Snoop Dogg And His Dangerous Weapon

Calvin Broadus aka Snoop Dogg, amongst others*
Snoop Dogg, Snoop Doggy Dogg, The Doggfather, The Bigg Boss Dogg, Snoop D-O-Double-G...
...or just plain ol’ Calvin Broadus was recently busted by airport authorities. And no, it wasn’t for his striking resemblance to a poodle or his unique command of the English language, fo’ shizzle.
The Hip Hop tycoon was stopped after a 21-inch baton was found in his hand luggage just as he boarded a plane headed for New York. This baton, which apparently collapses to 8 inches, was placed in his laptop case and was identified as a dangerous weapon.
Snoop Dogg told airport staff that the baton was simply a prop that he needs for the movie he is currently filming in New York. And it sounds like prosecutors believed him. There were no arrests made and the District Attorney’s office is still deciding whether or not to pursue the matter.
Of course, this isn’t the first time the 35-year-old rapper has had a hiccup at the airport. Earlier this year, he was arrested for violent disorder after starting a brawl at the British Airways’ First-Class Lounge at London’s Heathrow Airport. It was so bad that British Airways has banned The Doggfather from ever getting on one of their flights ever again.
He has also previously been convicted of cocaine possession, gun possession and was acquitted of a murder charge.
And I’m still waiting for the Etiquette police to arrest him for everything else...
