Not Stoned, Just Gaming

A driver in Queensland was arrested on suspicion of being stoned because he spoke to police about mystical dragons.  He was also allegedly unsteady on his feet and slurring his words.

I argue that these symptoms could just as readily be explained as the result of a long Dungeons & Dragons session rather than a bong session.  The mystical dragons bit is self-evident as gamers do like to talk about the monsters they have beaten.  The lack of balance and slurring of words was clearly caused by a combination of exhaustion and grease and caffeine overdose.

All gamers should be aware of this outrageous discrimination and blatant hobbiest profiling by Police.  We will be watching the court case with interest.

Note to self - never say the words "mystical" or "dragon" in front of a Police Officer.
