BELLINGHAM, Wash. (AP) — A man is accused of trying to get marijuana into a Washington state jail by attaching it to an arrow he shot onto the roof.

A Whatcom County sheriff's employee saw the man step out of his pickup truck and use a bow to launch the arrow toward the jail's second-floor recreation area, but it missed its target.

((snip))

The sheriff says Jordan told deputies he had been aiming at a squirrel, but he couldn't explain why he needed to attach marijuana to the arrow to go squirrel hunting.

Pygmies use curare. Liberals use marijuana.

Wow, he must be quite the archer! I don’t know anyone that hunts squirrel with a bow.

Oh, and western gray squirrels are protected in Washington so he could be in trouble there too if he was shooting at a western gray squirrel. Just saying.

We’ve got pot shops all over the state now. Sometimes they’ve got some dufus young guy waving a sign with the green cross outside the place, like it was Domino’s Pizza.

… but he couldn't explain why he needed to attach marijuana to the arrow to go squirrel hunting.

If he missed there’d be some happy squirrels?

If he missed, the squirrels would get so stoned they’d be easy to catch by hand?

This is common. My brother works at the prison in Buena Vista CO they find arrows all the time. Sometimes they still have dope attached.

I like this version.

I shot an arrow into the air.
It fell to earth I know not where.
Until one day, with rage profound,
The man it fell on came around.
In less time than it takes to tell,
He showed me where the arrow fell.
And now I do not rightly care,
To shoot more arrows into the air!

More and more inner city squirrels are getting hooked on dope, sad.
