Not a Subjective Smell
I read the letter “Subjective Smell” in last week’s Independent. I strongly disagree with what Mary Perez of Lompoc wrote.
I live outside of Carpinteria city limits, where one cannabis greenhouse after another is lined up. And I smell cannabis every day when I drive into town.
As far as the smell from cannabis, let us be honest. The smell is not subjective. It is real and smells like a skunk. The smell is also nauseating and nasty. It harms the health of some, and certainly is not good for children. I wonder if the letter-writer would like to live next to greenhouses or fields of cannabis with the skunk smell permeating the environment every day?
