# 20 Marijuana Arrests Set New Record | Project Censored
Project Censored announces the Top 25 Most Censored Stories for the last year and our own NORML Deputy Director Paul Armentano was recognized (along with MPP’s Bruce Mirken) for coverage of the story of the 2006 FBI Uniform Crime Report showing a fourth straight record number of marijuana arrests (now fifth straight) in America.
Congratulations on the honor, Paul, and thanks for bringing the issue to mainstream attention.

I am the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" for my work producing Oregon NORML's TV show, "A Cannabis Community Forum", and for helping to institute Portland's wildly successful medical marijuana cardholders meetings, where we help sick and disabled Oregonians acquire cannabis plant starts, learn gardening, and understand the medical marijuana law. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to be our daily voice.
