Reply to comment by ImJustHereToAnnoyJK in 'I smell some weed,' NYC Mayor delighted by Times Square dank by Ajkrouse

Even as a user myself, I hate the smell too. I try to be discreet where possible, and mostly vape dry herb to try to curb smell.

However, I don't think its replacing smoking cigarettes with another problem. As far as I'm aware and think I have read, such as my license, we have the same restrictions as any cigarettes smoker. I thought there's no distinction in the legalise. Enforcement and people being assholes is another issue for sure though. Please do correct me if I'm mistaken though. It came to mind recently since I walk home by a school and that's definitely in there as a restriction, 1000ft or something no use zone in NY

I’m not entirely sure tbh, but what I think makes it worse is when politicians like this mayor encourage it with stunts like this. Good on you though for thinking about other people. My BIL uses MJ for anxiety, but like you he only uses it when no one is around. Idk why these other folks in NYC think otherwise. I’ve seen some dbags purposely blow their pot smoke at families when walking by, crazy times my dude.
