Anyways, I don't feel like looking it up right now but I know I can't have a bong where I live. Maybe it's the community, or maybe it's the state. Just do a google search for yourself really.
Still, paraphernalia bans do raise serious definitional issues. “Anything can have a dual use,” notes New Orleans defense attorney Bill Rittenberg. “There’s nothing that can be used as a smoking or snuff accessory for tobacco that can’t be used for marijuana.” While a giant plastic bong may seem like an obvious example of drug paraphernalia, people do use other sorts of water pipes, as well as dry pipes made from materials other than the conventional briar, meerschaum, or corncob, to smoke tobacco. Buchanan maintains that an item listed in the federal ban is illegal “regardless of what you do with it, regardless of whether some idiot actually goes and puts tobacco in it.” But that interpretation would make hookahs—water pipes traditionally used to smoke sweet, fruity tobacco mixtures—illegal. Even Buchanan concedes that rolling papers, which can be used to make cigarettes as well as joints, are not necessarily drug paraphernalia. The targets of Operation Pipe Dreams did not include any convenience stores that sold rolling papers, even though many of those end up wrapped around marijuana. Likewise, vaporizers, which are not listed in the federal ban, can be used with marijuana or with legal medicinal herbs (not to mention the fact that in California and 12 other states marijuana is a legal medicinal herb).
Law enforcement officials themselves can have trouble telling the difference between legitimate smoking accessories and illegal drug paraphernalia, as illustrated by the travails of the Smoke Signals Pipe and Tobacco Shop in Dover, New Hampshire. Police first raided the store in October 2001, seizing various items they identified as drug paraphernalia. The store’s manager, Susan Hargrove, ultimately pleaded guilty to a single charge of selling drug paraphernalia, resulting in a suspended $1,000 fine. As part of the plea agreement, the government returned most of the seized merchandise, including glass pipes, a glass chillum, various water pipes, and metal one-hitters (small, narrow pipes), saying they were OK to sell.
I know. I'm the OP remember?Mike, the issue is not the legality of his action but how it will effect his endorsements. If he were a rock star\rapper it would be different. I think whoever released the image was a creep who must have sold the image, but that is the chance he took.
are you serious? He's smoking weed. How naive can you be?
you need to get laid too.
I have a problem with someone telling someone to get laid, with a my little pony in their avatar. Stop it or change the avatar pic.
That is all.

What a fucking pile of puke. He doesn't owe it to the public to be a perfect human being.
Well the only thing is that he endorses "speedo" brand and they have a motto of healthy living... doing drugs isn't healthy living to society now is it?
you can smoke tabacoo in a bong
and as if that has ever solved any problems anyway.:shrug:
Right. It's important that we not let people use drugs, otherwise they will turn out to be losers. Despite all evidence to the contrary.He should be stripped of all his medals, because he is a drug user and using drugs in sports is illegal.
