    I used to work 911/dispatch and nobody gave a shit about weed. It’s still not even broadly legal where I worked.

      Do you think people call 911 to report someone smoking pot? I doubt that has happened since the 90s.

      What happens on the street during police encounters and what people call you about are not the same thing.

        Paramedic x15 years. I have been called to a poison gas leak because someone’s dog got sprayed with a skunk.

        It happens all the time. The world is a very big place and not everyone is exposed to it. There’s plenty of adults who have a huge bias against cannabis, many of those have never seen, smelled, or sampled any before
