Seen at O’Hare Airport

O’Hare Airport in Chicago has Cannabis Amnesty Boxes. This allows people to ditch their weed before going through airport security, although we saw them in the concourses after security. The boxes look like a ballot or mail drop box, with slots that don’t allow you to stick your arm in to retrieve any goodies. (I’m sure some people have tried.) I thought about taking a photo of one, but decided against it lest some airport security person confiscate my phone. This article explains that the boxes are rarely used. I don’t know if this idea has spread to other states, but it seems like a humane idea. Sure beats prison in a foreign country where cannabis is illegal.
