For Willie Nelson, the Ordeal is Over

On Sept. 18, 2006, Louisiana state troopers boarded Willie Nelson's tour bus and arrested the legendary country singer, his sister Bobbie, road manager Dave Anderson and two drivers for possessing a total of 1.5 pounds of pot and three ounces of magic mushroom. Not nice.

Today (Apr. 24), Nelson and Anderson pled guilty to the charges and both received $1,024 fines and six-months' probation. Charges against Bobbie Nelson and the drivers were dismissed.

Nelson actually was given a 60-day jail sentence, which was suspended.

After his surprise appearance in St. Martin Parish Court in St. Martinville (the arrest took place in nearby Breux Bridge, in the heart of cajun country), the CelebStoner was back on the road again.

Now Nelson will be able to truly enjoy his 74th birthday, which he celebrates on Apr. 30.

I was recently wondering when it would happen. He seems like an easy target, legendary and all, for "the law" trying to make a name for themselves. BS. He is, and always will be: the man, not a myth, the legend.

if you don't pay your taxes; "Uncle Sam " will CRUSH you like they did Al Capone....We need a new government! SORRY!!!

stop paying taxes

if all americans stop paying taxes at the same time it would make such a drastic blow to the governments finances they would not be able to do anything but bow to or power(money)

and for the dipshit who will say, "but they will throw us all in jail."

WHERE DO WE HAVE TO PUT THAT MANY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE IN INCARCERATION?

NOWHERE. THERE IS NOT ENOUGH JAIL SPACE AS IT IS NOW. NOT TO MENTION THE IRS IS 14 YEARS OR SO BEHIND ON PROSECUTING TAX CASES.
