A “mobile pot shop” that has been rolling up to local high schools this week has been taken off the road after sparking an uproar among supporters of medical marijuana.
The truck — emblazoned with twin cannabis leaves and a message offering “free samples” to anyone over age 18 — has been raising eyebrows from Lehi to Salt Lake City as part of a campaign against Proposition 2. The group behind the tactic says it’s trying to highlight flaws baked into the medical marijuana initiative, such as a requirement for only 600 feet of separation between a dispensary and a school.
