because the system is still rigged. Drinking is acceptable because it was a rich / white thing in the past.

Marijuana was made illegal because at the time majority of its use was by brown people and other "undesirables" who may become violent or cause white woman to have sex with black men.

What the article actually says is that it's 36 million, 24 million in 2022 budget! You want to make journal square better let Kushner, and whoever else is building there, fund the museum. They are the ones getting the tax abatements. Not us! Put it on their backs not ours. They are the ones who will profit from the redevelopment!

Bro you don’t even know. I moved from JC to South Orange which is really South Orange/Maplewood and both towns are PROGRESSIVE. However everyone are NIMBY’s. Maplewood completely banned gas leaf blowers and there’s been fights breaking out in the Facebook group between the pro leaf blower and anti leaf blower coalitions.

That said, everyone is pretty pro dispensaries here.
