20 years ago there were a lot of weed storefronts that were just permitted to operate iirc

Those stores were never "weed" stores, they were "smoking accessory" stores. You could buy bongs, pipes, incense, herbal tobacco (i.e. legal), and every manner of thing that wasn't actually pot. Unless you had an in with the staff, then as often as not they would quietly sell you pot.

But they always maintained the pretense of not selling drugs, which a growing chain of mushroom stores did not do.

I also wonder if the fungi retailers failed to fertilize the right relationships. not saying anyone would ever bribe a cop, or suffer for not doing so.... but yeah
