NO TO LEGALIZING MARIJUANA

I think that marijuana should not be made legal for recreational use
because there is no good way to judge impairment caused by the drug.
The Denver Post says on the matter: "The evolving science of testing
for marijuana, and the lack of consensus over how to measure
impairment creates challenges for lawmakers, police and prosecutors,
not to mention users." It goes on to say how the number of fatal car
crashes from marijuana is rising. Legalizing marijuana will make our
communities more dangerous for everyone.
