This amendment could have made recreational usage legal OR it could have made home growing legal BUT NOT BOTH.
It certainly could have been written as a general issue. Cannabis could have just been made legal. The tit for tat of usage, selling, growing, trading, gummies, smoking, etc. could all have just been covered as one legalization of the product. Instead the amendment had stipulations that made smoking it OK, but not growing it. What’s next, you can’t brew your own beer or make your own wine?
