As many folks as there are who say "pots no big deal - should be handled like alcohol" one would think that if he wants to blow a joint on HIS time (as long as he ain't working high) it should be okay.

 

But thats NOT what the rules he agreed to follow when he got his card say. I don't see his suspension as one for blowing the joint he admitted to - I see it as he has shown no regard for living up to an agreement he made when he accepted his card.

 

Oh well - he should be able to put this behind him if he is willing to work at it - and change his lifestyle choices.

he screwed up. he owned up to it. now he is paying for his stupidity. gonna be hard to regain the trust of the suppliers and distributors if they all think he is a pot head now. its gonna probably cost him a lot more then he thinks. hope the joint was worth it.

hell he probably shared a joint with most of the suppliers ........

taking the "right/wrong, mj is/is not a big deal" out of this, when Nascar tells you right up front they are going to test you for XYZ substances, how do seemingly smart folks (with a lot to lose) think they are going to get by with stuff like this?

 

It's not like RLj was the first person suspended or that there hasn't been alot of publicity about other people caught up in Nascar drug testing up to now....
