The highest court in SA has decided that you’re now allowed to smoke and grow weed at home legally. And they didn’t even specify an amount. Watch the new B&B’s advertising soon: 2 bedroom house with breakfast and weed, straight from the garden.

yah maybe its good, but I can tell you being from Canada, we do a lot of border crossings into the USA. Since it is legal (well soon) in Canada the USA is denying entry to some Canadians even if they do not smoke, simply owning stock of a company that produces, distributes pot can be enough to be banned for life... and yes this has already happened.
I am not a user myself but I was going to buy some stocks and that alone could get me in trouble especially now with smart phones, and other tech, they can easily see what you are doing and it is at their discretion if you are allowed to enter or not.

Agree. Prescription meds for injuries and a $10 bottle of bottom shelf Vodka is 10000x worse than some ganj

A fair amount of kitesurfers here in the Netherlands will not go kitesurfing without using wiet (weed) before kitesurfing. Makes them waaaaay more creative, and they have waaaay more guts that way...
So they say..

Kiter from Washington state here. I don't smoke myself, but weed legalization has been a positive in that 1) some of the tax money is going to education and 2) the police I know personally are happy to spend their time solving real crimes rather than doing the paperwork after arresting people for possession.
