. He’s also an advocate for the use of medical marijuana, due to his diagnosis of MS back in 1999. At any rate, Williams paid the fine and was on his way. According to a couple of cannabis forums, it’s legal to bring a medical marijuana pipe on a plane as long as it’s completely clean, but obviously not – and what do they know, they’re probably all high anyway. But if they’re right, somebody tell this guy to get a card already.
