Um, yeah; duh. Because they legalized it, idiot.

It’s still smoking! That’s not allowed

I was in NYC this weekend and the smell was everywhere. It was pretty gross.

Smoking cigarettes is banned. Weed is less clear. The statutes are often written to be specific to lighted tabaco products. So, it's legal and fun and everyone gets to enjoy.

It’s disgusting. The fact that my young kids, elementary age, even know what weed smells like is absurd.

Also, the prevalence of alcohol culture is such a red herring. Outside of actual alcoholics, I’ve never seen anyone in DC walking down the sidewalk at 10am swigging from an open container, yet I’ve now seen dozens and dozens of people smoking a joint or vaping at that hour. “It’s not addictive.” Then why are people getting high at all hours every day? And most people are not drinking when driving either, yet hotboxed cars are everywhere, again, all day long.

No. Sorry. That’s not true. You’re not allowed to smoke weed in the metro. There is no smoking allowed in the metro.

No! They’ll move somewhere else and vote for the same nonsense because they want to prove how ‘progressive’ they are!

No way. You can have a nightly drink or two in your condo and I won’t even know. But your nightly weed smoke gets into my condo daily.

The weed is definitely more annoying to neighbors.

What if it's medicinal? Are you saying I can't take my medication? I have a medical card.

I can’t even enjoy my backyard late in the evening anymore. The smell was coming from the other side of the fence. Do foxes and deer smoke?

That is a completely different issue and you know it.

Why can't their be laws in place regarding smoking weed? Just like they did with smoking cigarettes? Why can't that happen? Why can't we treat weed just like we do with cigarettes and alcohol? Yes, it can be legal but must have all the restrictions?

That will take a really long time. It took a long time to pass laws for cigarettes and it would be the same for weed.

Not going to happen any time soon.

Also, this would likely punish people of color more than other races, and that would never fly in the DMV. Not #Equitable.

Thank you for pointing this out. The supposed argument that weed smokers try to make -- "But, but, but alcoholllll is legal!" is such nonsense.

If my neighbor is drinking in his home, I can't see, hear or smell it. It has zero effect on me inside my home. But if my neighbor is toking, especially frequently, it absolutely affects me. Same would be true with tobacco, frankly, though weed seems worse than tobacco for permeating everything.
