Weed is illegal.
Walking across the street outside of the permitted area even if there is not a car in sight.
A dozen states still have sodomy laws on the books and only aren’t enforced because of Lawrence v. Texas, a 2003 SCOTUS decision.
Be interesting to see how that plays out the next couple of years.
My city has an ordinance where you can’t park within 20 feet of a crosswalk. It’s an absurd amount of space considering that the average car length is 15 feet. They do ticket for that even if the car is completely clear of the sidewalk by several feet, which is what the spirit of the law is about. The weird thing is that there’s an ordinance where you can’t park within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, which seems more important to have more space cleared than a crosswalk, but what do I know.
the average car length is 15 feet.
I know what you said is wrong, but what did you mean to say…?
Can’t see the silliness in that at all. Over here (Sweden) the required clearance is 10 m (~30 feet) (before the crosswalk, none after). The intent of the law is to allow full visibility of pedestrians about to cross the street.
Here it’s before and after the crosswalk. Before I get, that’s designed to make sure the driver can see the pedestrians crossing the street. The city sets up no parking signs in that situation for that reason. The silliness comes in when you park on a one way street beyond the crosswalk, which does not block the view of the driver and does not block the crosswalk of the pedestrian, yet it’s still a ticket for reasons despite no signs or painted curb or anything that would indicate that you can’t park there.
They still don’t like smoking weed here in Atlanta, GA…Or the rest of the state.
It’s legal here in Oregon. Only, most places will tell you that you can’t smoke on the property. And you’re not supposed to smoke it outside in public either.
So it’s legal to smoke in private outside only. And everyone just smokes inside anyways cause it’s fucking dumb how specific that is.
Tbf I like all those restrictions for cigs. It shouldn’t be different for weed. At the end of the day, people shouldn’t have to breathe in someone else’s polluted air if they don’t want to.
