That was when people snuck it and there wasn't a weed store on every corner.
Don’t Bogart that joint!..................
Weed (May peace be upon it) is not a drug, it’s a religion. And if an infidel slanders it, there is a fatwa against it.
I’ve heard the same about Oracle Park, where the San Francisco Giants play.
Don’t they already have “No Smoking” signs?
That’s only for cigarettes. Practically true.
Kathy Hochul must be grinning ear to ear, so proud of the mess she has created.
Puff - Puff - Pass
It’s canoeing
I’m not too upset about the legalization of weed but really they should have just made edibles legal so the rest of us wouldn’t be forced to smell it all the time
They won't share?
Regards,
Bummer that they have to get loaded just to face the day.
It’s really quite funny. For decades, it seemed like everyone smoked cigarettes. Restaurants, bars, on airplanes, in subway stations ... everywhere. And people tolerated it. If a non-smoker didn’t like it, they could move to a different location, ask to be seated in the “no smoking” section or just deal with it.
Then society got all worked up about cigarettes. Taxes went up, No Smoking signs went up. Cigarettes are not quite illegal, but pretty close. Society rejected tobacco to a large extent, and cigarette smokers are second class citizens now.
But they legalized cannabis, and now that stuff is everywhere. If you don’t like it, I guess you can move to a different location, or just deal with it.
Pretty amazing.
In my opinion, it’s all part of control (if they can “outlaw” cigarettes without passing a law, they can do pretty much anything) and also part of creating a passive society (so many people are medicated all the time, it’s, like, whatever dude).
NYS law only allows marijuana smoking where tobacco smoking is allowed. Neither is allowed at the US Open so they should have been fined for that. As for potency yes it’s more potent these days but that only means one would smoke less to get the same high.
I don’t care if people smoke weed. But we need stronger regulation of use of intoxicants in public. You should not be able to smoke weed as you are walking down the street (or swig out of a bottle of vodka while walking down the street either, for that matter). You should only be able to do it in designated areas or at home.
Canoodleing?.............
We were in Panama City Beach (FL) for the first time last weekend, and 1) weed smell was everywhere 2) one time the grown kids were in a general store and someone walked up to the counter requesting, “You got some weed today?”
Lucky for me, I went on to Dothan AL for my HS classmate visit, and the smell of azaleas was more evident there.
