There is dumb while intoxicated, and there is dumb, intoxicated and selling pot door-to-door. :crazy:

BROWNSVILLE, Texas -- A 19-year-old Brownsville man is jailed on a drug charge after he allegedly went door-to-door trying to sell marijuana. A Brownsville police spokesman says Anthony Carrazco's alleged scheme went awry when he knocked on a police officer's apartment door.

Spokesman Jimmy Manrrique says the episode happened Thursday downtown near the University of Texas-Texas Southmost College campus. He says Carrazco appeared to be intoxicated and allegedly had 3 ounces of marijuana with him that he tried to sell door-to-door. Finally, Carrazco knocked on the off-duty police officer's door. The officer "said he would be right back and went to get his badge and handcuffs."

Manrrique says the officer, whose identity was withheld, also found a handgun hidden on the man. Carrazco remains in a Cameron County jail with bonds totaling $10,000. No attorney was listed in his booking record.

3. the whole scenario is stupid

starting with the fact that he was arrested because pot is not legal, continuing with his being legally drunk, selling door to door (won't speculate why but poverty comes to mind, of course) and ending with WHY THE FUCK IS POT ILLEGAL?

Reminds me of "Children of Men" where suicide pills are perfectly legal, but pot still isn't
