Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

If you buy from a legal Illinois dispensary, you should be safe either way. They put it in packaging that has no detectable smell.
Don't worry. The lack of a detectable smell has never stopped cops from 'smelling' marijuana before.
True, but at least just buying from a dispensary shouldn't be a worry in and of itself.
What if I repackage and go to a friend's house? Laws like this restrict what consumers are allowed to do.
I'm absolutely not in favor of the law, I didn't mean to give that impression.
IDK what dispensaries you're visiting. But, even through the manufacturer's packaging and the dispensary's packaging it was quite loud in my car driving home.
Not true of the dispensary I visited a few months ago while in a legal state. You could smell cannabis in the parking lot from the building and smell it once I got it back to the car where the smell lingered for hours even after double bagging it.
I can't speak of dispensaries in other states. I've been to several in Illinois and that is how they all do it. There is a heavy cannabis smell when they actually let you inside the place where you buy it and maybe if a cop was hanging right outside the driveway into the dispensary specifically to catch people leaving, they might smell it on you, but considering they hire off-duty cops to be security, I doubt it.
So funny as every dispo has a smell. Of weed. If the jars and containers are smell proof where's it coming from.?.
No way every container is perfectly sealing. And if even 1 I buy leaks slightly it will smell like weed in my car even if I don't open the container. So is it really fair to use smell as the 1 factor needed to allowing search.
