Checks out. He was McGruff the Crime Dog, not McGruff the Police Detective in a Trenchcoat.

What you need is a criminal spokesperson.

Just wanted to grow some plants and be ready for war with the DEA. Still sounds like an okay dude to me.

Two points:

First, the guns were only illegal because of the marijuana; no pot, the gun crime there.

Second, grenade launchers are legal. Grenades are not. Or, more specifically, each one has to have a serial number, be transferable, requires a background check by the ATF, and requires a $200 tax stamp. I think that they're classified as "other destructive device".

The commercials burned the song into my brain.

Crack and cocaine will also be burning your brain, making a mess of your mind.

I think this was just a guy who wore the suit in Texas. Jack Keil was the voice we all remember, not John Morales.
