Man smokes pot at hospital to celebrate new baby

In a stunning example of stupidity, a man celebrated the birth of his new baby by lighting up a joint in the designated smoking area inside a Uniontown Hospital. (Uniontown is located in Pennsylvania, not far from Pittsburgh, PA.)
It's not clear how often this new father smoked marijuana, but his behavior seems to indicate he was a regular fan of the drug. One might argue that he would have to be a "stoner" to be dumb enough to light up inside a hospital.
Proponents of legalizing pot argue that it does no damage -- certainly less than regular cigarettes -- with no permanent effects. This new father is apparently living proof that pot use does have long-term effects. He was presumably not high when he chose to smoke a joint in the hospital's smoking area, yet he was obviously seriously lacking in common sense. Cigarettes may cause you (and those around you) to die a horrible death from cancer, but they don't usually cause stupidity.
Whether this man has always been sorely lacking in common sense is unknown. Perhaps he thought no one would notice or care at 3 a.m. Perhaps he thought no one would bother to report him. If so, his assumption was wrong on all counts.
According to WPXI News, Seargent Jonathan Grabiak said a nurse smelled marijuana when she took a cigarette break, reported it to security and a hospital security guard called police around 3:20 a.m.
Now, not only will this new father face dealing with a newborn, but he will also face drug charges.
Whether pot should be legal or not is still being debated. Legalizing it would certainly free up jail space, clear court dockets and give gangs one less thing to fight about, but it's clear from this case (and others like it) that pot may well have some kind of long-term effect, at least on some people.
Do you know anyone who seems to have been affected by smoking marijuana? Perhaps it takes a certain body chemistry or personality type to react badly. It is true, however, that stupidity is not restricted to those who smoke pot. Just sit at a street corner and watch traffic for while.
