I didn't like them as renters and used it to scare the hell out of them so they would stop it. They left after that which made me happy. Pot is legal in Alaska. 4 oz. When the hippies got control of the state house of representatives in the mid 70's, they made it legal. I was the State Director of Alcoholism and drug abuse, so they got no push back from me, which is usually what happens. I htought it was a great idea and eveyone knew it-lol. I know that has to be a hard one to swallow-lol. Me running Alaska's drug policies. It was sort of cool the way it happened. Terry Miller was a liberal Republican (imagine) from Fairbanks and his district loved him, so he said: I'll introduce the bill because I can get away with it in my district. Almost every member of the house dems at that time was young (around 30) and smoked pot-lol. And the governor at the time Jay Hammond, was a liberal Republican poet, who lived in Naknek and was married to a Yupik.
