[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once cannabis is legalized at the federal level (like alcohol and tobacco), then it can (and will) be regulated like alcohol and tobacco.  Until then, all of the unregulated public consumption will continue to occur.   [/quote]
Why can’t it be regulated at the state level? Alcohol is regulated at state level to a certain extent.[/quote]

Actually, it’s regulated at both the federal and state level.  The 21st Amendment re-legalized alcohol at the federal level, which allowed states and local governments to regulate it as they saw fit.   Some counties (like Lynchburg, Tennessee), do not serve liquor by the drink.  In Pennsylvania, you can only purchase beer by the case, in stores that only sell beer.  Wine is sold with distilled spirits in a separate store. At the federal level, the BATF enforces federal alcohol tax laws.  Cannabis is still listed as a Schedule I narcotic at the federal level,which is absurd, given the fact that it now has proven medicinal uses.  All of the comments on this thread about the smell of cannabis everywhere in DC, and elsewhere are valid and useful.  The Cannabis industry needs to get on board with the citizens to impose stricter regulations on public consumption, just like alcohol and tobacco.  [/quote]
