[QUOTE="soberups, post: 433597, member: 14668"] Is it possible we are being a bit too hard on the guy for having a small amount of weed? Yes, weed is a drug...but so is alcohol. Both are chemicals ingested into the body to alter mood and perception. Both can be harmful if used excessively. One is legal, the other is not for the most part. Am I to assume that those who are critical of this guy are teetotalers, who never have a beer or two after work? In Oregon, posession of less than 1 ounce is an infraction, the same as a speeding ticket. The fine is $250 and there is no arrest or jail time, and it does not remain on your criminal record. Yes what the guy did was wrong, but absent any evidence that he used drugs or was under the influence during work hours, he should at least be given the benefit of due process and not treated like a criminal or a loser simply for having some residue of weed in his pocket.
