I’m was just in Tokyo, Shinjuku area. Around 5-6am while walking back from Golden Gai I saw guys in suits stumbling back; one guy face planted pretty hard and there was some blood.

Overall it was fun as a foreigner but it’s weird to see this as acceptable but marijuana (even medically) as not acceptable.

Ironic when you think about islamic countries which ban alchohol but allow hashish to be smoked in public....

FWIW, many cities in Saudi Arabia including the capital Riyadh ban even tobacco in public: you need to drive 30km out of the town to the city limits to find a cluster of hookah bars.
