As state lawmakers consider eliminating criminal penalties for possessing small amounts of psychedelic mushrooms, some L.A. County cannabis dispensaries openly sell them.
The cannabis dispensary in a run-down shopping center in coastal Los Angeles County offers the standard fare: pre-rolled joints, vape pens, a wide range of edibles and a selection of smoking accessories.
As evidence of their therapeutic benefits grows and states including Oregon and Colorado legalize or decriminalize magic mushrooms, some Democrats in Sacramento are pushing to make a similar change in California.Senate Bill 58, currently wending its way through the Legislature,criminal penalties for possessing, growing and sharing small amounts of several psychedelic substances including psilocybin, ibogaine and DMT.
When it’s their turn to shop, they’re buzzed past a locked door into another high-ceilinged room to survey the psychoactive wares. “I didn’t realize they sell ‘shrooms,” one customer said in the parking lot after purchasing a packet of cannabis edibles earlier this month. “That’s crazy. I might have to come back sometime.”
Describing illegal dispensaries as “a really big problem,” Moss said that despite the Sheriff’s Department’s efforts, the illicit industry persists because it’s so lucrative. The experience in Peru was challenging but transformative, Gould said, and he “came out the other end sort of reset in a lot of ways and with new understandings and perspectives on what I was struggling through.”
