    Happened to read this yesterday before I read about Bess, but it made me stop and think. Pot wouldn't make him act like that normally, but bath salts or PCP certainly could. And while it's a bit of a stretch, maybe Bess has an affinity for pot laced with PCP or something similar. The fact that they are from similar backgrounds made me recall what Dr. Dre said in this piece.

    The best thing about smoking pot (or so I've been told) is that unlike alcohol, and certainly unlike cocaine, is that NOBODY that is stoned wants to fight. You just say, 'Hey man, don't worry about, okay', and go about you business.

    @Rickapolis Incorrect. Myth.

    @Babbaloey @Rickapolis Sorry, I'm sure Rickapolis meant to say "the best thing about smoking pot not laced with PCP." Duh.

    @Rickapolis Not necessarily true. When I'm stoned I usually get in a couple fights every time. And I beat those bags of chips senseless. They never stood a chance.

    First thought was this was going to be about Harry Truman and his wife.

    I understand that our first instinct with a situation like this is to crack wise, at least that is my first instinct. However, I tend to think that this is a mental health issue and I fear that we will be talking about this kid being dead if he isn't helped soon. I feel sorry for the kid and am expecting the worst.

    Here's Bess's best day, in my opinion - the time he freaked Lardarius Webb to sleep.
