ive smoked weed on my own porch everywhere ive ever lived as an adult and as of yet, even where i had close neighbors, not one complaint ever made it to me.
Ciggs on the other hand, ive been asked on more then one occasion if i could take a walk while smoking a cigg because neighbors were outside with family or kids were out with parents. And for that, i oblige, i am totally aware how obnoxiously gross my cigs smell, have seen it trigger peoples asthma, and know all to well how impressionable a 10yo is by an adults actions. (that happened mainly in the KC neighborhood i lived, very close together houses separated by picket fences) In KC i actually started just defaulting to taking a walk around the block while i had a cigg unless it was bitter cold or icy out.
