How Legal Is Marijuana In The United States? Here’s Five Ways It Is!



Washington and Colorado in the United Sates were the first states to make marijuana a legal drug. Well, with the changes, restrictions and other things involving pot, marijuana isn’t exactly and completely legal in the United States. However, here are five things we’re pretty sure makes it legal to own pot in the United States.

 
1.    Over 21-years-old? You Could Buy Marijuana!
If you’re over 21, you could buy marijuana legally in government-regulated pot-shops in the country.

2.    Alaska, DC and Oregon Allows Smoking
As long as you don’t smoke it in public and the government irons out the troubles, you could smoke marijuana in these places without fearing the fuzz.

3.    Public Smoking of Marijuana is Not Allowed
4.    Medical Marijuana is different from recreational marijuana.
Medical Marijuana is actually legal in 23 US states.

5.    Employers Have The Right To Fire Cannabis Users
Despite laws helping marijuana become semi-legal, employers who find their employees smoking pot inside work premises or are quite sober from marijuana usage can still fire them at will. Of course, even if employees fail at a drug test due to marijuana, they could still get fired.
