You have to have an appointment and good hybrid with like a 27 THC level is $38.00 per 1/8!!!
What a monopoly! Mass is legal for recreational sales as of July 1st.
I imagine there will be a lot of cross border buying, which will be legal.
So Connecticut loses out on all the tax dollars and those of us trying to obey the law will still pay double, triple or quadruple the prices! Thanks to zero leadership from our Governor.
Bummer.

Well, at least it's a step in the right direction.

Cross border buying will be legal? Excellent! Massachusetts is pretty close.

Keep on the sunny side.

Low THC/CBD oil isn't the same as legalized medical marijuana.
Low THC/CBD products are things like hemp.

People have known for thousands of years that Marijuana is Good Medicine.

In the last 75 years Religious Wackos and Politicians got involved and declared it Toxic and Dangerous.

But it's still Good Medicine.

And people are starting to realize that Religion and Politics are Toxic and Dangerous.

Pardon me, but when you say: "Religious Wackos and Politicians" I think that you really must include racism in that mix. And in fact I think that history is now showing that religion took a back seat to racism in the era when it all began.

Harry J. Anslinger, the Commissioner of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Narcotics under Nixon gave a lot of speeches on his racism. So it is all recorded for posterity.

Google his speeches on drugs and you will be shocked at the hatred dripping from that man.

Actually, Anslinger died in 1975. He was in his 80's when Nixon was in office. Are you sure he was Commissioner when Nixon was in office?

It is my understanding that he was the first Commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics. He served in that position from
August 12, 1930 – May 1962.

Under: Presidents Herbert Hoover, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and John F. Kennedy.

Harry J. Anslinger quotes:

"There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others."

"Marihuana leads to pacifism and communist brainwashing"

"Reefer makes darkies think they're as good as white men."

"Marijuana is the most violence-causing drug in the history of mankind."

"the primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races."

"Marijuana is an addictive drug which produces in its users insanity, criminality, and death."
