Bob Marley T-shirt incident sparks human rights complaint

Posted by Papa Roach On August - 24 - 2010

WOW….I couldn’t believe when i read this piece of news recently … read on

A man plans to file a human-rights complaint against an amusement park after security guards told him to cover up his Bob Marley T-shirt or leave the premises. But Montreal’s La Ronde insists it didn’t have a problem with the shirt’s portrait of the late reggae legend — just the cluster of green, marijuana-shaped leaves that surround it. He says security staff singled him out because they associated a black man wearing a Marley shirt with something criminal.

“The onus is on Six Flags to explain to me, the Marley family, fans of Bob Marley around the world, how this T-shirt is deemed ‘inappropriate’ to ordinary families,” Moise said in a statement. But a spokesman for La Ronde indicates that only the pictures of pot leaves on the shirt were considered offensive under the Six Flags’ corporate-wide dress code. “It’s not the image of Bob Marley that’s in question here,” Martin Roy said Wednesday. “It’s the dozens of marijuana leaves on the shirt that were judged by the employees as not family friendly.”

Paris Hilton arrested @ World Cup for Marijuana

Posted by Papa Roach On July - 3 - 2010

Poor Paris Hilton … the heiress accustomed to the handcuffs by now thanks to her DUI’s in America can’t even catch a break in crime ridden South Africa. Apparently Paris and her friend, former Playmate of the Year Jennifer Rovero were outside the Nelson Mandela Bay stadium following the Brazil-Netherlands qarterfinal game when local cops smelled marijuana. Upon approaching Paris & Jennifer, it is alleged that a spliff was suspiciously dropped to the ground[smart thinking!!!] but they were taken into custody nonetheless. Paris Hilton is a celebrity and a legitimate heiress so naturally er charges were dropped after her friend Jennifer took the blame upon which the World Cup Special Court ordered Jennifer to pay $130 an leave South AFrica in 14 days. Well the Final’s are in a week so she’s good loll.

I really cannot think of anything creative to go along with these amazing high pics of the simpsons… But my fav character has to be Barney Gumble. He kinda reminds me of a friend I got who used to be big and a useless drunk until he got his pilots license like Barney. So now I end this not high-larious post with some pics of some high simpson characters!

Alligator Shoes

Posted by Papa Roach On May - 20 - 2010

A young blonde woman was driving through the Florida Everglades while on vacation. She wanted to take home a pair of genuine alligator shoes but was very reluctant to pay the high prices the local vendors were asking.
After becoming very frustrated with the attitude of one of the shopkeepers, the young Blonde declared, “Well then, maybe I’ll just go out and catch my own alligator and get a pair of shoes for free!”
The shopkeeper said with a sly smile, “Well little lady, why don’t you go on and give it a try?”
The blonde headed off to the swamp, determined to catch an alligator.

Later in the day, as the shopkeeper is driving home, he spots the same young woman standing waist deep in the murky water, shotgun in hand.
As he brings his car to a stop, he sees a huge 9-foot gator swimming rapidly toward her.
With lightning reflexes, the Blonde takes aim, shoots the creature and hauls it up onto the slippery bank.
Nearby were 7 more dead gators, all lying belly up.
The shopkeeper stood on the bank, watching in silent amazement.
The blonde struggles mightily and manages to flip the gator onto its back.
Rolling her eyes heavenward, she screams in frustration,

“DAMN IT this one is barefoot too!!

Man falls from Tree during Pot Rally

Posted by Papa Roach On May - 4 - 2010

You couldn’t make this up even if you wanted to … This happened in Toronto, Canada during the Pot Rally. A participant at the rally decided it would be a great idea to climb a tree an partake in the pot rally .. perhaps cos he wanted a high(er) vision but things took a turn for the worse when mother nature decided to unleash gale force winds upon the rally. Winds gusting at about 30-50 km/hr wreaked havoc an the poor chap at the top of the tree became stuck an struggled to get down. He eventually fell down an was injured upon which the good folks of Toronto EMS took him to a nearby hospital. Moral of the story: if you wish to get high just smoke a spliff an you’ll get there …

The Special One

Posted by Papa Roach On April - 22 - 2010

The self-anointed “Special One” a.k.a. Jose Mourinho, currently of Inter Milan is taking his team to the pinnacle of club futbol success once again. Inter Milan are the clear favorites to advance to the Finals of the Champions League after humbling current holders Barcelona 3-1 in the first leg. I have always stated that should Inter Milan go on to win this tie over Barcelona, then it has to be credited to Jose MOurinho and his tactics. Players just seem to listen to him, except perhaps Mario Balotelli, the volatile forward who threw his jersey in disgust after the final whistle an who was later attacked in the tunnel by his own teammate Marco Materazzi. Yes the same Materazzi who is forever posterized as the victim of Zinedine Zidane’s head-butt during the World Cup Finals, wow what a small world. Well the second leg is to be played in Camp Nou, the majestical Barcelona stadium that holds 98,000 people. Knowing Jose MOurinho, he will opt to go with a three man attacking line in a 4-3-3 formation with Wesley Sneijder pulling the strings in the heart of the midfield that will keep Barcelona on edge throughout becuase they not only have to claw back the deficit but also ensure that Intre do not score.

In the other semi final featuring German Engineering i.e. Bayern Munich an French Club Olympic Lyonnais …. Bayern take a 1-0 lead to France an hope to progress through …. This game was a timid affair until Bayern went a man down as their star player Franck Ribery saw red within 35 minutes. However the game evened out as Lyon then saw their own player sent off for two yellow card offences. The game opened up then and Bayern took the lead with a superb Arjen Robben goal who now has scored in every round of the Champion league. Some might even call him the “Flying Dutchman”. Personaly I’d like to see Inter Milan and Bayern Munich in the finals on May 22. Jose Mourinho’s technicality Vs. swift German engineering …. you can’t go wrong although I hope UEFA allows Franck Ribery to play in the finals cause it stands right now he is not allowed to play following the straight red that he received.

UK, Spain close to approving Cannabis Drug

Posted by Papa Roach On March - 24 - 2010

A pioneering — but much delayed — cannabis-based medicine for multiple sclerosis is now on track to win regulatory approval in Britain and Spain in the second quarter of 2010, its maker said on Thursday. GW Pharmaceuticals said regulators in both countries had concluded there were no major quality, safety or efficacy issues remaining to be resolved. Talks are now focused on points of clarification related to the patient information leaflet.

Clinical trials have shown GW’s drug Sativex reduces spasticity in multiple sclerosis patients who do not respond adequately to existing therapies. It became the world’s first cannabis medicine to win regulatory approval when it was approved in Canada in 2005. GW had originally hoped to win approval in 2003 for its drug — which is extracted from marijuana plants grown at secret locations in the English countryside — but the medicine has been hit by a string of regulatory delays in Europe.

Further clinical trials need to be completed before the medicine is ready for submission for approval in the United States, where GW’s partner is Otsuka of Japan.

Canada’s Drug Capital

Posted by Papa Roach On March - 23 - 2010

So everyone thinks that British Columbia on the west coast is drug capital of Canada cause of the amount of marijuana they produce each year but that my fellow readers is the greatest misconception. It is in fact British Columbia’s neighbor Alberta that is the drug capital of the world. Alberta has been in the news lately due to the violence that’s been escalating slowly in the province that’s directly related to drug trade.

Drug trafficking is dangerous anywhere but in Alberta, Canada’s most prosperous province, it has become increasingly more perilous. In Alberta, the drug business is worth over $5 billion annually and is controlled by well-established gangs such as Hells Angels, native gangs and Asian triads. $5 billion!!!!!!!! That’s the annual GDP of some countries alone. Apparently the Somalis, made famous by the pirates an the singer k’naan are entering the lucrative drug trade an which has triggered a fierce turf war that’s resulted in 29 Somalis being shot to death execution style in Alberta.

Police there say that it’s just the tip of the iceberg as more an more people enter the drug trade with it’s lure of easy money. According to some estimates, a drug dealer peddling ecstacy pills can rake in almost $10,000 on a good night but the perils are also high as more an more dealers are finding themselves fending for their lifes an just struggling to stay alive on a nightly basis.
