Pot on the Beach

[saeyedoc]

Yes, much more than in years past. Same with smoking it in restaurants and openly on the beach, used to be mostly on the cliff side places.

It is now WFO ... decriminalization apparently has brought ganja completely out in the open. Hustlers on beach even allowing you to take pictures of them with their wares.
One day at lunch at beach restaurant a table of 4 next to us all fired up huge individual spliffs. Now they were serious about finding their groove

Much better to have smokers then the crack-heads dealers that were prevalent in the past. Plus with decriminalization the police can focus on the real problems (violence, crack, etc...) instead of someone smoking a spliff.

The hotel we stayed in the last two trips and again this April was always a "no ganja smoking" establishment. Now there is open smoking on the beach. So goes it.

Any logical person should know ahead of time that ganja is everywhere in Jamaica. It is mentioned on every travel site I have looked at. If they are offended by ganja my suggestion is to find another island to visit.

The Jamaican Government is moving quickly to commercialize ganja based products and medicines. It is a product and business that is booming.

My thoughts exactly.

It is Jamaica. I was shocked last month when some folks from the states were telling us that it was illegal for us to smoke in Jamaica because it is illegal in the states (derp, not everywhere). The same couple was explaining the virtues of donald trump being president.

I heard tales of a bud vending machine being put in the airport, which allowed you to self declare that you needed ganja as medicine. I guess that still hasn't happened.

Last December the beach guys selling pot were pretty aggressive. I was polite and said that stuff makes me dizzy. They almost wouldn't take no for an answer. I was not amused. In the past it seemed they would just say "Smoke?" And you could say no thanks.
