Oh yes, I remember your sister from another thread.
Yes indeed, your sister must be the best authority on what’s happening in the whole state of CO - odd that so much news contradicts her.
It's quite likely that any such increase is largely if not entirely an effective relocation of the supply for nonlegalizing states - relocating either from those states or from abroad. One of the downsides of being among the first states to legalize.
Yes of course, dopers refuse to think there is a single thing negative about mj or legalizing it.
Which part of "downside" did you not understand? There are negatives to legality of marijuana, or alcohol - but they are outweighed by the negatives of their illegality.
Why would heroin junkies and meth freaks move to OR just because mj is legal?
You were talking about "grows" ... meth is not grown, period, and the opium poppies from which heroin is derived are not grown in this country.
Seems not much less likely than you being the best authority on what’s happening in your whole county.
ROTFLOL!
Hearing repeatedly from this district’s Fire Chief who communicates on a regular basis with the County Sheriff isn’t good enough for you? Articles in the local papers aren’t good enough? Op eds, letter to the editor, articles citing figures etc aren’t good enough for you?
More ROTFLOL.
Dream on.
I wonder why my comments were not clear to you.
I state above that use of illegal drugs increases when mj is leaglized.
Illegal meaning in particular heroin and meth. I did not say meth and heroin are grown here (freaking duh). The same thing happened in CO.
THe general filthy miasma of the drug culture and shady characters.
however, its one matter to use pot, its another for a govt and society to push it down our throats, which is being done in states where the stupid voters legalized it..
I live in such a state...
there is no way the constant radio,newspaper,etc deluge of "opportunities" is not affecting them...
“Yes indeed, your sister must be the best authority on what’s happening in the whole state of CO - odd that so much news contradicts her.”
You poor fella. You can’t get anything right lol. I have a sister in law that lives in Colorado. Not a sister.
She’s able to read and I know her to be honest & reliable. You? Not so much. See you project a prohibitionist’s ridicule & venom. This really don’t lend you any credibility when you make declarative statements with zero evidence to back it up.
For instance, if things were as bad in Oregon as you claim, it makes sense that you would have zero problems providing evidence to validate your claim. Instead, you write a very sad story that we are supposed to believe just because you wrote it. Yet, when I present my sister-in-law’s assertion to me about the city she lives in you reject it & you are childishly disparaging in the process.

Seems there is evidence to validate my sister in law’s assertions vs your story telling.
“who says pot does less damage than alcohol?.”
The Shafer Commission did just that in 1972. Here’s a link to get you started:

Potheads parrot the Soros mantras.
I don't know what those sources said, and I don't know how well you're summarizing them.
No, you said "illegal drug grows" increase.
Drunk nation.
Amen. It damned near killed me.
Potheads do the Soros dance.
Yes, illegal MJ grows INCREASE when MJ is legalized. Happening in CA, CO and most grows here are illegal - ie NOT permitted, NOT licensed. Absolutely the same in CA and CO.
My comment about increased other DRUG USE was separate.
Smoke too much, eh....
Sors $ has been financing groups promoting legalizing MJ for years. A doped up population is SO much easier to control since they have lost their ability to reason and at the same time think they’re smarter and on a higher level than everyone else. This is true of all the dopers I’ve known. Plus they must have their dope.
Irony’s lost on you huh?
