Neighbor smoking weed in public - What to do?

I dislike the idea where someone can't enjoy something legally at home w/o nosey neighbors thinking they need to call the cops.

Would you feel compelled to call the cops if a neighbor smoked cigarettes outside? Why not? Your kids shouldn't do that either & as far as the law is concerned their basically the same. You wouldn't call the cops for that so not sure why you feel the need to call for weed either.

Starting a war with a neighbor over something so petty is an even worse idea. What if he sees YOU do something he doesn't approve of that is legal & calls the cops on you? Imagine loading firearms into a vehicle or something like that & next thing you know you're being ordered to the ground at gunpoint over it because nosey neighbor disapproved of what you were doing & called the cops even if it was legal.

If someone is actively breaking the law for a fact & lives are in immediate danger as a result, call. Otherwise put on your big boy pants & talk to them yourself if it's so important to you. Better yet, realize that the reason you're struggling with what to do is because you know deep down it's petty & if you raise your kids properly it won't matter what your neighbors do. Sounds like a teaching moment & a great example of teaching right from wrong. Stop expecting society to impress morals upon your children with laws or police intervention when it's your job as a parent.

If this reads harsh then good because I can't believe some of the Liberty crushing bullshit I'm reading in this thread from adults. You all want people to not look at guns with a negative view because they're legal & then in the same breath do the same to others. Freedom applies across the board whether you personally agree or not.

If the worst thing you ever have to deal with is a neighbor smoking a joint quietly & peacefully in his car in the driveway then consider yourself lucky & move on w/life.

What a worthless thread.

IBTL indeed.

Well said Jer.

And for the forum I do not partake in marijuana consumption. When the neighbors are taking rips off of their bongzilla I just close my windows.

As others have said this has run its course. Not for me or others to judge one way or another. Just like many other subjects that get peoples panties in a twist it is a law and here in the state of Colorado and it is legal.
