George Michael Arrested

#

I hope that George Michael has faith da faith da faith in the judicial system. Yesterday, the British singer was arrested on suspicion of drug possession after he was found slumped over the steering wheel of a car in London. Whatever he was on falls into the Class C drug group, which includes pot, tranquilizers and various painkillers. Under British law, anyone convicted of possessing Class C drugs can be jailed for up to two years and face unlimited fines. But if you've followed Pete Doherty's drug arrests at all, I predict that the bobbies give George a spot of tea, pat him on the back and send him on his way. It seems like you can smoke crack and empty your pipe on one of those guards with the fuzzy hats outside Buckingham Palace, yet walk away without a lick of jail time in England. Not that I recommend trying it.
