If you seriously think no one prior to 2012 had marijuana in their system then I have no idea what to tell you.
Also left out the discussion: most of those users also had alcohol in their system.

I'm sure it was the weed they smoked a week earlier that caused it though

I chatted with some people in West Bridgewater Ma., WB has one of the most popular supermarket chains in New England, a Market Basket in West Bridgewater Ma.
More interesting the good folks in West Bridgewater told me of local culture, there are 2 other MBs in the surrounding communities, however, the West Bridgewater MB location is considered by out-of-towners to be the best and most popular of the 3 MBs stores. With the Ban on local marijuana stores, the WB supermarket location will not have to abut a POT shop.

Now next door Brockton has a MB and the 'City of Champions' has approved local POT shops. Does anyone want to bring their little Tots to the supermarket to buy Corn Flakes with a POT shop next to the supermarket?

1) It's the newest of the three.
2) MB almost always own the malls/strips they're located in, so they can decide what they're next to in most all locations.

Considering the ones in Leominster and Lowell continue to be packed despite being adjacent to a divey liquor stores, I'd venture to say few will care.

Believe it or not, a large swath of the public ... including those who votes no on q4 ... do not fear marijuana or associate it with a crime the way you do.

Excellent point! Taking it one step further, stoners often prefer food products that are easy for the store to stock like chips and cookies versus higher maintenance offerings like perishables.

I forget specifics: West Bridgewater PD is often named as the town that annually gives out the highest number of traffic tickets of all communties in the entire State of Massachusetts. Or per capita. Something like that. I have seen officers in cruisers parked at the exit ramp of route 24, observing drivers coming off the state highway. As a classic Boston Driver, you dont mess with roads in West Bridgewater.

The point being, POT using drivers would be wise to stay away from West Bridgewater. They are gonna pinch ya, in a jail ya will go.

Told ya they were strict in West Bridgewater.
The WB PD record is 100 drivers stopped in 4 hours, Lets hope for a record breaking year on the WB roads
