um Jen, and yet you are reading this blog. I suggest you might want to try economist.com, nytimes.com, iht.com, timesonline.co.uk to start as all are excellent sites. Furthermore, swimming in a pool is not exactly solving the worlds woes and problems.

do people really have nothing better to do? phelps has already accomplished so much more than some will in a lifetime. yes he made a bad decision -considering he is a public figure- but he stepped up and took the consequences like a man. last week some 13 year old boy became a father, your kid or sibiling may be taking a couple of hits from a bong while you read this and obsess over other people’s lives. get over it. give the guy a break. there’s way more critical things happening right now.

@Sebbe – every time I’ve been down south, I usually find the manners intriguing for the first 24-48 hours until they finally start to get on your nerves and you just want to say STFU. I guess it is easy to be polite when you have little going on and are not in a rush. As a boy originally from the south, I’ll take NYC any day. Oh, this sheriff is surely a douche. CNN had “breaking news” earlier on Phelps statement. Total bullshit. Phelps should at the least be paying these kids legal bills.

Somebody tell Sheriff Douchey the evidence has been smoked, and the bong has been run through he dishwasher. Case closed.

Sebbe- you are an idiot. And I say that as a well-educated true Southerner whose Yankee daddy decided long ago that the South was far superior to the North and he would never live there again!
As for the Phelps issue, I’m more annoyed at the money our sheriff is wasting. And the eventual court time and money that will be wasted on a few kids just having fun. I also feel sorry for the poor deputies who are being forced to do Lott’s dirty work.

Sebbe, you’re an idiot. Your grammar sucks, too. “If you live in jesusland your a joke…” should be you’re. I guess we learn more than good manners down here in “jesusland.” If you’re going to insult someone, at least know how to do it.

Sebbe, you’re an idot. By the way, your grammar sucks, too. “If you live in jesusland your a joke…” should be you’re. I guess we have more than just manners down here in “jesusland.” If you’re going to insult someone, at least know how to do it.

Well apparently there are more photos than just this one. I dont see how these other people can be arrested from a picture of another another person smoking. IMO thats just dumb.

That’s a WHOLE lot of people Sebbe is saying AREN’T “real, REAL” Americans…

First of all, I’d like to say that I live in Columbia, and just graduated from USC, and I don’t really appreciate the comments that Sebbe made. What exactly is the definition of an American? I don’t care where you’re from, I think it’s disrespectful to criticize others based solely on geography. If it means that I will be around people who actually have manners, then I’ll stay right here in good ‘ol South Carolina. (Note the sarcastic southern accent on that one, Sebbe). Secondly, I think this has been over publicized. Leon Lott is a crock who just wants some publicity for Richland County. Finally, if any of you watched “Really, Seth” on SNL, my feelings are mutual. The person who sold that picture is a complete bitch. *Y’all have a nice day, you hear?!* (That one’s for you, too, Sebbe. :)

I guess throwing Phelps under the bus wasn’t worth it. I am sure they bragged to whomever listened that they ‘partied’ with Michael Phelps. It was a douche move to sell the picture. It was a bigger douche move to try and sell the bong on eBay for $100K. Time to pay the piper.

So why are have these people been publically linked with this story?

Either bust everybody, or nobody, but don’t play favorites. This is so stupid. just because they don’t have the balls to bust Phelps doesn’t make him any less guilty. So everybody else has to take Phelps punishment. Makes a lot of sense.

Thank Goodness that Richland county obviously has NOTHING better to do, than get these dangerous, violent, pot-smoking maniacs off the street… It makes me fel so much safer…

@Ford – clearly #2 is the only one of them that has any real potential. Get the h*ll outta Carolina and away from those “real americans”. Move North were the “real real americans” live. BOS/WASH/NYC

i don’t really understand this… they weren’t arrested for taking the pic? Then why are they on here? I’m so confused lol
but the person who DID take that picture deserves a big fucking deck in the face
but trent, you thought phelps deserved punishment, but not these people who got in trouble for the same offense and got ‘real’ consequences?

Sebbe…Move North? wtf?

@Natty — they were arrested for various drug-related offenses (ranging from possession to having a fake id), not for taking any photos

By: Natty

Natty — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 22:53:32 +0000

What exactly were they arrested for? Taking a picture of a “celebrity” doing something millions of other people do?
