Marijuana activist will hand out free joints to vaccinated NYers on 4/20

New York Post

It may sound like a doobie-ous plan — but it’s now totally legal.

A longtime marijuana activist has organized an effort to dole out free joints in Union Square Park on 4/20 – the unofficial marijuana holiday – to anyone who shows up with a valid COVID-19 vaccination record card.

“Krispy Kreme is giving away donuts [for those with proof of vaccination], the least the medical marijuana movement can do is take a stand up for science,” Dana Beal, the 74-year-old organizer of Tuesday’s “Joints for Jabs” giveaway told The Post Monday.

Tuesday’s event, Beal said, is “our chance to say thank you Gov. [Andrew] Cuomo” — after the governor signed a bill into law last month legalizing the adult-use of recreational marijuana in New York.
