Thug Nation

Ellie
Out of touch with a reality, just a tad?
Joshua Dean Williams, 20 and another man apparently had a need for new tires. They had access to marijuana but were having a cash flow problem. (sigh) They decided to try to trade some pot for tires. Yep, thats right, pot for tires. Seemed sensible at the time. So they approached a tire store. Instead of asking a out of the way quiet locally owned tire store, they decided since they had POT to offer, they should approach the big boys. They went to a Sears Auto, tire store.

Apparently, the Sears tire store employees would not accept the pot for tires :(.
Some sort of altercation broke out. The pot vendors ended up swinging a bat at the stubborn Sears tire people, the stubborn Sears people through a rock at the pot vendor's car and busted their window. The pot vendors not willing to take no for an answer, grabbed two tires.

The pot vendors screeched off, with tires in hand, in their busted car. I am not sure what ensued in the preceding hour, but my guess is, they must have ingested some of the pot they had tried to trade. Logic being therefore skewed, they RETURNED to the Sears store to revenge the busting of their car window.

They were recognized at once and the police were called. One of the pot vendors was arrested. The other remains at large. I hope the at large pot vendor has his stash. He probably needs it.
