What was the OFFICIAL charge they got him for? It's not illegal to sell bongs, right?

[affasd]

conspiracy to distribute drug paraphenialia i think

[420marijuana420]

so how could they prove it was drug paraphonaliia(sp) I never really understood the case

Tommy Chong goes to jail (http://cannabisculture.com/articles/3264.html)

here it is.

[The Colonel]

"Chong's bust was part of a larger anti-bong police effort called Operation Pipe Dreams"

thats the funniest thing i have ever read

[mattks1]

yea, the way he esplained it was that someone had tried to get his company to ship a bong to a state where it was illegal. the sell was declined and then he said an employee was planted at his business to actually let an illegal sell go through so he would get busted. he got framed basically

well............ that's kinda shitty

[Pipe Dreams]

pipe dreams lol

Anyways, because he called them "bongs" that made them drug paraphanila. You never been to a headshop? You cant call pieces in there bongs or any of that other shit.

Water pipes is the word ya heard?
