Bizarre Marijuana Debate Between Louisiana, Colorado Congressmen: “Smoking Crayfish Ain’t Good For You” [VIDEO]

A debate between a Colorado congressman and a Louisiana representative on the U.S. House floor has made "smoking crayfish" the next potential viral hashtag.

Rep. Jared Polis, D-Co was clearly offended by Rep. John Fleming, R-La, who commented on what he called the "negative impacts of legalizing marijuana on Colorado and its children."

Polis fired back at Flemings comments saying,

I just wish that you would leave my sovereign state of Colorado alone. Let our people and our state government decide what we want to do with regard to marijuana rather than a federal agent going around trying to arrest people for doing activities that are fully legal under state law. That’s all I ask

Perhaps the best part of Polis response was his hilarious quote about "smoking crayfish."

I’m not going to send federal troops into Louisiana to arrest people for whatever you do down there, smoking crayfish. Want me to ban that and send federal troops down there? I bet maybe smoking crayfish ain’t good for you. What if it’s fried? Might clog your arteries, huh?

We've heard of pinching the tail and sucking the head, but smoking it? Don't try this at home.
