    I appreciate that you try to help people, but you should preface this with where you are based, else this advice is kinda useless for most people, because it may very well be simply untrue for them. This is only true for a few extremely authorial places. If you live in a liberal democratic system it is almost certainly legal for you to be high or drunk in public, if you do not cause trouble. And don’t collapse on the sidewalk or something.

      Whatever definition of “liberal democratic system” you are using is very narrow and not the norm. Marijuana is illegal in most of the world especially for non medical uses. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_cannabis

      Just because a thing is common wherever you live doesn’t mean it’s not illegal, and some jack ass cop won’t decide to make you spend a night in jail.

        Being high on most drugs is actually not illegal in most places, owning, selling or consuming them is.

          That is true for private locations, that is not true for public locations. Most places definition of public intox includes alcohol or any other drugs.

            Perhaps where you live. Public intoxication - within reasonable limits - absolutely legal here, and no one would accept or even propose something else.
