re: #414 Anymouse 🌹

County sheriffs in the six Nebraska counties that border Colorado make a big deal about alleged smuggling from Colorado. I don’t really read that much in the newspaper about any drug busts for weed though. (Meth, but they make that here.)

When Colorado first passed its legal weed referendum, Nebraska was seriously considering closing all non-paved roads across the state line (a couple wingnuts in the Unicameral even proposed having armed citizen patrols on the state line).

There are less than a dozen paved roads across the state line (not counting I-76), which the county sheriffs figured they could patrol better.

Ranchers and farmers along the state line went ballistic, as such a proposal would really screw up their ability to go to fields and pastures on each side of the state line.

Eventually, the state gave up on that idea.

Over pot? And they call us snowflakes lol.
