Bro it’s outside.

FYI although it’s not enforced a lot smoking anything is banned in NYC parks

Haha. The stigma around weed. C’mon. You can’t drink in the park, so you shouldn’t be able to smoke weed. Nothing worse than walking around with your kid and smelling that shit everywhere.

I see what you did there

literally suck it up

If you think u/diegoforallneighbors is missing the plot, imagine what the people who are writing this are missing.

This is illegal? Enforcement is totally different.

Roaches and weed are both typically natural and biodegrade as such. They're nothing like cigarette filters.

Not in Providence but An Unlikely Story is a really cool little bookstore. If you’re kids ever read the Diary of Wimpy Kid books, the author owns this store. They have all genres, not just kids and a really good little cafe

If people start leaving roaches everywhere like people do with cigarette butts, that would be annoying AF. That said, I’m pretty confident that’s not going to be an issue.

Your post history indicates you’re a pervert.

I'm a massive stoner and I'm definitely cool with this. Weed is super stanky and I don't think it's cool to subject everyone in public to that, but especially at a park or whatever.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

Just smh at WPRI's attempt at "journalism."

>Providence residents appear split on the city’s decision. Alex Tavares believes the ordinance takes away from the legalization of the drug.

Oh, they do? Have you done some kind of survey? Because it sure looks like you just talked to two people, one in favor, one against. So you have no idea really what the pulse of Providence residents is.

I'm going to come smoke every day by your window

Spot on after we ban people smoking in their own cars let's ban people from smoking in their homes too

Heartleaf in Federal Hill just opened.

Yes to RiffRaff, Books on the Square, Symposium and 20 Stories.

Paper Nautilus does a good selection for second hand books, just be aware as the people who run it are kind of snobby and arrogant, especially if you’re looking for something in particular and they deem it “lowbrow”. You’re best off going to Books on The Square which is nearby and is run by very friendly people.

Indeed this is precisely what I was trying to get at in a diplomatic and charitable way because I believe that to be a generally constructive way of doing business. I think you’ll get a kick out of our website.

Thank you! www.diegoforallneighbors.com

I went to one in Hartford & extremely recommend it if you find one around. Making a good playlist was key!

Oh look another reason to criminalize poor people and black youth since we took a big one away with legalization.

I think you’re missing the plot a bit. Usually ordinances like this and limiting cigarette smoking are very selectively enforced based on race and class. More often than not, this is just a vehicle to harass the homeless.

The argument for this on a health risk basis is a weak one. Secondhand smoke from cigarettes or pot in an open space is an annoyance to people, but it’s hardly a serious health risk.

Cigarettes aren’t allowed in parks. It’s not really enforced very well, but it’s been on the books for years

People are still gonna do what they are gonna do, they did it when weed was completely illegal they will now
