Yes you can obtain a medical.  Provide you the state you reside in has legalized weed and your AME's practice is also within the same state.

I suggest you review Part 67 of the FARs.

Just read part 67.  Failed drug test or refusal to take one is grounds for denial. You can smoke weed just don't get hit for a drug test. If you use it and get caught jail or fine. So no you can't. Does not matter where you live. Whomever said that is an idiot.

about smoking pot. NOTHING. your AME doesn't care how much weed you smoke unless he suspects addiction. in other words, don't tell your AME you're addicted to weed. NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT TESTING OR ANY OF THAT OTHER BULLSH*T WITH COMMERCIAL FLYING GODDAMN YOU F**KING PEOPLE ARE F**KING STUPID.

sorry

Smoking weed is perfectly ok.  Keep doing it.  Tell your AME, tell your employer.  You know more than those pesky FAA types.  What could go wrong?

you think the FAA should drug test private pilots because the FAA already requires drug testing programs for all commercial operations.
