DC Woman tired of smelling her neighbor's marijuana sues him, and wins

You believe it’s ok to randomly subject others to drugs?
Only you would skip over the fact that I am siding with you. marijuana causes football players to not make attentive plays, for our schools, this spells disaster.
 
mari- juana-juana-jauna-jauna, once in the brain you can no longer memorize the facts, facts and infor-mation-mation-mation
 

WASHINGTON — A D.C. man was told by a court this week he is forbidden from smoking cannabis inside his home, after a neighbor sued him. In a lawsuit, the neighbor claimed that years of breathing in his marijuana smoke had harmed her health.

Northwest D.C. resident and health researcher Josefa Ippolito-Shepherd says for several years the smell of marijuana smoke seeped in through vents in the duplex wall she shared with Thomas Cackett, a 73-year-old restaurant manager.

When what you do on your property lingers over into someone else's you are now interfering in their rights and property.

I’m sure there will be some argument about other odors, like burning a wood stove, smoking meat, or bbq’s that some neighbor might find offensive.
I like the smell of good weed, though I rarely partake of that anymore.
 
Discussing the risks of pot with potheads is like arguing with democrats. More often the same thing.
exactly, I knew a man, well I knew him as a voice, who was a professional baseball player, he was talking about how he was home run happy before one night at a club, he ran into a man in a dark long coat, and in that coat was some marijuana, and just sniffing it he went on to become hitless and the ball wouldn't CARRY as far to make a home run. So professional sports again agrees with you.
 
I also knew a guy at a job who was smoking at his lunch time, came back in, fired up his machine, but because of the marijuana, forgot how to make the tacos, and it took me 45 minutes in the drive thru to get through with one other guy in line! hate marijuana!
 
I know no one who developed lung disease from asbestos. I know several people who have had serious issues with pot, including cannabinoid hypermesis.
In spite of its practical uses in construction, asbestos is banned.
Do the math.
Should we ban peanut butter? After all ‘several’ people have peanut allergies.
 
Do people subject others to peanut dust randomly in public? Do people force-feed peanuts to others randomly in public?
Do people force others to ingest their penicillin?
You are subjected to all kinds of things in public. Car fumes, diesel exhaust, cigarette smoke, the stink of feces in certain cities, etc. of all those marijuana blown by the wind is the least harmful. Now, I’m not condoning some pothead smoking his neighbor out in a duplex though which the OP opening left out.

Bad precedent ... how long until another court finds that someone cooking meat in their own home harms their health?

You know there are people who would claim it and I'm in court nearly every day with judges who would believe it.
