Gonna go out on a limb and guess the people that own prime business real estate in NOLA probably already are.

Because the 10,000,000 shithole liquor stores in Louisiana is such a beautiful thing to look at
Or the construction material and blown truck tires that line the interstate and the side of the road. The dead coyote just sitting in the road for weeks at a time that DOTD refuses to come scoop up. The dilapidated 100 year old houses in the ghetto that's the first thing that people see when entering Baton Rouge across the bridge. Those are pleasing to look at as well.

I really don't get this guy's beef with weed shops being the hill he wants to die on of being the thing that makes Louisiana look trashy. There's plenty of other shite that makes this state trashy. Literally, trash makes this state trashy (on the side of the road).

You're thinking of the big vape rigs that trashy folks use that creates massive flavored clouds. They do this for attention. It's very trashy.

I'm talking about a slender weed pen that resembles an ink pen that barely has a cloud.

It is not trashy.

Trashy people enjoy it just like wealthy, classy people enjoy it. Just like alcohol.

Grape blunts with midgrade = Busch Light 40 oz and done in public.

High end indica in a vape pen or edibles = Macallan 15 and done in private


Smoking cigarettes makes you stink, and is trashy for that and other reasons, like the deleterious health effects. Most respectable people that do it hide it as much as possible.

What about smoking weed makes it different (ignoring, for the moment, the good things that come from smoking weed)? I'm asking genuinely.

It's made a mess of our low income earners. They collect UI and stay home, smoke weed on the taxpayer.

Outside of that, it's really not trashy. I don't care of low class people use weed.

The fake outrage at stuff trashy people do on this board is hilarious. Everyone does something trashy.

I don't think the trashy argument has any merit at all. It's beside the point.

The real point is the government should have never been able to make it illegal at all in the first place.

"ThankS God" meaning religious conservatives are the reason this will not pass.
God will be the excuse of whatever PR firm does the hatchet job, but the real reason will be the alcohol, po po and private prison lobbies.

"Things are bad, let's make them even worse" seems like a poor strategy for improvement.

Again, I'm against criminalizing weed. I just hope weed doesn't become a part of everyone's daily life in seeing it, smelling it, etc.
That makes me a horrible retrograde to all the enlightened folks on the OT.

Agree, I would hate for them to displace the payday loan shops.

Legal or not, an employer can still test you and can choose not to hire you.

For one, you're hyper focused on one aspect of THC consumption when in reality dispensaries deal with many forms. It's ironic because you don't seem to give a shite about the 100s of pharmacies in LA pilfering opiates, the 1000s of liquor stores on every corner, and lets not forget the dollar general popping up on every corner. physical dispensaries will be the least of societies concern.

Your comment wasn’t funny nor was it witty and the fact that you had to explain it twice should be further proof


It’s ok man just do better next time

The current vape shop in every strip mall will just instantly pivot IMO.

Weed is not a drug, it is a naturally occurring plant that can be cultivated. And just because YOU'RE not OK with it doesn't make you the arbiter of what other people are OK with.
