The only reason they have made it federally illegal is because they cannot figure out a sufficent way to capture taxes on growers and be able to enforce it.

I'm not convinced the pharma lobby isn't partially responsible as well.

Nope, can't use evil weed for pain relief. Here, take this Oxycotin, oh it's safe, the FDA approved it!

You people are so simple.

Depends. Sure, you wouldn't want people operating heavy machinery or first responders blazing up. No different than alcohol, I wouldn't want someone under the influence putting others in danger.

No disagreement from me, but I’m not advocating for going to work high. That’s not even the problem though. The problem are people smoking on the weekends or something, then 3 weeks later getting fired because they failed a drug test. That’s BS in my mind. I could do cocaine and a few days later piss clean. Isn’t the same with weed. They can do cheek swab tests for weed and I think that’s what they should do, instead of urine and hair tests.

Some high paying jobs out there don't drug test and if they do they don't care about weed. It's legal in most states in one form or another anyway

---

Not in Louisiana though because too many people bought into the reefer madness, including our democrats who are supposed to be the pro weed group.

Yep. This is lost on them in their anger.

Same thing is true in many big cities.

I don’t believe it should be illegal, but damn if that smell isn’t annoying and everywhere you go at night.

went to vegas in the summer and fremont was almost unbearable. every other store was a cannibus store and homeless and mental patients everywhere.

i still dont think it should be illegal but jesus the shite stinks. should be similar to alcohol, cant have it in public.

its the law in most places.

They recently passed a regulation allowing on site consumption for the tourists. But I haven't smelled weed on the street since its been legal. I do smell it in my building.
