Recreational marijuana and registered marijuana grows are legal in California. Dicus, however, cited the marijuana black market as a cause of violence.

I live in California. I have gummies and a vape that I bought at corner stores. How is this still a thing? I’m genuinely curious. Why are people still dying over pot if I can buy it legally?
That’s an enormous difference. Way more than flower.
The costs of regulations that dispensaries and growers have to deal with get passed on to the consumer as well.
