What is so bad about pot other than it is not legal? If I twist (LOL) your view a little anyone that has a drink of any type should go to court for it. Alcohol does about the same as pot for most with the addition of blackouts if used in excess. I have never understood this law and never will. Why can weed not be treated the same as alcohol? Pot could be legal for adults with the same restrictions as the laws in place to govern alcohol consumption with a huge positve impact on the economy. Anything the body doesn't need can be somewhat considered a drug and impact the body in a negative way. I am getting off of topic here. Phelps is an adult and has he really hurt anyone other than himself by this? No, I don't think so. Life is about choices and even our children have to make choices everyday. We have to stop blaming sports figures for the problems of our children. We are the ones that need to provide our children with appropriate information. Sports figures are no different than you or me. We may not be looked at in the same way by so many. Children should never use drugs or alcohol!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man made drugs scare me more.

I see what your saying but pot is not legal and Drinking is. But the only rean the gov. won't allow pot is because its home grown and they cant get any money from it, same as moonshine.

But back to the subject should the police let him go because he is a superstar. Dont say people all the time is somoking pot, i know that, and its hard to find out who the person ( are if thier just a regular person) is just by a picture. But they know it was Phelps in the pic. and photographer told where it he smoked it at.... But was it pot he was smokin we dont know, thats why we have a court system to find out...
