Where I live it is only legal to sell if a person has seen a doctor and has been issued a “license “ to be able to buy it. Some other areas of the State of Colorado are both legal for medical and recreational use but, they leave it up to local city governments to decide. It’s been available so long here......it’s not even really an issue or problem for our city and it’s people. Nothing has changed in my opinion, people are still the same here. Marijuana really can help people with several different things and it’s all safe, non chemical and pure organic.....it’s actually safer than drinking soda when you really get down to it.
