I have ZERO faith that DC will enforce the limited rules that would be required with a further loosening of Marijuana laws.
I personally do not smoke outside and would prefer that others avoid this as well. I also believe it is unnecessary to use police resources enforcing a trivial "crime" such as smoking marijuana in public. Whine about it to yourself and move on with your day.
Some folks were smoking marijuana outside our building last week. We asked them not to and they refused. So with the super's help we turned the hose on them. It's hard to smoke a soggy joint.

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....

What matters is not evicting a poor family over marijuana.

I am concerned this next one will be more of the same. Voters need to THINK before they vote.

So you would like the little babies in public housing (where cigarette smoking indoors is illegal) to breathe in pot smoke through the air vents and halls into their little pink lungs? You're a gem!
Little babies in public housing are already being fed unhealthy food, not getting enough sleep or exercise, etc., so it is obvious that their health is not a priority, so stop to with that line of argument.
I think adults should be able to do as they please in regards to marijuana, but I did not vote for the referendum because it was badly written and not well thought out (one ounce of weed is considered personal use and not a dealers stash?).
