well i think they'd be expelled at that point. :p

No, ever heard of diplomatic immunity?

um, yes i have. do you know what that means?

I thought they could only be expelled for spying or very serious felonies. Are they most often recalled after a situation like that by their own country?

yes, most often they are recalled. but they can be declared persona non grata for any reason really. for suspicion of spying, any crime really, or as a protest against their home country. diplomatic immunity is just immunity from prosecution by the host country.

You'd be invaded and arrested for crimes against humanity. Hell, you committed genocide against 50% of the population!

by the way i never have smoked weed but that was the best explanation for my topic.

Amsterdam i believe is legal to smoke weed, so if you go there and smoke and come back to U.S and a goverment job ask you if you ever have done anything illegal such as smoking weed. do you say Yes i have but it was not illegal i was in another country.

how do you handle that and do they say oh ok i guess you didnt do anything illegal inside our country.

iirc, it is still illegal to do drugs such as weed in amsterdam, it is just not enforced

I think if you smoked in another country the US government wouldn't care. However, I don't think that excuse would work with a perspective employer.

alright i guess thats weed only but what about other things in other countries, hookers and other stuff. i guess still would deal with the whole if you gamble in a state that is legal then you did nothign wrong, like the bunny farms and stuff they are legal.

I hope you aren't going into any type of security function. It appears someone could wave a bag of weed and a hooker at you and you'd photograph every document in Langley.
