Selling it is still illegal, but the pot dealer is no longer the panic-inducing bogeyman he used to be. In movieland, he's become a stock character, about as threatening as the hot woman's quirky roommate...

It's not for Americans to question why we've never been defeated by this little den of evil that rests on our shores, but in case someone missed it, any federal agency that trains any group of killing machines is evil. The Diplomatic Security Service messed up and picked the wrong guy, the supersmart guy to take the fall for them, this time, like always. The man they frame is of course not only super-human, but well supplied with...
