    Do we get fundamentalist Christian Democrats shutting it down to save the souls from the devil’s lettuce?

    I boycott it . Who’s taking the majority of the money into what pockets? 🧐

    I really hope that cafe like this come to CA such as Anaheim CA or surrounding areas because I had 4 alcoholic drinks and almost died last night it was so bad. Only reason why I didn’t go get a weed edible is because I need to get a job and if I fail my drug test they won’t hire me. Less alcohol more shops like this would be so much better I wouldn’t have even had a hangover the next day alcohol is the worst though and causes so many problems.

    Another gold rush, it will be on every street corner, barely make revenue, cause people wont report the profits correctly, then it will get taxed more heavy then people won’t like it, closed down and go underground shops.



  6. @masteryoshi2196 on February 4, 2024 at 5:02 am

    They want you to keep smoking and spending money. They don’t care how stupid or lazy people become



  7. @Alexwhatisit on February 4, 2024 at 5:03 am

    So how’s this work with it already being illegal to smoke inside?



  8. @eddiemunster8634 on February 4, 2024 at 5:03 am

    Everyone can see what drugs do the someone, they all end up on the street living as raving lunatics, and things like schizophrenia and bipolar disease and paranoia are not reversible, these people become a total waste and a burden for society, and yet you want to legalize drugs?



  9. @supportmytroups7 on February 4, 2024 at 5:04 am

    And they need weed sales after everybody moving out of CA for high prices and crime



  10. @fuckyomamafuckyosisterfuck6136 on February 4, 2024 at 5:04 am

  14. @zipakna on February 4, 2024 at 5:11 am

    LOL, Amsterdam is trying to close a lot of those cafes because they’re tired of tourists on drugs harassing everyone, and passing out everywhere.



  15. @seamac7564 on February 4, 2024 at 5:12 am

    Love to see California’s priorities! As criminals run the streets, the tax burden increases, and the restriction of Rights continues….by GAWD, give them the cannabis. Bravo Brave Politicians and Voters, Bravo.

    *Weed is a Gateway Drug to full blown Liberalism!*



  17. @CA_88 on February 4, 2024 at 5:15 am

    Marijuana is great



  18. @eddiemunster8634 on February 4, 2024 at 5:15 am

    The only good thing about legalized marijuana is it lets you identify who the losers are, who the psychotics are, who the neurotics are,



  19. @John-jz7zz on February 4, 2024 at 5:17 am

    Marijuana decreases fertility in men, reduces dopamine levels which leads to lower levels of ambition, and has many of the same harmful toxins found in tobacco smoke which is harmful to the lungs and may be associated with cancer. But sure, let’s expand usage statewide.



  20. @konjfful2963 on February 4, 2024 at 5:17 am

    $35 bucks for a 12 oz drink lol get ready



  21. @meatpopsicle1567 on February 4, 2024 at 5:17 am

    Great. More businesses for the locals to burglarize and rob. California is NOT the Netherlands, after all.



  22. @bigdaddytrips6197 on February 4, 2024 at 5:20 am

  26. @WorldReserveCurrency on February 4, 2024 at 5:23 am

    oh yeah they want tourism boom so politicians can fill their coffeurs for more crony billion dollar contracts for free cell phones while we rank the worst in education, traffic congestion, cost of living, cost of toll roads. Basically ignore all the problems so they have new streams of money. corrupt!!



  27. @davidtilley6016 on February 4, 2024 at 5:23 am

    Califoria just stooped to a new low. 🤦



  28. @JohnnyJRemix on February 4, 2024 at 5:24 am

  29. @rossbabcock3790 on February 4, 2024 at 5:25 am

    I’m sure it’s another great source of crime for CA! I’m glad the priorities are straight.



  30. @T.Homme95 on February 4, 2024 at 5:26 am

  31. @yoiashi on February 4, 2024 at 5:29 am

    Man California is really truly getting worse and worse



  32. @candeffect on February 4, 2024 at 5:30 am

    THC is a toxic chemical.
    The brain needs nutrients.



  33. @West_Coast on February 4, 2024 at 5:30 am

    We don’t need cannabis style coffee shops, remove the cap off the edibles and stop trying to rip off the users.



  34. @mazyata9958 on February 4, 2024 at 5:32 am

    Lol, CA is already a piece of garbage. The rich and poor are messed up in the head. Everyone is a liberal. Everyone is a narcissist. Crime, gangs, illegals, drugs, cost of living, etc. Now you want people to be potheads? You stoners don’t realize that weed does not fix and cure everything! California has been crap years and years now. Give yourselves a pat on the back. You liberals never made anything better.



  35. @nunyabidnezz703 on February 4, 2024 at 5:33 am

    Get ready for more crime.



  36. @timesurfingalien on February 4, 2024 at 5:33 am

    Government "ALLOWING" you. California you got that shi+ backwards



  37. @dedmonhomerepairfencing875 on February 4, 2024 at 5:37 am

  38. @d.fenestrator9529 on February 4, 2024 at 5:39 am

    Great! More businesses for scumbags to rob!



  39. @jeffnelson4489 on February 4, 2024 at 5:41 am

    Possibly they’ll have fentanyl cafes as well!



  40. @jujitsuman9934 on February 4, 2024 at 5:41 am

    This is outta control. You guys are all out of your minds.



  41. @searchforthetruth1998 on February 4, 2024 at 5:42 am

  42. @smckay6438 on February 4, 2024 at 5:42 am

    I think to my self ! WE should not have parking lots at bars to discourage drunk driving!
    AND NOW THIS SEEMS LIKE THE SAME SET UP FOR FAILURES SYSTEM , BUT COLLECT REVENUE SYSTEM ?



  43. @mikeca98 on February 4, 2024 at 5:43 am

    No thanks. We already have enough baked burnouts here.



  44. @jimtom4849 on February 4, 2024 at 5:45 am

    Bunch of red tape for marajuana when you can sell and shoot up Fentynol on the steps of the police station and city hall



  45. @JT-nu1oi on February 4, 2024 at 5:46 am

  47. @desperadodeluxe2292 on February 4, 2024 at 5:47 am

    Honestly the taxes will probably make it unsustainable. California is a joke.
    You know what I’m homeless I work while California slobs collect welfare and run up huge debts.



  48. @Gdogw22 on February 4, 2024 at 5:51 am
