[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good lord, who cares?

Kids under 21 aren't even allowed to buy pot, why does it matter if it's being sold to legal, consenting adults in the vicinity?

If stores are selling to underage kids, that's a completely separate problem and can be dealt with separately without throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Nobody flips their lid over restaurants serving cocktails or supermarkets selling beer near schools, why would pot be any different?[/quote]

I care. My kids go to school there. I don’t want the school to have to divert scarce resources from learning to expanded supervision and security at dismissal if this application is approved. I don't want my kids to no longer be able to play outside or go outside for lunch during the school day. I don’t want to deal with double parked cars and couriers picking up delivery orders. I don’t want more traffic on that block leading to more frustrated drivers and increasing the risk that kids get hit crossing the cross walks on the way to the metro. I don’t want the allure of cannabis around impressionable young kids.

This fantasy doom scenario only exists in your head. Land the helicopter Karen, you kids will be fine. If you clutch those pearls any harder you'll need to get them surgically removed.[/quote]
