Unless you're using massive quantities, no one is probably going to know or care. It's about to be legal recreationally in a few months anyways.

Though the proposition may indeed pass, it will probably take quite a long time to be implemented. If it passes in November I wouldn’t expect to see legal recreational weed until 2024. I have no particular source on this, so I’d be happy to be proven wrong.

Right. I'm not sure how long the actual commercial application of the law would be rolled out. But in terms of 21+ adults being protected to possess cannabis, that is applied by Dec 8, 2022. As far as I can tell. Please don't take that as legal advice.

My point was that many folks are going to be more leniant in general. But in terms of accepted use, that may be difficult to find in writing. Even in states like Colorado, a lot of leases still forbid indoor cannabis use in writing. Although most don't enforce that or care.

God I hope not, that amendment is garbage, and will cause more harm than good.

It's a solid law and allows you to possess more cannabis than you can in Colorado. Adults can grow your own, has automatic expungment for past mairjuana convictions, nurses can now certify medical cannabis patients, increases medical cannabis card from one year to three years and more.

Lets expand on the "More" part. It helps big business lock in a monopoly on the market. It creates new felonies for possession, and puts further limits on home growing to push people to the despos go gain more revenue. I like some thigs about it, but I'll be voting no.

Current felony cannabis limits in Missouri have anything over 35g (barely over an ounce) of up to 7 years in prison and up to a $10,000 fine. What we'll be voting on allows 21+ to possess up to 3 ounces with no penalties. SO now, it doesn't create a new felony. It lowers the penalties.

The amendment allows a minimum of 144 new business licenses (no maximum). There are already over 100 different cannabis entities in the state. So the idea that this will create a monopoly is silly.

By the way, the folks that are running this campaign are the same folks that passed the medical cannabis law in 2016.

You are completely uninformed, but not surprised. There's always tons of misinformation from both sides anytime there's a ballot initiative.
