Elon Musk Puffs Joint, Tesla Stock Tanks

There are plenty of things in life that are legal but not smart for the CEO of a public company to engage in. Musk shows terrible judgement in many ways, which isn’t a good look when you’re entrusted with billions of dollars of shareholder money. It’s obvious he’s a huge narcissist who thinks he can now flip the bird to anyone he wants to, but there will be repercussions.

They smoked it in private property, which satisfies the law. Nothing about this was illegal.

As a matter of law, that's totally incorrect. In fact, in Gonzales v. Raich, the Supreme Court held that, under the Commerce Clause, the federal Controlled Substances Act permissibly prohibited the use of medically-prescribed marijuana grown entirely on the user's own property, and under the Supremacy Clause, California's state law allowing such use provided no protection against enforcement of the federal law.

Right. In this particular instance, it happened to be neither legal nor smart, which is an especially bad look.

No matter, Elon DeLorean is going to need something way stronger than marijuana by the time this is over.

If you have the time to watch 25 more minutes of this nonsense. I think this might have more to do with the stock going down than the one puff of cannabis.

The highlight of lameness in the video was during the 15th minute where Elon says there will be some neural-link innovation announced in a few months. Anyone want to take bets on whether this happens or not? And if it does, how underwhelming will it be?

Everyone who has replied touting the alleged protection of State law, specifically California’s law is uninformed and ignorant of the true reality on plant earth. Also, sorry folk ignorance is not an accepted defense congratulations! Especially the dip head who compares smoking grass to slavery. That is especially ignorant.

The Federal Govenment of the United States of America can and does convict and incarcerate individuals for the possession, consumption or sale of Marijuana. Period, bottom line and end of story. One of my closest acquaintances was convicted in federal court for this and spent time in a Herlong Federal Penitentiary. He celled next to several other prominent people, celebrities and professional athletes who thought they were above the federal law. No pun intended, but Federal Law trumps State Law.

Oh, and they can seize your assests too. They can take them and are not required to return them. In fact, they use your assests and money to buy more DOJ and DEA helicopters and other drug enforment assets.

Get a clue people. Don’t be stupid. Stay out of Federal Court and don’t take chances with going to a Federal Penitentiary.
