Doper trash.
What is there to do about it?

In other news, your life will be ruined by their liberal government if you’re caught with a plastic straw.

That’s impossible. Pot smoking libs aren’t litter bugs (you know, environment and all.)

There’s got to be ban on plastic baggies. Also a tax on the sales of Miracle Gro. /sarc.

No sympathy. They are “hip” and want to go around in a drugged out fog all day. Never met a pot smoker full of “get up and go” or “can do” spirit. They will loll about their opium dens in a haze waiting for someone else to clean up their mess. That's probably why they want to import Mexicans.

I’ve known a lot of pot smokers with prison records.

I bet the environmental watchdogs won’t touch this one.

Get rid of pre-rolled pot. Either buy it as a vape or buy it in a environmentally friendly bag and smoke it from a pipe or joint.

I have a cousin who I barely know who works for a dope dispensary in Vancouver. I saw my aunt a couple weeks ago for the first time in about ten years. She was waxing poetically of the benefits of marijuana and how wonderful the industry is.
I had a short visit to Washington State last winter and saw enough shiftless derelict layabouts to disagree vehemently with her.

You need to find better company.

“Doper trash.”
OK, why not complain about cigarette butts on the ground?
To: Red Badger

Correct. And this applies to higher taxes and more government spending too. Libertarians are often the most vocal proponent for dope. Natually. Yet the concept of legal dope leading to higher tax revenues for the state which of course leads to more spending is lost on them.
BTW - your tagline? We are way in the middle of August and what "truth" has the world learned from Q Anon?
To: Responsibility2nd
Sorry dude. I’m too stoned to care about the environment.

Of course. 98% of inmates are dope users.
But if you listen to the pro-dopers - that fact has nothing to do with nothing
To: cyclotic
How bout that?
Everything about dope seems to suck for everyone except those that partake, for users all its warts just magically disappear.

That doesn't solve even half the problem. Did you even read the excerpt?
Concentrated nutrients and fertilizers left over from cannabis growing operations are being dumped in public sewers and making their way past wastewater treatment plants into Puget Sound. And millions of pounds of weed harvest waste that could be composted are instead getting trucked to landfills.
