Sega halts game shipment after actor arrested on drug charge | WTOP

The maximum penalty upon conviction for using cocaine in Japan is seven years in prison.

How much yay did this guy have? Or are drug laws super strict in Japan? But then again there are plenty of things over here that carry wacky max sentences but get pleaded down to like 2 days.

Also, in Japan it's a big deal for a guy in a techno band to get caught with drugs? Very different culture over there.

His two-year-old son was on his lap. Considering what happened, he might have been better off if he had let his son drive the car.

Well there you go
"One witness told officers the child was holding onto the steering wheel"

I can't think of any reason - sober or not - to be driving with your toddler in your lap, unless you just snatched him from his mother in a custody fight, and you didn't think about a child seat.

Letting a child steer a car is like letting a reality television star run the country.

But he didn't name any names. Of course I'm pretty sure I know which "reality television star" he's referring to. Remember, I live in a state where George Murphy, Ronald Reagan, Clint Eastwood, Sonny Bono, Sheila Kuehl and Arnold Schwarzenegger went into politics.

Brigitte Bardot recorded several albums in the 1960s and '70s. If she records another album, maybe she can sing the song from Disney's 1995 movie Pocahontas: "Savages! Savages! Dirty little heathen....."

A two-year-old is incapable of having "control" of a car and steering a motor vehicle involves much more than simply "holding onto the steering wheel." Look at step #1 here: "Adjust the seat so that your feet comfortably reach both pedals." No further questions, your honor.

The NAACP Image Awards ceremony will be televised live March 30 from the Dolby Theater in Hollywood. Smollett is nominated for best supporting actor in a drama series. I hope he loses and I hope his career is over. Instead of being thankful the charges were dropped and instead of apologizing for sending threatening letters to himself and staging an attack, he continues to say -- as all criminals say about themselves -- he's innocent. And now.......
