Defending Phelps

I just joined this Facebook group:

Boycott Kellogg's for Dumping Phelps Over Bong Photo

Kellogg's has decided to withdraw its sponsorship of Michael Phelps because he was photographed allegedly smoking marijuana out of a bong.

More than 100 million Americans -- our friends, our family, and our president -- have admitted to using marijuana, and they shouldn't be treated like criminals!

On the other hand, there's a valid argument that an ordinary person caught with pot would get in trouble, so why should celebrities be treated differently? They shouldn't. It should be legalized for everyone, plain and simple.
