The "old south"...yeah, I could see your point, but today? I don't know the numbers but it seems to me that it is fairly common and not nearly as taboo as it once was. Then again, maybe it has always been this common around here but the older generation just hid it better or I was too young to notice?



It's not taboo in the South for the most part, our local governments just continue to dupe our older, doddering citizens and the evangelizing idiots into believing weed is the debil in order to give their respective law enforcement organizations a justification for their constantly ballooning budgets and overreach of powers.

The police unions are indeed an outspoken opponent to the end of prohibition, as indeed they were during alcohol prohibition. What needs to happen is that a portion of tax revenue from legal sales go towards police departments or pensions. It is a compromise that I don't like, but sometimes you have to grease the wheels to get things moving.
