Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!
FBI director James Comey said this week that the bureau may be forced to change its drug policy because the U.S. could not find enough programmers who did not use marijuana to fight cyber crime.
Hahahahahahaha!!
“I have to hire a great work force to compete with those cyber criminals and some of those kids want to smoke weed on the way to the interview,” Comey explained.
The FBI was in the process of “grappling with the question right now” of how to change the drug policy, Comey said. The current policy forbids hiring anyone who has used marijuana within a three year period.
3 years?
That leaves little more than Mormons and some old, blue-haired ladies.
Hahahahahahaha!!
Comey insisted that people should not let their pot use stop them from seeking a job at the agency after one attendee said that a friend had decided not to apply over the policy.
Um... what makes this EXPERT LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY think people who smoke the EVIL WEED even get off the couch long enough to do anything but get a pizza?
Work?
What about amotivational syndrome???
And, really, what self-respecting stoner is going to go work for the FBI?
They are the enemy, at least until the US Federal Government pulls it's head out of its ass and relegalizes marijuana.
Dumbshits.
You'd think a detective agency would have figured this out before now.....
UPDATE
It has been brought to my attention that there are plenty of Mormons AND old, blue-haired ladies smoking the evil weed now.
I stand corrected.

UPDATE #2
FBI Director James Comey backpedals after marijuana joke irks senator
Two days after he joked about the FBI's recruitment being hamstrung by the agency's policy on marijuana use, FBI Director James Comey was forced to reassure a Senate panel on Wednesday that he was not, in fact, advocating pot smoking.
On Monday, Comey was discussing the agency's new prioritization of cyber crimes, and he lamented the fact that many applicants with excellent cyber credentials might be dissuaded by the FBI's ban on hiring anyone who's smoked marijuana in the last three years.

That joke didn't sit well with Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., who pressed Comey during Wednesday's hearing on whether he was signaling his support for marijuana use.
"Do you understand that that could be interpreted as one more example of leadership in America dismissing the seriousness of marijuana use?" Sessions asked. "And that could undermine our ability to convince young people not to go down a dangerous path?"
Republican.
Jeff Sessions.
Reefer Mad.
Nuff said.
