The case of atheist leader Ellenbeth Wachs: opinions? Info?

You claimed that “the charges”, with no qualification, were dismissed. This is not strictly true - you pleaded no contest, which is not the same thing as having the charges dismissed.

As Chimera points out, you were, in fact, in possession of the stuff.

And most people define “being sober” as refraining from the recreational use of substances such as marijuana as well as not drinking alcohol. YMMV.

That’s because it’s never happened in the history of ever.

Almost always, being a successful leader, of any organization requires a slightly modified attitude than described as , ‘I will NOT be a nice person.’

In my experience people only self describe in the most generous terms. So when someone says, ‘Oh I can get a little testy!’, they are trying to let you know they are a right asshole sometimes.

That said, “I will NOT be a nice person.” kind of speaks volumes for me!

In this case, your sarcasm might accidentally be sincere.

From one of the articles one of her neighbors called police SIX MONTHS after they claimed one of their children heard “sexual noises” coming from inside her house.

I don’t know how anyone could support that arrest, unless the media is grossly misreporting on this.

Another article mentioned the detail that the arrest and complaint came six months after the alleged moaning.

How old was the boy, and did his name happen to be “John”?

Nevertheless, I agree that so far it sounds like trumped-up horseshit, whether or not Ms. Wachs was in fact the owner of the whopping two grams of devil’s weed.

seems you all have your answers and don’t need the actual facts

Take care.

I’ve known a couple people who did that. Usually it was someone whose SO smoked, and they let the SO keep a small stash at their place, though.

So, that settled, would you care to go out sometime?

Sure, you bringing the pot?

See? I love you already, not necessarily for the pot reference, but because you’ve been able to keep your sense of humor through all of this.

You haven’t got a prayer…

i see what you did there. :wink:

All those telling me they were praying for me were lying? :smack:

Or stoned…

*Anyone *can use esq. after his or her name, lawyer or not, retired or not. Unlike Dr., Esq. is not a controlled title, is granted by no authority, and has no legal meaning But if you intentionally use it in a manner to mislead those seeking legal counsel to believe that you are a qualified and licensed lawyer, you may run afoul of the law. The same is true of “Dr.” and medicine.

I have a friend who holds pot for 2 of his married friends, so it has happened at least twice.

Does the friend smoke as well, or are they straight but willing to help out a buddy?

(It would make a LOT more sense to me if a fellow “head” was willing to stash some savage roscoe for a smoking partner than if someone who never touched the stuff was the one doing the holding)

::::hijack:::: I heard a report on medicinal marijuana in Israel on NPR today. They introduced their guest, “head doctor” of a hospital in Israel…I laughed out loud for a couple seconds.

I recently read that there is a company in Israel that has bred a marijuana strain that contains no THC, so smokers don’t get high, but they still get the anti-nausea effects often associated with cannabis usage.
