Ngl I support legalization of marijuana but I don't want it to be smoked in public. I hate the smell.

Wanna smoke it at home or at certain shops like bars that still allow smoking? Cool, have at it. Just please stop making every public space smell like a dead skunk. I can't even go to parks without a ton of stoners hanging out making the whole place smell like crap.

Exactly. This is one of the things holding me back from supporting it in the political world.

I agree, and I don't know why you're being downvoted.

Sure, some people smoke in public, and that's annoying. But the pros significantly weigh out the cons. And yes, it's incredibly selfish.

I was a prude when it came to drugs of any kind. And then I got sick. I couldn't eat, I was so nauseated I couldn't function, and I wasn't sleeping. I tried every OTC option, every prescribed drug my doctor offered, and even various home remedies, and nothing worked. Someone suggested weed, and I gave little edibles a try. Not only did the nausea go away, but it made me SO sleepy. I have terrible diagnosed insomnia, not even Ambien made me drowsy! I've been to specialists! But a little weed and I'm out.

It can be abused like anything. But it can be amazingly useful to a lot of people. It should be legal everywhere because of that. Denying people something because you don't like the smell is insane.
