re: Marijuana becoming socially acceptable

I never said you weren't a good parent. I'm simply pointing out that it's not the world's responsibility to monitor their use of a completely legal product for the sake of you not having to explain it to your kid.

---

Right now it’s not completely legal, although it should be. With legalization there needs to be some stipulations, like doing it in designated areas, privacy of your own home, etc. That’s all I’m saying. Be mindful of others.

It's completely legal where I live, and there are stipulations as to where you can or can't do it. But in the privacy of your own home is just fricking stupid.

There will always be things in this world that people do that you don't like. If what their doing is legal and just hurts your delicate sensibilities, that's your problem. That's called living in a society. Get the frick over it.

I get annoyed when parents bring their small, unruly children onto airplanes or into nice restaurants. But I've never advocated that parents leave their kids at home when they travel or want to go out to eat because they should be mindful of my feelings.

Also not a fan of exposing others to second hand smoke of any kind.

when you are around someone who is smoking marijuana, the smoke gets into your system too. How much of it gets in depends on how close the person is, how many people are smoking and how much, how long you spend near them, and how much ventilation there is in the space. But research is clear that cannabinoids, the chemicals that cause the “high,” get into the bodies of people nearby — including children.

This is not good. Besides the fact that we don’t want children getting high, or exposed to the dangers of inhaled secondhand marijuana smoke, there is the additional concern about long-term effects on the brain. While research is still ongoing, there is evidence to suggest that when youth and young adults (whose brains are still developing) are exposed to marijuana, it may have permanent effects on executive function, memory, and even IQ...

As legal use of marijuana grows more common, we need to create the same kinds of rules and laws we’ve created to protect people from secondhand tobacco smoke.

Just because something is legal doesn’t mean it’s safe. And when we make choices that have risks, it’s not fair to impose those risks on other people — especially children, and especially when they could literally be harmed for the rest of their lives.

Exposure to second-hand marijuana smoke leads to cannabinoid metabolites in bodily fluids, and people experience psychoactive effects after such exposure. Alignment of tobacco and marijuana smoking bylaws may result in the most effective public policies. More research is required to understand the impact of exposure to third-hand smoke and the health effects of long-term exposure to second-hand smoke.

Does Santa still being your kids presents if so that makes you a lying mofo and a truth telling cannabis consumer is way better than a liar.

Public consumption isnt a widespread thing.

yes it is

I smell it on the streets of every bit city I visit

quote:

If there are stipulations and they are not abiding by those rules, then what they are doing is not legal, regardless of my “delicate sensibilities”.

---

The only people I've seen smoking in public are the homeless and white trash.

We have cannibis cafes and on site useage. I think you should be able to smoke in public, at bars etc.

It's up to parents to protect children. Do not take your kid places where it occurs.

Yes, wonderkid smelling weed in a "big city" definitely means it's widespread.

quote:

---

Mostly my pen but I'm always mindful of others.

Most people are. The fear of cities being overwhelmed by smoke is ridiculous.

That’s all I’m saying. Enjoy your herb, brah.

I just do edibles. Snowcaps. It's discrete.
