Warren G Regulated for Slangin' Chronic

Posted Jun 8th 2008 3:11PM by TMZ Staff

It was a clear black night, a clear white moon, Warren G was on the streets -- then got arrested for possession of A LOT of marijuana.

G, real name Warren Griffin III, and a man named Ryan Butler were pulled over for running a red light around 2 AM PT this morning in Hollywood. Butler was driving. When cops searched the car, they found enough marijuana to arrest both men for possession of narcotics with intent to sell!

Warren and Butler posted $20,000 bail each and were released at around 9 AM this morning.

Calls to Warren's reps have yet to be returned.

2. Why on EARTH would you run a RED LIGHT if you have a car full of weed!?!?!? How stupid is that?!

Posted at 1:59PM on Jun 8th 2008 by Legalize marijuana!

3. It's only pot. A feel good plant, grown in God's green earth...soil.

Legalize it and the cops need to be catching the real criminals, gang members, etc.

Chit.

Double chit.

4. Its sad that its illegal to possess a plant but alcohol is still legal.You can go out and get drunk,get pulled over,go to jail,and do it all over the next day if you choose.But you can't smoke a plant that grows out of the earth??I'm not saying weed is greatest thing in the world,but if i can CHOOSE to drink alcohol,i should be able to choose if i want to smoke weed or not.

6. How could they be arrested for narcotics, when marijuana is not a narcotic. Try "controlled substance".

7. Oh good lord, "ghetto" has absolutely nothing to do with weed. Sure, some people in the "ghetto" smoke weed, but guess what, they do it in suburbia, the major cities, the minor cities and... *gasp* even in the boonies.

I'm all for legalizing it too... at the very least, for medicinal purposes. It's a darn sight better for you than the narcotic pain killers you get prescriptions for, has less side effects, and isn't as (if at all) addictive as them either.

And btw... one man's "intent to sell" is another man's weekend stash. ~LoL~ Not that I'd know from personal experience or anything... *ahem*

9. Hey - Isn't this that same loser faux producer that was coddling that tranny mess wannabe singer-in-her-dreams, Jo De la Rosa, at the end of Season 2 on the RHoOC on Bravo? Nice. Seems like all the peeps with peripheral parts connected to that craptastic train wreck are getting arrested one by one. It's a trend. I can't wait to see who gets arrested next. Bravo sure knows how to pick 'em.

13. NO !!! Do NOT legalize marijuana !!! Pot is POISONOUS. It causes CANCER. ALL drug users are irresponsible, untrustworthy CRIMINALS.

We have enough trouble with DRUNKS. We certainly don't need POTHEADS behind the wheel.
