Bullshit laws in colorado
    #689359 - 10/15/13 12:59 PM (10 years, 5 months ago)

This new bill is some BULLSHIT.

IF they smell your weed, you can still get in trouble.  IF they see you using in your backyard/home through an open window or open anything, you can get in trouble.

These assholes are too controlling.

Heres the article.  Ban Marijuana Smell

Quote:

BR13-0736 Could Affect Private Medical Marijuana Patients

A recently proposed bill in Denver, CO “could make medicating at home illegal,” according to Americans for Safe Access. Although possession of less than an ounce of marijuana is legal in Colorado, the bill would prohibit smoking on private property if it is visible to the public. This stands to include anywhere you can be seen, such as on the porch, in a car or, presumably, through your window with the blinds open.

    “No one risks a year in jail for drinking a beer in their fenced backyard.” - Mark Silverstein

In addition to prohibiting visible marijuana consumption, the newly proposed BR13-0736 would disallow smoking if the odor can be detected by the neighboring property. Given the wording of the ordinance, one can assume that it would apply to those smoking on their patio, backyard, or even inside the comfort of their own home.

According to Mark Silverstein, legal director for the American Civil Liberties Union of Colorado, the proposed ordinance is sure to cause conflicts between the community and law enforcement. “Amendment 64 said to regulate marijuana like alcohol. This is not. No one risks a year in jail for drinking a beer in their fenced backyard,” he explained.
Denver To Crack Down On Public Consumption

It’s important to note that public cannabis consumption was already illegal according to Colorado law. With that said, there has been a number of occasions where large groups of people gathered to smoke in public. An obvious example is the annual 4/20 smoke-in event at the Civic Center. Denver Mayor, Michael Hancock, told the Denver Post the event will be allowed, but the associated smoking in public will not.

    “If you are smoking marijuana in a park, we will chase you off. If thousands of people are making a statement one day a year, we have to think that through.” - Chris Nevitt

Hancock added that he was outraged last month when a group who opposed the state-wide tax on cannabis handed out joints at the Civic Center. Many recipients instantly sparked their pre-rolls, but no citations were issued.

Police worried that issuing mass citations for petty offenses would result in a riot, but the Mayor took notice. ”The public trusted the industry that this would be done in a responsible manner, and I think that was an in-your-face response,” Hancock said. “We need to be clear to folks that we aren’t going to tolerate it anymore.”

Not everyone believes things to be so cut-and-dry, however. Councilman Chris Nevitt helped draft the ordinance, but sees it in a slightly different light. According to him, the proposal gives police guidance, but it doesn’t make sense to take action during events like 4/20 smoke-in. As he told the Denver Post, ”If you are smoking marijuana in a park, we will chase you off. If thousands of people are making a statement one day a year, we have to think that through. That is in a different category than ordinary offenses.”

Are you dudes all retarded? Amendment 64 has passed already and been enacted into law. They won't pass a law saying it's legal to possess and consume, but only behind closed doors. The public would riot and the bill will be overturned. This is all just posturing because they lost the war and they want to appear to still have some sort of power over it.

Why are you asking if we are retarded?  are you?
We're just discussing, man.


I can't see how it would pass but the thought of even presenting it shows maximum butt hurtz by the political officials who oppose it.  I believe the article even mentions the fear of a riot lol ( may have been another article)

Im all for treating cannabis smoke the same as tobacco smoke.

Don't do it in public.

It can be highly offensive if you're a non toker

Vaping on the other hand.......

Whats the problem?

If someone cant smoke a cig in public
then the same should apply for cannabis.

I think banning cig in public is totally fucking retarded. And it does also apply for cannabis.

I dont think they should "make smell or smoke illegal" but I do belive it should be done in private unless it is being vaped. People have kids. and unless the kid has a medical condition I dont belive the kids should be subject to the smoke or cigs or mj. We need to show people that smokers are responcible and respectable people so this way we change the sterotype! Blowing smoke around kids wont inpres anyone

PS. i am blazed as can be and cant spell for the life of me

Why shouldn't kids be exposed to cannabis smoke? Seriously, that's just some systematic bullshit that's been pounded into our brains. Obviously I don't plan on hotboxing my kids or anything, but I see no problem with smoking around them if I'm outside.

You guys remember back in the day when kids weren't all little bitches? We treat them like they're made of glass now days and I really don't know why.

Word. Even the noise pollution they call music is worse for their kids than weed. I'd rather take my kid to reggae on the river and let him smell weed than have him be influenced by fucking justin beiber or miley cyrus.

I am not just saying mj smoke. I am saying all smoke! Kids lungs are just developing and they dont need to be around it. I am a smoker of cigs and mj for 11+ years now and I will NOT smoke around my kids. Why should the harm I subject myself to be forced onto my kids or other peoples kids? When I am in an ENCLOSED area I will NOT smoke anything out of RESPECT for people.... Outside in the middle of the park OK but not in tight places... Same reason I support the open container law in terms of drinking. Do it in private. I belive it should be a persional choice but DONT harm others in the process....

If we ever want a shot at mj becomein fully legal we cant act like asses and blowing smoke around OTHER peoples kids with a product that has physco active compunds is NOT a way to impress people..... WELCOME to the PC word we live in.... RESPECT others rights and YOUR rights will be respected

WOULD YOU LIKE IF I CAME AND SAT RIGHT NEXT TO YOUR NEWBORN ON THE PART BENCH AND STARTED SMOKIN A BLUNT? MABYE BLEW A FEW PUFFS IN THE KIDS FACE? I KNOW IF SOMEONE DID THAT TO ME THEY WOULD EAT THAT BLUNT
