  1. Hey Everyone! Wow! Everyone certainly has a lot to say about this. As, I can definately understand. Here's my viewpoint: It doesn't matter how many grams someone has, it is still wrong. I'm not judging him, I'm just trying to say that I don't know if I would try to make a wrong less of a deal based on how many grams he had. You can slam someone's finger in the door, or you can still slam there whole hand in the door-you still did wrong and they are still going to be in pain. Okay, maybe that was a weird example, but hopefully you can understand what I'm trying to say. I think it's neat how everyone can have a different viewpoint and everyone, for the most part, is so understanding. Keep it up! I am disapointed in Tom for doing this, he shouldn't have done it. I would be just as upset if he was in my family. I don't think excuses should be made. But, if he is going through a tough time in his life, the press is kind of making things harder. But, that is the life you lead when you become famous, and the press is only doing there job. Have a great day everyone! Laura Duke:D

    tom caught with weed?

    I just had add my two cent to all this. I'm sorry Kay, but your pushing my button by keep putting Tom down. He's a human being who just happen to make a couple mistakes. No one is prefect. But in the last two days you have done nothing but bad mouth him . You truely don't know the whole story, but yet you have made yourself judge and jury. Have you heard his side of story. No, your taking the side of the media. Who have on so many different levels have blown stories out of proportion on different people. I am a huge Tom Wopat fan and to hear someone talk as bad about him as you have Kay makes me sick to my stomach. Tom is the most sweetest, kindest guy. He would give you the shirt off if his back if he thought it would help you out. Tom is amazing and I'm sorry that you'll never get the chance to know that. I have to stop know before I say something I shouldn't.

    Well Laura, when such opinions such as Kay calling him,"bad news" or "major trouble". The man has worked hard all his life to get to the point where he is now! I mean all the press was there to do was basically ruin and destroy every dream he had...which goes for all actors/actresses as well. She didn't really say it as an opinion she said it as HE IS, which I take it to mean that basically she was trying to say it was the facts....she might not have and i could have mis-interpreted as I normally do. Tho' I agree strongly with DaisyMae. No one on here can judge him or condemn him in any manner for something they have done that could be as minor or as bad as the mistake he made. And seriously...it's like BoJames said, he got caught with 1.2 grams...big whoop...that's not even enough to really worry with. Who knows...someone could have planted it on him or he could be on the stuff....we'll never know the truth of it as the press doesn't want to give us the truth hardly at all. Alls we can do is pray for him, and pray that if he is on it he gets help and gets things straightened out. He is a really talented man on broadway and would hate to see his talent go to waste. "Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven." Luke 6:37

    See now thats the problem.He is NOT Luke Duke in real life people it's just a character he played but so many people can't get that in their heads.Now the media will take advantage of that and make Dukes look bad start implying all Dukes fans are potheads,stuff like that.

    Ok...well I will put my two cents in here too I guess... I am very sad this happened, and though I think he made some bad choices, I don't know anyone on Hazzardnet or elsewhere that hasn't done things that they regret. In Tom's case, it just gets publicized for the world to know about. I certainly don't condone it in any way, but NONE of us have a right to judge him for anything he did. And Kay I'm sorry, but I disagree with you... He is not "bad news" or "major trouble" You like most of us on here can not make a judgment like that based on what is publicized. For example, I think it was last summer Tom put a new roof on his step mom's house. It didn't make front news, but I think that is a nice thing for him to do. During his Dukes days, when the Hazard, KY mines collapsed, both Tom and John did a benefit concert to raise money for the families of the miners, and Tom himself put in 25,000 dollars extra to cover the concert expenses. Stuff like that is quickly forgotten. I am not saying he didn't make a mistake. But we don't have a right to judge him. We don't know why he is turning to alcohol or drugs but he is obviously hurting somehow and looking to make himself feel better. He needs our support, not our judgment. If you are like me and believe in God, take this to be a wake up call for us to pray for not ionly him, but others who are struggling with similar issues. Think what Uncle Jesse would do...would he be disappointed...sure....but he would love him and pray for him...and support him all he could. We Hazzardites should strive to do the same...

    Totally agree with Daisy. It isnt fair for you to start calling him things like that, a character is a character believe in him all you want. Tom is a real person, with real feelings and problems just like the rest of us. Kay, he got caught with 1.2 grams...jeez that's not even enough to make a joint to be honest with you. Not talking from experience but I know how big 1.2 grams is. Granted this could just be leftovers, whatever. Its not like he's got caught supplying anything, actually taking the stuff...there could be some underlying story behind this that the media know nothing about. Who knows and quite frankly who cares? The media put this stuff out because it causes a stir amoung people, thats why stars get harrassed as much as they do. Because we the public lap it all up. I hope that someone close to Tom sees this and starts to put him back on the right road. He has a great broadway career, all he needs is help sorting out whatever issues he has.
