I'm not sure what they expected.
In the past, Vancouver police literally said "we're not targeting shroom dispensaries, there are bigger issues" basically verbatim lol. So probably that.
The graduated in size from worrying aboht local cops to federal corporate lobbyists.
When something is illegal and even the police ignore it you know that shit doesn't matter
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
It even mentions that in here.
They were expecting to get busted, go to court and eventually manage to get 'shrooms legalized the same way weed has been.
I suspect they were getting high on their own supply when they came up with that plan.
Really? Mushrooms feel semi-accepted at this point, I wouldn't be surprised at all if it becomes legal in the near-ish future.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if it becomes legal in the near-ish future.
I'm confident they were trying to push that process to go faster.
