I don't want to smell my neighbors. That's a fair ruling.

I feel like there's got to be a middle ground between, "I don't want to smell this" and getting a court order to stop someone from taking their medicine in their own home.

Vapes/edibles for every medicinal user? Something less smelly.

Edibles aren’t necessarily less smelly if they decide to make their own.
