False. The city could seize at a minimum products that violate consumer safety standards (eg packaged to look like candy) and also take enforcement action against people who distribute to children, allow smoking outside, etc. If they are going to maintain the legal fiction that “gifting” does not violate I-71, then they can also issue regulations about when, where and how “gifting” occurs.

Murder and carjacking rates are skyhigh in DC and your solution is to waste already valuable and scarce police resources on people who are selling and consuming a harmless plant. I hate the mayor but the one thing I'll give her credit for is that it is abundantly clear that MPD will not waste its time and resources busting cannabis sellers and users because a bunch of uptight old biddies on DCUM have their feefees hurt.

They will if the right people and businesses complain enough. And it’s not harmless - they are illegal cash businessed that attract crime and a bad element. [/quote]

Please explain what you mean by “the right people”…. [/quote]
