Wouldn't it be nice if instead of just bars with alcohol, there were establishments for people to consume cannabis while eating, playing board games, and socializing?

If anything, cannabis seems like a much better (and more profitable) drug around which to build a leisurely establishment.

If they replaced individual bars rather than expanded the space where drug consumption is the basis of socializing.

I don’t smoke weed, but phrasing it’s usage as “drug consumption” always annoyed me. It makes it sound like it’s the same thing as heroin or meth, which it’s not even close to the same thing.

It's the same thing as alcohol.

It isn’t. And when people say “drugs” they’re almost never talking about alcohol anyway, unless the conversation is literally about the designation of what constitutes a drug and what doesn’t, which is convoluted as heck.

Depends on your circles I suppose. Drug is drug.

Yep. I can't stand this "oh, weed is harnless" attitude a lot of people have towards cannabis. Its an intoxicant like any other, and should be treated as such.

The amount of friends I have who think that they're fine to smoke and drive are too damn high.
