By Jeff Charles | May 10, 2021 4:30 PM ET

Conservative states are finally moving closer to the legalization of marijuana. As more states pass legislation decriminalizing or fully legalizing the plant for recreational use, red states have been the primary holdouts.

As long as I don't have to walk through clouds of it while I'm taking care of my own business, and don't have to worry about pot-impaired drivers mixing in with the alcohol-impaired drivers, I'm ok with it.
