My cousin is in law enforcement in CO. I wish I could show you his FB feed. It’s not just an upside if money to build schools. Many young families are unhappy at what they see in their neighborhoods.

DC now smells like pot, bottom line and nobody seems that interested in enforcing the rules as we agreed they be modified. Therefore, I will not be voting for any further loosening of the rules until those we have agreed upon are actually enforced. I have ZERO faith that DC will enforce the limited rules that would be required with a further loosening of Marijuana laws.

Honestly though, my quibble is that I thought they would actually.enforce the requirement in the referendum that people.smoke privately. Also sounds like pot smokers in DC are having trouble respecting basic busing covenants and civility. Until the city makes progress with that...why loosen restrictions more? #fooledmeonce
Yes, I voted to decriminalize. Feel like a dumbass now.

Alternatively they will be grappling with a growing population of perpetually stoned people being a nuisance and the long term health problems associated with heavy pot use. Between marijuana and opioids we will probably see an escalation of the homeless and begging population.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire....
