I don't want to smell my neighbors. That's a fair ruling.

I feel like there's got to be a middle ground between, "I don't want to smell this" and getting a court order to stop someone from taking their medicine in their own home.
Yeah, that's some crazy escalation.
Yeah, for sure. Even though I disagree with it, I understand it (despire her seemingly going for the nuclear option).
It's an apartment complex which likely is already a no-smoking environment. Logically speaking, cannabis smoke shouldn't get an exception. The order just seems to prohibit the man from smoking, so I assume other methods are still on the table.
Pretty much everyone I know with a medical card uses a vaporizer. Little to no smell and much easier on the lungs. That, or edibles.
How would the courts treat making your own home edibles? Cause that process is smelly as well.
I don't agree with the ruling, or the sentiment, but making edibles is a periodic process. Smells once per week is a lot different than pot smoke several times per day, every day.
My question is if you can have this banned by the courts could you theoretically get an injunction on people cooking in their own homes especially something “smelly” like a curry.
Vapes/edibles for every medicinal user? Something less smelly.
Edibles aren’t necessarily less smelly if they decide to make their own.
Edibles are a thing. I wouldn't want my newborn to second hand smoke pot.
You know if they want to make their own edibles it would be just as smelly right? I also highly doubt you’re newborn would be getting second hand smoke from another apartment it’s just the smell that carries through.
What do you think the smell is made of? If you can smell it, there are all sorts of particulates making it into your nose and particulates in general aren't good for the lungs, especially young developing lungs, whether the smoke causes a high or not. If they can smell it, they're breathing in second hand smoke.
There are places that sell edibles. If you can't make edibles in a way that vents the smell away from your neighbors' apartments, you probably shouldn't be making them in that space.
No, why do you assume I'd know that. Although I suspect you could buy oral THC like most other medication right?
Also I don't think not wanting your newborn to be around potsmoke (or "just" the smell which is somehow better??) is an unreasonable request.
So you gonna get a court order to stop people cooking in their own homes especially “smelly” meals like curries?
Great! Now do tobacco smoke!
I feel that for marijuana usage to become more acceptable, it needs to be bred to be much less pungent.
My brother-in-law stayed with us last weekend, and is a chronic pot smoker. Our garden absolutely reeked of the stuff. Fortunately the house to one side is empty, and our neighbour on the other side was away. But anyone else in the area must have thought we were going hard on it all weekend. Wouldn't be so bad, but my work has a zero tolerance policy on drug use (I work in the railway industry), so I didn't even get to join him.
Haha “chronic pot smoker”.
But no, I agree, the smell is an absolute downer to me. I just don’t like overbearing odors as a whole.
Vaping distillates is a good way to cut down on the smell and tar.
Vape or edibles. I hate the smell too. You can make edibles/tincture with not as much smell because you can get a device that is sealed while you decarboxalate/heat up the weed. Put some oil in there and you've got a tincture.
I now just create a tincture with delta 8 and cbd, cbc etc. Using the isolates means no smell and you can make your own ratios. I create my tincture to help with my restless leg syndrome, so I'm able to sleep and not have pain. I wouldn't want to medicate myself daily by smoking. That sounds bad for my lungs.
Interesting. While I understand their ruling in this case, I wonder how it would apply to other "high-smell" things like tabacco smoke and very fragrant food.
Why not just order the neighbor to run an air purifier?
