Live free or die unless you want to smoke a plant lmfao. Weed isn't my #1 issue, but it's embarrassing to be the only New England state dragging so far behind.

That's funny, I call NH the South of the North.

TX is so much worse than NH with respect to constitutional freedoms.

People that have never lived there (or outside of NH) don't really understand.

I just don't get it, liquor stores on state highways leading to MA. and Me. is ok but recreational weed in a state THAT IS SURROUNDED by states that offer weed (which is also going to prove to pay massive dividends to road and bridge repair from taxes)! Let's hope they don't beef up police stops for weed, the state would go broke and the courts would log jam!

I think NH not legalizing ASAP looks about as good as a speaker that took 15 votes to finally squirm his way into an oil painting in the Capitol !

You can still smoke the plant. No one is stopping you.

Not legally, it's decriminalized but not recreationally legal. I'm glad NH doesn't mind missing out on all the nice income we give to the bordering states for dispensaries!

I'll keep saying it until proven wrong, nh is waiting for it to become nationally legal, so they can add it to nh liquor stores and monopolize it. Then they will down out all the shops just outside the border, and then make a ton of money. But they won't be able to do that if it's still federally illegal.

I know that's their plan and I hate monopolies, let people grow their own plants + allow small dispensaries to exist.

As far as the “let people grow their own plants”… if people can brew their own beer I’m thinking they’ll be allowed to grow their own plants.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. I hope we are able to grow our own

I don’t gaf about weed, really not my thing. But I really don’t understand why people who are so enamored with it dont have a couple potted plants here and there.

The same reason people who buy a 12-pack once a week don’t have microbrewery supplies in their homes.

The state of NH has already screwed up the medical market. They won't put anyone out of business if the weed sucks. Yay Maine.

They will just buy good stuff, you don't see them making their own booze

And I don't see them buying good stuff for the medical users.

Never mind dispensaries, Maine is flooding the grey market and prices keep coming down. I paid $60 for an eighth because I wanted to try Vermont weed. Holy shit, plus $13 taxes for an once price of $584.00. I get pissa weed from Maine and it is going under $200 an oz, no tax added. Even Massachusetts was cheaper than Bratteleboro Vermont.

Tell that to the 1243 people who were arrested for it just last year.

So you’re saying these people were minding their own businesses in their own homes and the boogie men cops magically appeared to arrest them?

You can smoke weed as long as nobody buys it, sells it, grows it, or brings it over state lines. FREEDOM

Sure they can, but boy I’ll tell ya, being able to walk down the street to my local dispensary and get some quality bud on a moment’s notice is pretty nice. And not having to worry that I’m doing something illegal.
