Well here we go. Meds are Meds and that is well established. If the weed is for Med only and strictly controlled, OK.

However if the Weed is recreational then it fits in with the Recreational booze, call it what you want.
We lived on the West Coast. Weed is actually ruining a small town we lived in. Weed is prevalent, the cops are smoking it, the City councilmen smoke it. There are four dispensaries in town, it is rampant, the high School kids are smoking it on lunch break, we saw this, this is not hearsay. Already they are having major car wrecks in parking lots and slow speed zones, it is causing Chaos. We were in a program where we advised and tutored High School Students on how to get into college and how to find financial aid. It is a great program. Aspire is the name. We had boys and girls who were into the program and when they started the weed use,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, THEY DROPPED OUT.

Here in this lovely place, Recreational booze is already a problem, the drinking and driving is very popular, how does someone sit on a bar stool for two hours putting them down the hatch and then do they walk home? No, I do not think so, how many seniors do you see walking around long distances after the happy hours are over?
We have friends who just came here to find a home. This is their second trip. Now they are now thinking they will go elsewhere due to the EXCESSIVE DRINKING AND THE GOOFY DRIVERS. Do we need WEED to add to that misery?
