And before you think this is just another “blue state vs red state” rant, hold up. The data tells a different story—one where public support for legalization regularly hits 70-80% even in the most conservative states, yet their legislatures act like it’s still 1937 and Harry Anslinger is whispering prohibition propaganda in their ears.
Chances are, one of your first weed purchases was a nickel bag. For just $5, you and your friends could change the course of an afternoon by sharing a joint: painting the town red, watching a movie, cracking jokes. For Manhattan native Nicholas Koury and owner of Nicklz dispensary near Time Square, the nickel bag […]

“To constitute a violation…marijuana in a vehicle must be of a usable quantity, in imminently usable condition, and readily accessible to an occupant.”

When it comes to impaired driving and the state’s open container law, a rolled and ready joint is more like a can of beer in giving police cause to search a car than a few crumbs of marijuana, according to the California Supreme Court.
The court’s reasoning: You can smoke a joint and drink a beer, but loose marijuana isn’t readily consumable.

“It goes back to the heart of criminalization of marijuana in certain communities. And those are communities that are communities typical of people of color.”
By Andrea Tinker, Alabama Reflector
The Alabama House of Representatives Thursday passed a bill that prohibits smoking or vaping marijuana in a car with children.
HB 72, sponsored by Rep. Patrick Sellers, D-Pleasant Grove, would make it a Class A misdemeanor, punishable by up to a year in jail, for those who smoke marijuana in a car with a child under 19.

“It’s about protecting the children, protecting every single child in the state of Alabama,” Sellers said after the meeting. “And that’s the motivation behind making sure that every child has the 100 percent ability to learn in the best environment that they can and keep them safe.”
Under the bill, individuals who are found to have smoked marijuana in the car with a child would be required to go
