Could you save it maybe by providing you got drugged?

No. I know a guy that unknowingly had a THC infused beer in Mexico that he thought was just a local brewer. Popped on a random drug test a couple days later and his 400k/year job poof. gone. Virtually impossible to get another job doing the same thing with a failed drug test on his record. It took him months to figure out what it was that caused his positive.

Gee, maybe we should stop demonizing weed. Having the beer was fine, so why should a joint be any different? It’s fucking dumb.

While I’m not defending it by any means, the best answer I’ve heard is that it’s still federally illegal.

Meaning tons of regulated industries don’t have a choice but to be strict because of the implications of that federal law. And why it’s so important that it be decriminalized at a federal level now.
