(1,438 posts)There's three pot stores within walking distance of my house. Plenty more elsewhere. Society here hasn't collapsed, indeed you'd hardly notice that pot was legal. Hardly a big deal.
Red AmeriKKKa sure is a shithole country. Seems it's because Jesus, or at least all of the assholes who pretend to speak for the nailed bastard demigod.

(1,438 posts)you may not be able to buy that much in a single visit, unless you were a good customer and could afford it - pot is expensive when taxed. Re-selling or re-distributing MIGHT be considered a problem it it were to happen, but the authorities have bigger worries with other stuff.
