Neither with me when I heard it. Not all JA's smoke or have smoked ganga.
Too often I have been assumed to be from JA and have thus smoked the stuff.

What is even worst about Ms Harris is her knack of making a rush to judgment.
Case in point, she was quick to make the fake attack on the gay guy on Empire a story about lynching when the police had not yet completed their investigation.
She should resign from the Senate as well as the Booker fellow. Poor judgment for persons holding such influential positions.
