Legalization just leads to a host of problems.

Expect it to get worse. The Potheads on FR will be making even more excuses.
I'm waiting for the "those stats mean nothing" crowd any min.

It is good that a State has opportunity to test legalization. There is a problem, however, when using the words “marijuana related,” namely that, just because the substance is involved does not mean it is a *cause.* Of course it will be more prevalent in accompanying various incidents in life because it is more widely used by the population. Beware the circular argument.

If marijuana causes the population to be overly lazy, irresponsible, immoral, and less proficient when operating a motor vehicle, this is a problem. But it is a difficult problem to measure honestly.

Now people in CO are complaining about the offensive smell emanating from MJ second hand smoke.

Some people think we are suffocating in marijuana smoke since legalization up here in WA State (actually it is forest fire smoke). In fact, I have yet to smell the stuff. Public mj smoking is illegal anyway. I guess many vape now, but I’m not seeing vapes either. My town and virtually all the other small towns around here (eastern WA) have banned recreational pot stores. Only one town has one and it is 30 miles away.

Exactly what I thought. Legalization is stupid, unless you MAKE users take full responsibility for their actions. I knew what the outcome would be because the USA has become a country that refuses to hold people accountable.

Because the war on drugs, like drug prohibition of the 1920s was such a blooming success!

Just love how the Drug Warrior contingent on FR (who call themselves 'conservative') just can't wait to increase the size and scope of government by re-imposing MJ prohibition, even though the citizens of a sovereign state voted overwhelmingly to end it.

Next thing you know, they'll be clamoring for Holder to come in and enforce the federal MJ prohibition laws in Colorado (10th Amendment be damned). Commerce Clause, doncha know ...

I’m a proponent for legalization, but it is kind of hard to argue those numbers.

This new report paints an even bleaker picture of what is happening in Colorado since it legalized the possession, sale, and consumption of marijuana.

Amendment 64 was not enacted until the very end of 2012. Something to keep in mind since the cited stats appear to track things before the change in law went into effect.

These stats are awesome,

Unfortunately every single one of them predates the actual legalization, which did not take effect until 1/1/14.

The title of the article is simply wrong.
