When I picked up the news last week, it surprised me to find out that they passed a law to legalize recreational marijuana.
I was pretty high in the local government, however I had heard no news coming down that they were seriously considering legalizing recreational marijuana in the upper echelon of the state government.
I’m not against legal recreational marijuana, however I didn’t assume they had enough rules and guidelines to legalize it yet; Since I wasn’t part of that choice, I knew it would be best if I kept our mouth shut. When I heard a rumor that one of our local people was planning on growing marijuana now that it was okay, I stepped in. I wanted to make sure these people followed all the rules and regulations that went with growing either personal marijuana for use, or marijuana for sale. I talked to people who were above me in the government and wanted to get as much information from him about cannabis dispensaries and their laws and rules. He sent me a packet full of information. I had enough information about cannabis dispensaries and the legalities of recreational marijuana that I would have studying material for the next year. I can only hope that there is enough security at the marijuana dispensaries, that it eliminates my fear of having young kids getting the marijuana in their hands. I didn’t have these fears when they had legal, medical marijuana dispensaries. I guess it is just the difference between the legal, medical marijuana dispensary and it being a legal recreational marijuana store.
