But, it's legal!


It's legal to possess certain amounts of it. It is not legal to smoke it walking down the sidewalk! How is this so difficult for you??


Legal is legal. No one bothers with their finer points of law.


Federal law prohibits it in all 50 states, plus DC.

It is not legal. Ask your friends who hold federal employment.

What mess? Lol the smell of weed? 100x better than the “good old” republicans that chain smoke Marlboro reds still because it’s AMERICAN!

It is also a gateway drug to fentanyl for these people.

Walking by or behind someone smoking pot doesn’t make me cough, my clothes and hair don’t smell like it for the rest of the day. In my neighborhood some of it actually smells pretty good. Never could say that about cigarettes!


Try living in a condo, apartment or townhouse where your neighbors smoke pot regularly. Even outdoors, on a patio or balcony. You'll change your tune. It won't "actually smell pretty good" when it permeates your home, furniture, clothing and the air you breathe. Pot smoke absolutely can seep through walls, shared attic space, anything, and neighbors' homes where walls, floors or ceilings adjoin will start to stink. And you cannot paint walls or clean upholstery enough to get the f**k RID of it. So enjoy your high-horse "well, walking by someone smoking pot isn't so bad!" crap but know that as soon as you get a regular weed smoker as a neighbor, you are going to change your tune.


I’m sorry but you are unhinged. This wasn’t even a thing when everyone smoked everywhere all the time. You sound unhinged.

People did not vote to have police not enforce the laws. It's still illegal to smoke in public. It's illegal to smoke while driving.

Talk to the cops.


Mind your own business. Cops put people in jail and nobody deserves to be locked up for smoking anything let alone a plant.

You people are so dramatic. I live in a state where it’s legal with dispensaries and the overwhelming smell everywhere in public is just not a real problem

This is what’s crazy to me. There’s even a crackdown in vaping, which is also gross but less so than weed. There are even ads about how bad vaping is but nothing at all about marijuana.
