Those living on luxurious Martha’s Vineyard may appear to have it all. Yet when it comes to pot, it’s all smoke and mirrors.
Winter Haven, Massachusetts, residents who use marijuana say the town’s two dispensaries have run out or are running out of pot as state regulators mandate how much of the substance can be transported to the island via boat or plane because of the federal government’s stance on marijuana being an illegal controlled substance, according to the Associated Press.
And now an 81-year-old resident is suing the state’s Cannabis Control Commission on its position after being unable to buy marijuana at her local dispensary, whose owner said he sold his last gummy last week.
The commission says that finding a solution to the island’s pot problem, seven years after the state legalized marijuana, is a top priority, according to the wire service.
