You would be surprised on how many people get kicked out of the Navy for using Pot.. Thats the way the Navy WEEDS out the idiots who still smoke pot even though we get drugged tested sometimes 2-3 times a month.. If they make it legal to buy and smoke Pot then most of them who got kicked out with dishonorable discharge due to smoking pot would have a case to get that changed to a other then or Honorable dishcharge and may even get to come back in the military..

Not at all surprised. I've seen cops lose their jobs because they peed hot. But I seriously doubt the flood gates would open up and all the ships at sea would be filled with formerly rejected stoners. Any employer, including the Federal government, reserves the right to say, "Legal or not, our employees can't do it. You want to take the job, then you agree not to smoke weed." Legal or not, I don't want someone who spent the weekend with his or her face stuck to a bong in control of a nuclear missile on a submarine on Monday morning, or at the controls of a multi-million dollar aircraft. I haven't yet seen research data that disproves marijuana's effects on short-term memory, the ability to concentrate, coordination and reflexes. It also has an effect on the ability to judge speed, distance and reaction time.
