Well I just saw this in USA Today.
A more subtle, oblique approach…but an anti ganja diatribe as well.

Hey, it takes a lot of work to keep up the facade! You’re talking about a medical-miracle plant versus tobacco and alcohol killing millions of people per year around the world…it’s not easy to brainwash that away

good news in VT
Montpelier, VT: The odor of burnt marijuana emanating from a motor vehicle is not a determinative factor as to whether sufficient probable cause exists to conduct a search, according to a ruling by the Vermont Supreme Court. The possession of small quantities of marijuana is legal in the state.
Justices determined that the smell of burnt cannabis alone, absent any evidence of driver impairment, did not justify the state’s decision to seize and search the defendant’s vehicle.
The Court opined, “The seizure, aimed at immobilizing the plaintiff’s vehicle while the officer sought a search warrant, was essentially based solely on the trooper’s initial detection of the faint odor of burnt marijuana, which did not, in and of itself, create fair probability that marijuana would be found in the vehicle.”
The ruling reverses a lower court decision. The case is Zullo v. Vermont.

Whooops, maybe back to the drawing board?
What are the odds that the states currently formulating their own new
cannabis regulations will learn anything from this?

Right on point @Muleskinner! I’m afraid home/craft growers will be muscled out of the whole legalization effort by Corporate growers and big pharma. Stay woke my brothers and sisters.

that’s outrageous, they’re using education funds (for treatment & prevention) for political billboards.
will be interesting to see the effects of legalization in another 10 years - I think it will drive a migration of people to legal states from backward ones. Similar to the 60’s and 70’s when everybody moved to California
