SKY HASN'T FALLEN WITH POT LEGAL IN COLORADO

Dear Editor: Citizens are ahead of politicians when it comes to support 
for changing cannabis (marijuana) laws. (Half of Wisconsin voters 
support marijuana legalization, Nov. 18, 2013). According to polls, 
support for changing cannabis laws, including RE-legalizing cannabis and 
regulating the plant like alcohol, is on the rise and perhaps has 
reached the tipping point to end cannabis prohibition. One of the few 
obstacles is stubborn politicians who resist representing constituents. 
The cannabis issue easily exposes which politicians are the worst at 
representing constituents, and they should be replaced.

A sane argument to continue caging responsible adults for using the
relatively safe, extremely popular, God-given plant cannabis doesn't
exist. Colorado has RE-legalized cannabis and the sky has not even
pretended to fall in.
