What is scary is that these same frickin lies are being told to our kids as a way to encourage them to use.
Hey, we didn’t vote for it!
Smoking pole is also condoned.
Yup. Even though it was a joke, there was a lot of truth to it.
"...can be exponentially more potent than a joint.
What comes first the dope or the dope?
Alcohol is fine in moderation, but we don’t want to bring up all the deaths by self inflicted alcohol poisoning now do we? Water is great for you, in fact needed. But (as we learned not too long ago) you can kill yourself with it as well. Maybe we should outlaw more substances for the greater good, comrade. I hear some kids at my school are allergic to peanuts. Need to ban them; oh wait, they did because the kids at risk are too damn stoopid to be educated by their parents. Point is, people are going to do stupid things; I don’t want my liberties infringed en masse because of others poor decisions (hold THEM accountable, NOT me) no matter what I choose to partake just so long as I don’t hurt or otherwise damage another citizens rights or liberties. You need to re-focus on personal responsiblity as does this society and quit punishing society through a politician because we can’t hold the offender accountable.
Absolutely!

I was just wondering if Colorado voters are rethinking their votes.

Apparently the legalization of pot hasn’t reduced the illegal pot from Mexico. Guess we know why the drug dealers were so supportive of the move.
Too much revenue to give up, I’d wager. Besides, the Taxifornians have taken over there big time.
Time will tell.
Follow the (tax) money. Alcohol is ‘evil’ so they tax it. Tobacco is ‘wicked’ and it gets a slap tax. Pot is ‘holy smoke’ and they tax that too. LIEberalism is a religion full of ironic, moronic hyper critics.
The doctors say pot use causes changes to the brain. In other words there is scientific evidence that pot causes brain damage with even light use.
Not only that but it effects the DNA which results in changes to offspring.
Not to mention the drug lords and corruption this is increasing.
Look what thousands of years of Cannabis use did for the Hindus and Arabs, while Western Civilization was refusing to use it as an intoxicant, and was very much involved with alcohol (and advancing).
There’s an old saying where I live—”Let other people do your experimenting for you.” Colorado is an experiment and we’re beginning to see some results.
But hey, guns in the home are dangerous so let’s ban and confiscate them
They tax booze because they can and it raises a LOT of money.
Do pot edibles give one The Munchies?
