Shia LaBeouf Wanted by the Cops for Smoking

Quick question: did you know it’s now illegal to smoke outside on the sidewalk in some cities, such as Los Angeles? Apparently so. Actor Shia LaBeouf was recently cited for “unlawful smoking” (whatever the hell that means) and ticketed. I shit you not. This is not April and this isn’t some April Fool’s joke. MTV’s got this story about LaBeouf now having a bench warrant out for his arrest when he failed to show up in court to pay his “unlawful smoking” ticket. Holy shit. Did someone replace my country with Nazi Germany and forgot to tell me about it?

The law’s got a beef with LaBeouf. Say it out loud. Come on, it’s fun. According to TMZ, the man who may or may not be Indiana Jones’ offspring received a ticket on February 18 for unlawful smoking, a misdemeanor. But Shia’s unfortunate decision to light up on the sidewalk isn’t the end of his problems. The real issue is that the actor (and his legal counsel) apparently failed to show up for his court appearance this morning, meaning there’s now a $1,000 bench warrant out for his arrest.

I’m offended in so many ways by this stupid law, and I don’t even smoke!
