My town has a store literally named Mary Jane's Pot Shop where you can buy anything from $5 .3 gm pre-packed bowls to $216 vacuum-sealed ounces with grower's brand names while over the border six miles east any amount at all can get you a year in prison and all of the store employees would be subject to a five year felony.
Since it opened it's been funny to randomly smell weed when out and about. It's rare to NOT smell it when I walk through the student neighborhood but now there's like the old man down the street who seems to smoke in his garage a lot, which I like to think explains his crazy Christmas lights.

Honestly, don't know what to expect, it's not a strictly partisan issue. I think it may be a longshot, but I could also imagine the votes being cobbled together by a mix of democrats and republicans.

Some legislators would rather write the proposed law themselves rather than have activists do it, allowing for lots of public input and final say.By Joshua MillerGlobe Staff March 23, 2015
Beacon Hill legislators are working on a marijuana legalization proposal, in part as an effort to short-circuit an expected 2016 ballot push.
Advocates have long planned an initiative petition to legalize the recreational use of the drug for adults, and political analysts have expected that measure to pass in the next presidential election year.
But some lawmakers are balking at the prospect of activists unilaterally writing a law that would have such a profound effect on the state. The legislators would rather write the proposed law themselves, allow for lots of public input, and have final say on the scope and details.
“Wouldn’t it be a good idea for the Legislature to look at it ahead of time, listen to every point of view, anticipate every problem that we could, and try to do it right?” said Senator Patricia D. Jehlen, Democrat of Somerville and a lead sponsor of a bill to legalize, tax, and regulate recreational use of marijuana.
