There are several states that have legalized pot . If your a stoner just move to one of those states , you will have access to more drugs and be amongst your kind . Pretty simple really .

So, we demand that those whose lives could be radically improved by treatment with cannabis oil or marijuana should move to another state. We allow doctors to prescribe opioids that are destroying lives and killing more people today than car accidents. Yet we won't allow sick people medications that are safer than aspirin. Laws that affect what we do in our own homes that don't harm citizens around us are just plain wrong. When they withold treatments for sick people they are just outright evil.

I have a cabin in a remote area of the southwestern mountains in Colorado. Almost all of the full-time residents there are avid hunters and fishermen. We have made a number of close friends among them over the years. When it was legalized in Colorado, I asked a friend who is a hunting and fishing guide who also works as a Deputy for the Sheriff's Dept what kind impact it would have in the area(most of the full time residents wear several hats to allow them to live there year round). Without hesitation he said "None !". He elaborated and said that most of the locals don't really care what someone does privately as long as it's not harming anyone else, and that most of them like living in such a remote area because they are independent thinkers and more Libertarian than strictly conservative. He said the people that had been smoking weed all along could now do it without having to worry about it, and those that had never been into it weren't suddenly going to turn into potheads just because it was now legal, but that a few would probably try it just to see what it was and make up their own mind about it. Their department policy for years had always been one of "benign neglect"...they didn't go out looking to bust anyone as long as it wasn't creating a public problem. He felt it was pretty much a non issue for them. After two years, it appears he was correct...nothing seems to have changed there at all because of it being legalized.
