United States opens Legal Pot Industry to Public | Prohibited Drugs for Sale
Marijuana and other prohibited drugs are now freely available in United States after the state voters approved the legalization of pot industry in November 2012. The first recreational marijuana industry in US reportedly opened its doors to the public right on the very first day of 2014. The first recreational drug spot in the U.S. opened in Colorado, where customers stood in lines for hours to buy legal marijuana after presenting nothing more than identification.
Thousands of people celebrated the end of drug prohibition and several drug users traveled from other states to Denver just to buy drugs from the legal market. Around 37 Marijuana stores across the state were fully licensed and opened to sell the drugs to anyone 21 or over for any purpose, according to the official lists and Denver Post research.
"In a historic swirl of commerce and cannabis, the world's first stores licensed to sell marijuana legally to anyone 21 or older opened in Colorado on Wednesday, January 01, 2014," Denverpost news said.
