Ron DeSantis predicts cops won't stop restaurant toking if Florida voters legalize recreational pot
Gov. Ron DeSantis is alleging that legalizing marijuana inevitably means police won’t stop weed smokers lighting up at commercial restaurants.
“Law enforcement is not going to,” DeSantis said. “They’re not going to spend time policing whether it’s being used in a restaurant or not if it’s a constitutional right. They’re just going to want to stay out of it because they’re not going to want to end up getting sued.”
The Governor made the baseless allegation during a telephone town hall hosted by the Republican Party of Florida. A recording was posted by Mediaite after reporter Sarah Rumpf received a robocall that patched individuals who picked up into the conversation.
