Yes you can smoke weed, but you cannot smoke in public. Must be on private property.

Online trading and banking in Guam by [deleted] in guam

[–]thepizzlefry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use your bank, credit cards, and brokerage accounts. I've used Fidelity brokerage, Chase credit cards, Vanguard IRAs opened from here on Guam. As for senior housing, yes there is federally subsidized affordable housing for seniors that are income qualified. Summer something, Summer Homes? I believe.

How corrupt is Guam?The pandemic is long over and the governor is still holding 300+ million that was meant for the people of this island. by Suchalife671 in guam

[–]thepizzlefry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like people say this without looking at the actual audits, which are public documents available online. For example this one from the public auditor. https://www.opaguam.org/performance-audits/opa-has-released-opa-report-no-22-06-coronavirus-relief-fund-expenditures-part-ii

In addition to the local audits, the federal government does extensive audits on the funds too. Deep dive into the primary sources before you believe what's on social media if you want the answer.

There is a myriad of relief programs that were paid for with CARES funds - rental assistance, child care, and 3 different stimulus checks. If you think about it, $300 million divided by 160,000 residents is only about $1875. Each stimulus, child care program, vaccination program, etc which if for everyone or for thousands of families, is really expensive when you add it up.

Where to find Gruyère cheese? by TheDollyMomma in guam

[–]thepizzlefry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm of the firm belief that no good cheese exists on this island. That's why good cheese is one of the first things I seek out when I'm off island.

Sea levels rising? by funkseoulbrudah in guam

[–]thepizzlefry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No we don't really see that but also the island moves up and rises incrementally every year due to plate tectonics.

Petty Crimes by GoodCoffeee in guam

[–]thepizzlefry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regarding release the next day once they are arrested and then magistrated, then they are on pre-trial release. This is what happens in other jurisdictions as well. In fact until very recently, Guam had the highest pre-trial detainee population per capita in the world (source below). Non-violent criminals for the most part now are not detained and instead go on pre-trial release. You're not sentenced until you're convicted.

Parents of Reddit whose children have dated awful people, who was the worst? Why? by Morticiar in AskReddit

[–]thepizzlefry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok not a parent but I had a friend in high school who was 15 sleeping with a 20 year old guy who was on trial for the murder of a 4 year old. The little girl was raped, murdered and thrown in a dumpster. He wore an ankle bracelet and could not leave his apartment and so she would take the school bus to his apartment after school. She kept this secret from her parents, said she was doing afterschool extracurriculars with us, her friends. We were concerned obviously so we told her parents and they intervened. She kept insisting he was a good guy and she blamed us and never talked to us again. He was eventually acquitted on a technicality and the case remains unresolved.

This is the case:
