A few puffs on a joint isn’t even close to abuse.
You just throw words around.
I agree that security matters, but a loss of security is orders of magnitude beyond what Musk did in the video.
I had a security clearance continuously for 25 years. So you’re going to tell me how that system works? Good luck with that. Regs are regs, personal views are completely irrelevant. You can be ordered to take a drug test at ANY TIME. They can call you in for urinalysis on Christmas Day if they want. If you fail that drug test, you’re gone and all your rationalization and soft-pedaling won’t mean jack. It’s 2018 but to the governing regulations for security clearances, it’s still 1954, back when taking a hit of grass was considered no different than a shot of heroin.
Honestly, for this guy, he will probably get his security clearance suspended for awhile and get some letter of warning to send a message. Since it’s on public video, they have to do SOMETHING. If this guy was military, he would’ve been in the brig an hour after his CO was alerted to the video. Elon is lucky to be in the position that he is. If he was running Lockheed or Boeing, he’d already have “resigned to spend more time with family”. YOU clearly don’t understand how conservative that business is. It’s not like the CEO of the Huffington Post smoking a J on vacation in the Hamptons.
