"How to set a tone of woodsy chic at a four-course candlelight dinner served under the stars in the Colorado foothills:
Live musicians and flowers, check. Award-winning cuisine, check. Beer and wine pairings with each course, check. Marijuana pairings? Oh, yes.
The 100 diners at this $200-a-plate dinner smoked a citrus-smelling marijuana strain to go with a fall salad with apples, dates and bacon, followed by a darker, sweeter strain of pot to accompany a main course of slow-roasted pork shoulder in a mole sauce with charred root vegetables and rice.
And with dessert? Marijuana-infused chocolate, of course, grated over salted caramel ice cream and paired with coffee infused with non-intoxicating hemp oil.
The diners received small glass pieces and lighters to smoke the pairings, or they could have their marijuana rolled into joints by professional rollers set up next to a bartender pouring wine.
Welcome to fine dining in Weed Country."

Yes, but do remember that not being in the US Constitution just means the Feds aren't legally (as opposed to officially) permitted to do something. This says nothing about the rights of states and cities, which have a perfect right to limit, e.g., firearms....if it's in their constitutions or charters.

I certainly am open to views that differ from my own, such as yours, but here's likely the connundrum of the pendulum swinging back towards liberty from tyranny-land where it is now:
All governments in the USA claim "the people" as the source of their authority. The authority of "the people" does not grow in limit with larger numbers of people: if I as one person can't kidnap and cage my neighbor for growing a certain type of plant (weed, tree, shrub, etc.), neither then can 100 or 100 million people justly do the same. Further, if I do not have the authority to do a given thing on my own, neither can I delegate authority to do the same to any government.
Shorthand: if I can't do a given thing to someone else, neither can US governments [soylentnews.org].
