I dont believe Chong wasnt arrested, but he WAS raided at both his buisness AND his home by the DEA for drugs and dirty prafanalia. If I remember right one of his kids also got raided. No shittin either, he (Chong himself) was on a radio station here in my town not just two days after he got raided (less that 2 weeks ago) and was talkin about it. He does a gig at a comedy club here like once a year with his wife and kid. By the way, have you guys seen Chongs wife?........Hottie! So, **** the DEA and our government on the way they handle pot laws! Isnt pot just a plant? Leave it alone! Go get some gang bangers.
The reason marijuana was ciminalized back in the 1930's is complex. But it's based on 3 things; rascism, $ and control.
23/02/2003 Chong, once one-half of the high-f (literally) comedy team, Cheech & Chong, saw his Gardena, California, factory and Pacific Palisades home raided Monday by federal drug agents and other authorities, Los Angeles TV station NBC4 reported. The Chong sweep was said to be related to nationwide Drug Enforcement Agency-led crackdowns on businesses that trade in what U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft called Monday the "illegal drug paraphernalia industry." The initiatives--dubbed, in the tradition of double-entendre-titled Cheech & Chong flicks, Operation Pipe Dreams and Operation Headhunter--swept up 55 people from California to Florida, with most of the arrests coming in Pennsylvania. Neither Tommy Chong, nor Chong Glass, was named in the indictment. A message left on Chong Glass' answering machine ("Okay, damn, you just reached Chong Glass," its owner intones on the outgoing message) was not returned Monday. A DEA official said search warrants were served on Chong's business and home. It was not immediately known what came of the raids. Chong Glass, with its stock of handpipes and hammers and sidecars, is described in the comic's official bio as a family business that provides "a unique collection of high-quality, original functional art and signature merchandise." "When he is not at Chong Glass testing the merchandise," his Website notes, Chong, 64, is on the stand-up circuit twice a month with his new partner in gags, wife Shelby. Chong's show-biz career started smoking in the 1970s when he and Cheech Marin played tie-dyed stoners in a series of pot-joke comedies, such as Up in Smoke. The duo split in 1985. Marin went prime-time, playing Don Johnson's straight-shooting partner in Nash Bridges. Chong continued to bill himself as a hemp advocate and a "born-again doper," playing Hyde's stoner tie-dyed boss on That '70s Show. Last month, Chong's daughter, actress Rae Dawn Chong, told E! Online that she has penned a script aimed at reuniting her father with Marin. Its title: Cheech & Chong Get Blunt. The people indicted Monday, many of them owners of either real-world retail shops or cyberspace e-commerce sites, were charged with selling items that, the feds say, are "primarily intended or designed to be used in ingesting, inhaling or otherwise using controlled substances." Translation: bongs, crack pipes, roach clips and miniature spoons. Those under indictment face a maximum three years in prison, and/or a $250,000 fine, per count, if convicted.

The government has way too much time on it's hands. I say BLAME THE GOVERNMENT, I mean really isn't that how you all feel? If so remember, WE the people, are the government. Unite and act.
