I’ve been expecting this for awhile. Not saying it’s a good idea or a bad idea, but it makes no sense for so many states to say it’s legal and yet have it remain a federal crime.
Before arriving in ATL I had never met so many users. I joke about it being the state flower of GA because I never seem far from the odor. Try having a relationship with someone addicted to weed or handling the disruption of someone selling at work. I had no opinion when I was young and Libertarians were pushing their pot legalization narrative in colleges. Since I didn’t partake it didn’t seem to effect me. I am a live and let live type but I am tired of contact highs just because I am out shopping for groceries. Your responsible drunkenness doesn’t effect me. You being LOUD in public exposes me to your drug use and effects my well-being. Hard NO from me.
In the past, there have been many stories on Free Republic about marijuana legalization. And quite a few people here are in favor of legalizing marijuana. This issue is one on which conservatives here are really split on.
