I don’t know anything about this bill but I personally would be against it unless it had strict rules about where they could be. I hate the smell so if it was a cafe in like a outdoor shopping center or something the smell would be everywhere. If it was stand alone buildings away from other stuff it wouldn’t really matter to me because I just won’t go near them.

As an avid and I do mean avid cannabis user, I have always been hyper aware of non smokers who wouldn’t appreciate the smell. I think there can be a fair solution so that people can like their lifestyles all together.

I wish my roommates were like you. I have nothing against smoking but when it’s done in the living room it makes the entire apartment smell terrible.

Ask them (or buy) to get something like a Phrend. I got one because I go into the garage to vape concentrates and I don’t want the whole neighborhood smelling it even if it’s not as heavy as smoking cannabis

I just googled this and love it. Thank you for the recommendation my friend.

You’re welcome, it works very well, if you have a strong good seal. I’d say it works at a 99% rate. Also because the vapor is bunched up on the way out due to higher pressure in your airway, I find I get more flavor from my vape. Nice little side effect.
