every dog has his day...in court
Bitches are bitches.
@@LEO-xo9cz 🤣🤣🤣
Is this like the furry version of Breaking Bad?
The only thing that stops a bad dog with a grenade launcher, is a good dog with a grenade launcher
Hahahahahahahaa omggg
Marijuana is like coffee. Should only be charged for the weapons..
It wasn't a joke... Maybe that's why lol
Whoever created the singing dog was also on drugs.
One of the turds.
Why can't I stop laughing. What next, Smokey the Bear arrested for making and selling meth?
to make that ironic is he is caught doing a arson based crime
Did he have grenades? a "grenade launcher" is most likely just a 37mm flare launcher. People jump to conclusions over nothing.
Ya, and the title of this video calls it a rocket launcher, it is pure sensationalism.
"most likely" Oh, the irony.
Could also be a Yugo SKS.
thatsnotagoodidea That is true.
Oh if it was just a grenade launcher then why is every one upset. *rolls eyes*
That's it McGruff, turn in your badge and gun, you're out of control!
(btw, anyone else think only someone on drugs could think up a bloodhound in a trench coat?)
You're a loose cannon McGruff!
McGruff was partner, I was so close to retiring. I'm getting to old for this shit!
The most troubling discovery was "probably" the grenade launcher...?
It’s a free country!
Drew Barry more never said no to drugs. Never.
He was obviously stocking up for a war against crime... the pot was uhh... a trap.
When I first read the title I thought this was an Onion video.
World's a funny place, idn't it?
No joke guys I actually used to dress up as McGruff when I was a police explorer. We never emphasized the point that the dog was against drugs, just said that he was taking a bite out of crime. The suit was really hot, but it was cool to make little kids smile.
This video also fails to mention that the guy they are talking about (John Morales) wasn't the original Crime Dog McGruff. He was just a short replacement when the original voice over McGruff became too old. The original McGruff died many years ago at the age of 94. He couldn't keep it going any longer. I will admit that they clearly picked a poor replacement for him and that it's pretty damned ironic that anyone who voiced for McGruff committed these crimes but it would be a shame to let that ruin the entire legacy of the REAL "Crime Dog" because of what some half ass replacement did when he only had a very short time even playing that role. That would be like saying every Batman movie sucks because of that one time they let George Clooney play him. John Morales was as much McGruff as Clooney is Batman. BTW... The real Crime Dog finally just got elected to the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame. Fred McGriff was always much more of a Crime Dog than John Morales ever was.
Wait, so McGruff the Crime Dog is actually a Hispanic named Juan Morales?!?
Remember kids, if you have a parent using drugs, don't be afraid to do the right thing and tell your D.A.R.E. officer at your school, and help take a bite out of crime!
Users are losers, he's right, and that's why he's a seller.
1000 marijuana plants, and 27 weapons...a liberal's greatest dilemma.
Its all personal.... All kidding aside, we should question why there where "drug sniffing" dogs at a speed stop? Especially since its been ruled in court that the dogs are unreliable....
GENERALJOHNNYREBEL
If you pull someone over on the basis of a Terry stop, you may perform a brief investigatory search to confirm or deny the reasonable suspicion based upon some objective articulable fact. It has been held by the Supreme Court that it is not an unreasoanble seizure to wait until a drug dog can come to sniff around the car. A car owner does not have a reasonable expectation of privacy in the fumes emitting from his vehicle nor do the police need a warrant to search an automobile because of it's inherently subject to more regulation thus lowering its expectation of privacy.
The search was completely justified SO LONG AS the stop was good.
Not a Classical Liberal's. To them, neither are crimes.
id love to see the argument for why people need grenade launchers.
Obviously you need to blow him and the innocent bystanders around him up before he blows up you and the innocent bystanders around you.
have you seen the pieces of field artillery that can be purchased and shot by private owners? I think owning a working artillery piece would be interesting to have from a historical standpoint, but it will stay a plaything of the rich. A grenade launcher is a poor man's artillery, I would suspect fun to shoot at a range where it would be allowed, but would have limited legal uses for self defense. Side note- grenade launchers are used to launch rubber bullets into protesters, so it doesn't have to be lethal to be used for home defense.
hell if you have the money you can legally buy a artillery machine gun
This made my day lol. WTF was he going to do with a grenade launcher? He should right a book, or explain because my imagination is going wild with this story.
"Say hello to my lil friend!"
Write*
its way more complicated than you think; McGruff was fighting the illuminati and they set him up,,, now the actor who played Smokey the bear might be our only hope
How in the fuck do you misspell write?
lol70721 deadpool1377 Well I left a book once... on the nightstand ;-)
If you see a talking dog in a raincoat, you're probably a user.
some guys get 16 years in jail, other states pot is a tourist boom. i don't get it.
but the weapons, that's pretty fuckin weird.
McGruff, more like McPuff.
Scruff.. McGruff... Chicago Illinois 60652
Well I guess it is Scruff.. McGruff... Joliet, Illinois 60431
I only trust a dog in a rain coat. Only!
It probably want an actual grenade launcher, just a prop like an inert AT-4 or a perfectly legal 37mm flare launcher.
He will share a cell with the guy who played Barney
I took my daughter to Disneyland, and saw Donatello get arrested for being drunk & disorderly.
New Obama controversy: Fast and Furriest.
I LOVE THIS STORY!!!! the irony is killing me!
This is what happens when you lose your balls. You are forced to overcompensate!
Breaking McGruff!
Aww, poor Scruff. Sounds like times got hard for everyone...
The irony is killing me.
sorry to hear that then he should practice what he preaches...
damn it mcgruff....... i trusted you. you just took a bite out of my childhood :(
Maybe if there were more talking dogs in trench coats in the world I wouldn't need drugs.
Grenade launchers are actually legal, it's the grenades that are illegal.
The plan was to work deep undercover, then take a huge bite out of crime. He just didn't tell anyone else
Users are losers and losers are users!
Oh, the irony. It's too much.
FREE MCGRUFF.
"lalala don't use drugs lalala don't use drugs" except for 3 bottles of wine on saturday, tooootally fine...
Reality seems to prefer little ironies like that. I like it.
That dog looks like a flasher
Am i the only one who thinks this is slightly miss-titled?
lol
Say no to drugs. Do what the government tells you. Don't think for yourself. Don't you dare explore your own mind or body or we'll lock you up for 20 years!
next week... smokey the bear is a pyro
wait,what?!!! so...can i play smokey in tf2 then?
This is hilarious
Like what kind of shady things are you doing when you own a grenade launcher? I can't even come up with a scenario where I'd need one.
If I could afford the ammo and get to a range day like the "Big Sandy" range days I think it could be a lot of fun. Also not sure of what size this one was, but they can be used for flares and I have seen a modification to launch a heaving line to shore on a larger ship.
Please don't mistake a grenade launcher for a Rocket Launcher, you think of VERY different things while hearing the two.
I hope the video title was a mistake and not for view count.
16 years?... that's ruff!
I remember dressing up as mgruff in elemetaty school. Man he should be hanging out with cheech and chong.
"Simmons! What's evidence say about his ammunition count?"
"IT'S OVER 9000!!!!"
McGruff can still keep his name "The Crime Dog"
So he had pot and guns, whoopty doo. Also I doubt he could get ammunition for that launcher.
but 9000 rounds is totally normal. and grenade launchers are legal (as long as their registered).
A stoned Drew Barrymore saying, "I just said no to drugs!" That's precious.
It wasn’t Mcgruff at all... it was just the voice actor!
Arrested for pot and a Rocket Launcher. That escalated quickly
Did nothing wrong. Let him go.
Wow, the US still uses mascot's for public service announcements?
Isn't that a little...dated?
how exactly can mascots be outdated? thats like saying why do teams have mascots inst that outdated ?
TechnoGecko No, Mascots for public service announcements, not in general
Over here in Australia, it only takes a police officer, doctor or fireman to get a message across
*****
As an adult, the realization of what D.A.R.E. actually was made my blood boil.
Oh yeah, well it's a plant and a drug. Even though it's less harmful than alcohol, yet it's still illegal. To honest as an independent who's not a liberal or conservative, the whole war on drugs is obviously a waste of time, legalize pot now. We could save over billions worth of tax dollars, it might as well expand the US economy for good.
It is vile that our justice system lets corrupt corporate executives get off with merely a slap on the wrist, but a black man caught with a joint gets YEARS of prison time.
Indeed.
1:28 3:50 Infinite trollface. Infinite lolface. Infinite O-face.
Oh sweet fucking jesus this was good.
I just think...Maybe he wouldn't have had the weapons, if cannabis was legal.
It actually makes since. I'm a pharmacist. Some pharmacists think they can get away with stealing narcotics. I think the closer you are to a particular "thing," the more you know about it and the processes involved in preventing diversion of that "thing." People start to think if ways they can get away with it. Some are caught and some probably get away with it at least until they are caught.
You know what I DON'T miss? The 80's. Seriously, WTF were we all thinking?
Apparently John Morales thought "take a bite out of crime" meant worming himself a share of the black market profits
This sounds like a Robot Chicken skit.
He took a big bite out of crime and he liked the taste
Easy to hide behavior like that when you're playing a character in a dog costume that obscures your face.
So... why is he in jail?
Has a ton of weapons -> 'murica (or are people suddenly for country-wide disarming of citizens).
Personally my house is stocked with real swords, axes, combat knives, etc. but it's the same friggin' principle.
Pot -> can't rationally be considered a crime, neither the smoking, nor the growing, nor the selling.
I can't wait till Smokey the Bear's voice actor gets busted for arson.... that would be hilarious.
16 years seems extreme, but this guy had enough ammo and guns to do some real major harm. A couple of years with a life time ban on owning a fire arm would have been more appropriate.
Crime took a bite outta him
Hey, I didn't know I was subscribed to The Onion.
Instead of saying McGruff should say take a puff out of crime.
At least he did not do snuff like Brian the dog on Family Guy. He became severely addicted to coke after the DEA solicited his services as a professional sniffer. If I break wind my gal, what that is French, wrinkles her nose and says "Who shit?', because there ain't no appropriate phrase en FRANCAIS. So is Mc Gruff another one of those McDonalds' characters like Mac Cheese or Muffin? How is the wind in Chicago? ED OF MONTON.
There so much hot air blowing around you don't feel the wind.
I missed the rocket launcher. Theory on MH17, think explosives on board, plane asked to lower altitude, remote transmission? Too much of a coincidence, second Malaysian plane down this year, this one left a real mess. Ukrainians good with shot guns, borscht. Rebels would shoot themselves in the foot.
The Rebel might have done just that "shot themselves in the foot". Good way of putting it.
Thanks. When 'Mcgruff' gets out of jail he should enter politics. Would make a great Canadian senator! (More planes falling from the skies, f-----g eh)?
How the heck was that dude only 7 years old when McGruff was introduced to the public?
Every American has a 2nd Amendment right to own a grenade launcher, a flame thrower and a stinger anti air missile launcher!! lol
if i dont get a nuke then what did the second amendment mean clearly i should have a nuclear weapon and dont you dare question me you anti american hater lol
Maybe if pot was legal, this guy wouldn't have thought he needed a grenade launcher.
And now I can enjoy the McGruff musical album even more.

Remember that?
The area code? Not so much. As for the rest? Yep.
Take a definitive side Cenk, is smoking pot a crime or not. If it shouldn't be criminalized, producing it shouldn't be a crime neither.
Ok, but 16 years... He could have said something about that sentence.
Guess you're right, but it always disturbs me when some one falls under laws voted by the most corrupted people on the face of the earth, hence my reaction not being totally objective...^^
There is generally a difference in using and dealing most drugs, as the dealers generally tend to employ violence when they don't get their way. The entire point of legalizing is so people can get pot without having to get it from such dangerous people.
But you guys are pro pot..... also he's just an actor it is not like he signed on to be McGruff minded for life
I'll bet Jerome is helping him take a bite "into" crime if you catch my drift lol
That ad alone was deserving of a custodial sentence.
Rofl I remember most of these ads when they were new... Damn I'm old.
OVER 9,000!!!
(rounds of ammunition that is)
The weed is so he can become a Super Saiyan that has ascended past a Super Saiyan, the grenade launcher is to go even further beyond.
Great DBZ reference right here!
does anyone notice how around 1:20 or so he says "mcgruff the crime doge"? xD
9000 rounds is that all? Wait till they get a load of me! :)
I think he was just a gun collector.
"Im going to take a bite out of crime, SO i can do more crime myself"
Turns out Smokey the Bear was recently arrested for arson.
I had the comic books as a kid... I am running out of rolling papers...
You forgot the third irony. Morales = morals.
Nobody's that stupid this is clearly a set-up.
Intellihub News reported on that last week.
good for them!
Thats so freaking awesome im out of words.
I am the one who barks
How symbolic of the hypocrisy of the authorities.
Now the question is, are the 16 years because of the weed farm or because of the grenade launcher?
Oh the irony, it burns.
