Re: “I live in eastern Washington and so far I can tell you that legalization has been a big nothingburger.”

I can confirm the same story in western Washington.

I live two blocks from a legal marijuana store, east of Seattle, in an affluent, overwhelmingly white and Asian neighborhood.

The first week or two, lots of news crews and middle aged adults outside the store - today, you barely notice it's there.

One down side, our ultra-Left county council decided we need more diversity in our quiet, crime free neighborhood, so they built a low income-Section 8-homeless apartment building one block away from the marijuana store.

Now, my Safeway store is full of Black gangbangers and obese women with the munchies.

On the bright side, at least some of them are just high on reefer and are not violently amped up on alcohol, crack, or meth.

They are doing the exact same thing where I live. I expect them to fill the housing with the next wave of refugees to hit the US.

Time to move to Steven's County.
