RVD was just on fox news live via satelite to talk about the whole michael phelps bong incident. RVD stood up for phelps and said that it was taken out of context jut because hes a famous person not your everyday guy on the street. Its funny how they picked rvd of all people to interview. They mentioned the whole van dam pot story and all that. Just thought id let you know since the boards been bland lately. RVD was fired up.(not warrior like)

How could a photo of someone taking a hit from a bong be taken out of context. That is the worst argument I've ever heard.

Because he stated that if it were a picture of phelps with a cigarette it would be perfectly fine and dandy even though cigarettes have more deaths linked to them than marijuana. RVD was basically saying to educate kids about the penalty of using marijuana. He said that championship athletes use it because of the level of performance they put on with their bodies. They say its better for the body than cigarettes, coke and heroin.

It's not a suprise that Rob Van Dam was sticking up for marijuana. Personally, I don't see a problem with pot. But it was a bad decision on Michael Phelps' part for doing that at a party. Anyways, RVD is still awesome, and needs to return. Just wanted to get that in there.

Phelps is stupid and while I understand the fight to make pot legal..seriously...it's almost juvenile for a grown man to defend it.

The fact that he is saying a picture could be taken out of context makes me just wish he'd keep his hot little mouth shut. Just smile cute for the cameras. I mean seriously, you can take a sentence or phrase out of context but a picture? Yeah, it's pretty obvious what was going on there.

To each there own and all, But Phelps is a role model for young kids. I mean smoke em' if ya got em'. But He should be smarter than to let someone take a picture. All the kids at the air brush stands in the middle of the mall were going to be pot heads anyway, so RVD didn't hurt anything when he got caught!!!

RVD was still holding a large amount of an illegal substance meaning there was cause to believe that RVD could have been distributing it which in the end is just as stupid. Phelps really should have known better and the fact that he's an athlete on a professional level and partakes in those types of drugs is just inane on his part and I am glad he lost a lot of his advertisers. He doesn't deserve them.

I hate how whining people are these days, especially when people put compromising photos on the internet. Leave the guy alone, after all he's done for this country, they get mad he acts like a PERSON. Quit treating them like gods, and treat them like regular people. I support RVD.

Taken out of context means that the photo taken does not show smoke in the pipe. It does not prove that he smoked weed. it could have easily have been Phelps saying "Hey is this how you smoke a bong?" Then some wise ass takes a pic of him. That's how it can be taken out of context.

See, there is a time and a place if that's what you want to do. At a party with tons of people gawking at you...Not a good time or place. Speeding down the highway with a man who looks like a murderer...Not a good time or place. At home where no one can see you...Much better time and MUCH better place!!!

People made the choice to call him a role model because of what he did.
