COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) Olympic superstar Michael Phelps could face criminal charges as part of the fallout from a photo that surfaced showing the swimmer smoking from a marijuana pipe at a University of South Carolina house party.
A spokesman for Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott, who is known for his tough stance on drugs, said Tuesday the department was investigating.
"Our narcotics division is reviewing the information that we have, and they're investigating what charges, if any, will be filed," said Lt. Chris Cowan, a spokesman for agency.

LOL, physician, heal thyself:
Liberals deemed alcohol a drug, Sparky. I deem alcohol to be alcohol.
I was right, you are a nanny state pseudo. Thanks for clearing that up

Again, individual responsibility has nothing to do with the Nanny state. Confusing the two does. Deeming things to be what they arent leads to what you believe now.
Thanks for proving you can’t read very well. Then again, I suppose that’s what happens when you’re stoned. You would know.
Hahahahaha. That line of "logic" is so dumb that it's hard to believe a grown man would say it.
Since when you are the one who gets to deem what is a drug or not?

What’s harder to believe is that you believe liberals and are dumb enough to support drug use.
“Since when you are the one who gets to deem what is a drug or not?”
Since when are liberals the ones who get to deem what is a drug or not?
I don't care about drug use one way or another for adults. I am for them to have the right to do so. We do live in a free country, or that's the stuff I was told as a kid anyways.

As far as I know, alcohol contains ethanol, which is definitely a central nervous system depressant, which makes it a psychoactive substance (which is a "drug" in this context). Of course any adult who has lived in western society with an IQ over 50 knows that booze is a psychoactive substance. I'm not sure why you don't. Unless it's the same reason many boozers don't. Because they don't want to see themselves as people who would dare to use drugs!
National Survey on Drug Use and Health Trends in Past Month Substance Use (1979 - 2006):

The survey has included alcohol since 1979. It is now incumbent upon you to admit that you stand refuted.

Well, that says it all. Yet another person who is willing to excuse drug use.

I am not refuted. I am vindicated. Check out the background of the study and you’ll discover the authors were liberals. Seriously, put some time into it.
Enjoy!
Son of a gun, we actually agree. I've maintained for years that Drug Warriors are big government nanny state socialists.
Of course I’m willing to excuse drug use. I excuse you for drinking your beer and wine.

My drinking of beer and wine needs no excuse.
Too bad. It would have been a prefect excuse for your terrible arguments.

My arguments are fine. It’s just my opponents are too invested in being stoned to know it.
Your arguments are the epitome of suck.
“blah blah blah dopers blah blah blah”
“alcohol isn’t a drug. liberals say it is. blah blah blah”
“blah blah blah dopers blah blah blah”
It’s clear the booze has wrecked your brain to come up with anything decent.

No, sucking seems to be your dominant trait.
“Its clear the booze has wrecked your brain to come up with anything decent.”
Since I rarely even consume alcohol, that’s doubful. You, on the other hand, still support dope - and are a perfect example why it’s called that.
