Jesus filled my bong

30 pounds of pot found inside pictures of Jesus

A marijuana bust along the U.S.-Mexico border revealed 30 pounds of the drug stuffed into framed pictures of Jesus Christ, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency said Wednesday.

“This is not the first time we have seen smugglers attempt to use religious figures and articles of faith to further their criminal enterprise,” said William Molaski, port director of the agency’s office in El Paso, Texas, in a statement.

“What some might find offensive or sacrilegious has unfortunately become a standard operating procedure for drug smugglers.</strong> </em>

Oh save me your insipid sanctimony and free the weed already. What is “offensive” or “sacrilegious” is that you are paid to destroy a weed that according to your little book o’ myth Jesus’ daddy made.

Morans.
