[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Smart. In a couple years when the Montgomery County progressives finally realize that weed shops in front of their kids schools is not a good idea, it will be too late. [/quote]
Which weed shop is in front of a school? [/quote]
There is literally one directly across the street from Walter Johnson HS. There is also one 2 blocks from Bethesda Elementary School.

Maryland law does not allow liquor stores within 500 feet of schools, but that law does not apply to weed stores, although it should.

PG County understand very well that these shops are a nuisance, not an amenity and I applaud them for it.

Vape stores cannot be within 1/2 mile of MS or HS. But the definition of vape shop is limited to greater than 50% of the sales floor devoted to vapes. There are many ways to get around laws, including having product in the back room, with very small display case on the shop floor. It's very difficult to legally regulate what can be in a commercial shopping zone. It's not as simple as NIMBY or not close to my high school, especially in urban areas.[/quote]
