REMEMBER, 45 PERCENT OF COLORADANS SAID NO TO POT

It seems to be overlooked that 45 percent of Colorado voters did not 
want legalized "recreational" marijuana in their midst when the vote 
on Amendment 64 was taken in 2012. That is a large percentage and is 
probably greater now, since we have seen the problems in the schools 
and the unexpected problems with edibles.

We have ubiquitous coverage of cannabis and the huge influx of the 
marijuana industry, and one could think it is a self-fulfilling 
prophecy from The Denver Post's articles.

Remember that nearly half of us did not want it. And we still have 
the black market.

If marijuana is bad for people, how can it be good for Colorado?
