Massachusetts to start selling recreational marijuanaBy The Manila TimesNEW YORK: Massachusetts is joining the growing list of US states where Americans can walk into a shop and legally buy recreational marijuana, with two stores due to open next Tuesday. The Cannabis Control Commission issued notices Friday for two outlets to start selling to adults legally without a prescription in three days. According to the law passed by Massachusetts, marijuana cannot be consumed while driving nor in public places. The US federal capital Washington and 10 states — Alaska, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada, Oregon, Vermont and Washington — have legalized marijuana for recreational use. The two stores in Massachusetts will be the first on the US East Coast able to sell marijuana for recreational use.
