California has defacto legalized it. It is for sale in more shops than Starbucks around here. All you need is $30 and to tell a Dr. you think it helps with stress or whatnot, and then you can shop at the corner store for it.

Where is the corresponding increase in addiction, violence, disorder and death in California from the time it went widely available in legal shops?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Really? Are you that clueless? You ask “Where is the corresponding increase ...”

Do you just skim by the many articles that show how these pot shops have created more crimes in the areas they are located? Locals are getting tired of them and are pressuring officials to run these dopers out.

Do you just skim by the absence of evidence that crimes have been created rather than simply relocated?

Are you so clueless as to predict disaster and not see that crime is down over the period that California defacto legalized it?

Neighbor complaints are anecdotal not evidence that crime is up due to pot shops.

Crime is down in California over the same time period that defacto legalization happened.

But some neighbors made complaints!!!!!

Delusional!
