Just because a man smokes a little reefer does not mean they are irresponsible, OR pose a danger to anyone by owning guns.
I've seen discussions like this get pretty heated. I hope we can keep common sense in this discussion.
Zero tolerance leave no room for common sense.

What does make sense is this. Whether you feel the laws that prohibit the possession or use of marijuana to be foolish or not, a blatant disregard for the current law is foolish. He was aware that marijuana was illegal, he was caught with it, and will now pay the consequences for "smoking a little pot". When someone disagrees with a law and simply disregards that law, it certainly doesn't give them the right to cry foul when caught breaking it. People who speed on the highway for example. Drive a red vette 100 mph on the freeway and get popped. Well, don't complain, pay the ticket. You need to outweigh the consequences vs. the benefits.
