All the pot heads grew up and are now community activists and politicians. They are striking back at tobacco smokers because it so far has not been illegal to smoke tobacco. They just want to inflict their past pain on others.
Most people who hear horror stories of Oregon and Washington have only heard stories of cities like Eugene, Portland, Seattle etc. where lawlessness, homelessness, and drug use run rampant. The other half of the state lives in rural areas where the politics and lifestyles are by and large the complete opposite of those reflected in the population centers. This is a problem all around the country and is further deepening the urban/rural and political divide. It's frustrating to have cities like Eugene and Portland dictate the laws that we all have to abide by in the rest of the rural areas of the state when our lifestyles are so incredibly different.
Now you did it. Incoming pothead reperations.
Divide and conquer is the oldest trick in the book and it's been achieved thoroughly now, to the point of being completely irreconcilable.
Exactly. If you combine local laws prohibiting the sale of tobacco like they have in California with the prohibition of purchasing via the internet like Washington and Maine have done, you'd be effectively cut off from normal means of purchasing most (if not all) pipe tobacco.
I wouldn’t say I like Austin better but I like Texas better than Oregon, even though Oregon is beautiful. Im getting old so I avoid the city as much as I can. I work remote and I’m way up north, almost Cedar Park and I just stay in my hood. Austin & Portland are similar in a lot of ways though, you are right.
Do they have trees and forests there?

Texas is big so I’m sure there is. East Texas has the trees you are looking for. Our trees in Austin look like bushes compared to Oregon. Have you ever been to Flagstaff, AZ? That is my favorite place in the US.
Just messin with ya. I spent years in Oregon and a few miles away from I-5 either way you’d never know it’s moonbat territory. Beautiful country that’s for sure, hate it for the rural dwellers
No, but I've thought of Flagstaff, hear it's high enough that it stays reasonable in the summer. Just looked it up and avg high of 82 in July, and it's dry. Homes are much lower than here. Which are the best parts of town? We like walking/hiking. Maybe we can meet up there in a few years for a pint and bowl!
I grew up there, so I have fond memories of it. Beautiful mountains in our backyard, amazing hiking, great swimming just about 30 minutes south in Sedona. We grew up in the Foxglenn neighborhood. It’s changed some since then but still has the same vibe. One of the best kept secrets of AZ.
