Survey: 1 in 5 Texans More Open to Marijuana After Lockdown

What else are you going to do?

Some people didn't know if they were going to keep their job, and even worse, people were stressed out, worried if they would get the virus that has claimed half a million people.

Understanding this, a recent survey showed that 22% of Texans now understand why potheads smoke pot!

The survey done by Recovery.org says that 1 out of 5 people in Texas now have a relaxed view toward recreational marijuana.

The other half of those surveyed understand why people used other controlled substances.
