"Just leave then"

Fine, I'll take the bait.

I moved here by choice, my "ancestors" have nothing to do with Hong Kong.

I also don't wage a war against my neighbours who are simply trying to "enjoy a smoke".

I still don't appreciate when my house smells of cannabis when I leave the window open and don't turn on the fans I have in the balcony.

My neighbours could turn on a fan to dissipate the smoke, they don't it's inconsiderate, but I'm not going to ruin their day over it.

Moving over this, does not make any sense, the whole argument of "If you don't like it then leave" reeks of ignorant entitlement.

YOU are part of the problem, not part of the solution.

    > Weed smoke has a scent to it.

    It stinks, it has a reek. People don't like the way it smells, and smoking it around others who aren't smoking is just plain rude. Smoke your sacred herb, but do it where it won't make people wonder why it smells like a skunk died nearby.

    You make a lot of very strange assumptions about who I am and what I've done with my life.

    And you'll note, I don't stop them, nor complain - I merely WISH they were a little more considerate in their partaking of the herb, I'd be less irritated.

    Additionally, they don't have "every right" it's entirely illegal here, but I've no interest in calling the police over it - as again, I just wish they were naturally a little more considerate over their use of shared space than having a desire to punish them over it.
