A woman in Yaletown, a rich neighbourhood of downtown Vancouver, Canada is outraged that a formerly illegal pot shop Weeds Glass and Gifts is now applying for their license given the recent legalisation. Read the full story here.
Whether or not you agree with applying for licenses, you have to be against these typical ignorant and over-emotional mothers who are hysterical with reefer madness. Some of these people seem like paid shills, but others are just genuinely misdirected. Little do they even know about how the endocannabinoid system is essential for pregnancy, bonding, and development.
But I digress, these people are publicized by the media to continue the long prohibition of cannabis. She is furious that they "openly flout city bylaws" by selling cannabis and allowing users to smoke outside.
The worst part is she doesn't just care about the exposure to second hand smoke to children, but mostly to...
the exposure of youth in the neighbourhood to the cannabis culture, which she erroneously calls smoking culture.
Anti-cannabis crusaders before her have got their foot in the door by crying exposure of smoke to children. Now that they're in, it's slowly morphing to, not exposing youth to the cannabis knowledge or culture at all.
