Colorado Governor: Legalizing Marijuana Was 'Reckless'


As a former beer brewer perhaps he should just STFU?

What's really reckless is tacking felonies to citizens that posses a plant.
What's really reckless is keeping needed medicine from people of all ages.

What's really reckless for the Democratic Party is office holders like this guy shooting off at the mouth against popular opinion.

The decrease in DUI's? The decrease in overdose of other drugs/painkillers?
The increased tourism and tax dollars?

What please tell are these horrible things that the reckless legalization of cannabis hath wrought?

that no one was going to get hurt.

Now no one even has the excuse that they are scared of what might (but won't) happen when it is legalized.

things have been going pretty damn smoothly, at least from my perspective.

i'll still vote for him since he's a far sight better than the puke he's running against, but i'm not too happy with him.
