Marijuana now legal in NY after Cuomo signs bill

Governor Andrew Cuomo signed a bill legalizing recreational marijuana Wednesday, making New York the 15th state to do so after lawmakers approved the sweeping measures Tuesday.

  49. MētztliMICHIGANO on October 7, 2023 at 11:08 pm

    Mexica, Negras, good 4 you. I’m glad finally they stopped being scared of a plant. But all the weed stores in Michigan are owned by whites and Arabics. Don’t support them muata stores in YOUR hood unless it’s black or brown.



  50. Woody Allen on October 7, 2023 at 11:10 pm

    My hope is that all lowlifes who get stoned die soon. Almost as a way to help with overpopulation. I don’t apologize for sounding blunt. Oh…. and also for the bad (good?) pun.
