I'm the same way, I just can't stand it that something that was never really a
"problem" before, is now a problem, in that it must be taxed, it has stupid 
shops all over Toronto with no regulation as to how many per block or keeping 
them away from schools, parks, libraries etc.

Thats always been my biggest complaint with the pro-pot crowd; they never 
think ahead, they never have considerations about how pot may impact 
others or those that would not quite appreciate it... in short they are
incredibly selfish.

We used to live in a small apartment building where a lovely neighbor living
downstairs constantly smoked pot. The smell was everywhere in the common
hallway and stairwell. Very inconsiderate. My daughter at the time was 
young and totally put off by it, disgusted and embarrassed to bring home
friends from school. Now she's 16 and thankfully still has no interest in it.
