Now that Marijuana is legal in California, can I use it everywhere?

San Diego criminal defense attorney answers an online question about marijuana use in California in this video. Marijuana is legal to consume both recreationally and medically in the state, but there are still rules about when and where you can consume it. While legal to purchase for anyone over 21, marijuana, much like alcohol, remains a controlled substance, regulated by a state agency. Private citizens are not able to sell marijuana without proper licensing, and there are limits to the amount of marijuana you can produce. Mr. Tegnelia explains the similarities between alcohol laws and marijuana laws, helping illustrate the controls California keeps in place on the commodity.
