100 locations? That reminds me of when Washington legalized it a decade ago and they thought it would be a good idea to limit them to only a certain number per district. The prices were so high at the shops because of that that most people stuck to their illegal hookup. LCB quickly realized the whole thing would fail unless they expanded access.
There's got to be a good middle ground. Seems like there's a smoke shop every block in my area (outside Boston). I highly doubt the demand is that high. And they're all chain places, too. That space could be used for more local and more useful businesses.
We have 14 dispensaries for our city of 55k (6sq miles) and there are regularly lines out the door. Demand is fine.
I personally can't stand small shops. They regularly lack online shopping and have higher prices. Sunnyside, our local chain actively hires those from the queer community, have consistent products, and offer the best prices.
Fuck the feds.
Grow your own, smoke your own.
I'm smoking weed about it.
Not really possible for people in apartments. Or even just people who rent houses. Which is why it needs to be legal. They also have medical needs and deserve to use it recreationally.
It's completely possible in apartments. Tent, light and air extractor connected to hepa filter removes majority of the smell. A small tent (60cm x 60cm x 1.2m) manages a plant or two.
Unless the landlord says you shouldn't do it.
I don't see why you're so against people being able to purchase it if they want to.
Not all apartments are rented. Am not against the sale or purchase; just the mis-information that you cant grow it yourself in a small apartment.
If you don't rent it, it's a condo. Not an apartment.
The world is bigger than the US. My point remains.. Don't spread the false narrative that you can't grow your own in a small abode. Thanks.
Okay? That doesn't change the definitions of apartments and condos.
I said nothing about a "small abode." I literally was talking about renting, which is why I said "apartments" and "rent houses."
