Popular Post bluejets Posted February 15 Popular Post Share Posted February 15 People don't read the fine print surrounding these laws. I'm certain I saw where it is legal "if consumed in your own home" so that would put tourists, etc. open to the charges that were there previously. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I;m pretty sure most people who enjoy cannabis responsibly would happily settle for a "legal in the home" situation. I couldn't care less about tourists but cannabis friendly hotels would be a simple solution. There is no real need to be smoking it on street corners in the same way there is no need to drink alcohol in such places 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KhunLA Posted February 16 Popular Post Share Posted February 16 (edited) Any responsible person can indulge whenever they want, by just using a little common sense. That the harsh criminality of smoking a doobie has been removed, makes things easier for everyone. Nothing has really changed, except the price, depending how ignorant you are. It's simply cheaper now. Was easy enough to find and smoke before declassified. Not much has changed in the 55 yrs of me indulging, except the legality and quality of it. The last thing an 'honest' police officer wants to do, is waste his time processing a ganga smoker Edited February 16 by KhunLA 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too tiresome and messy. Real athletes do need to relax though but don’t know how they’d hide weed from screening. Tyson was using right through his career, albeit massive amounts of Charlie.
