My bad.
Pick your battles carefully.
The Greatest Generation sure enjoyed their booze.

On rental property ...
As landlord I ban smoking anywhere on the property. That has always been tobacco. I ban vaping too.
Can I extrapolate and ban all marihuana too ? Will an Rx override my ban ?
Keeping them stoned and stupid is a recipe for the Democrat’s victory year in and year out.
Seems like marijuana usage by youths has always been a thing.
