The thread article referenced a study done and published.
It read:
”The results imply that an additional dispensary in a neighborhood leads to a reduction of 17 crimes per month per 10,000 residents, which corresponds to roughly a 19 percent decline relative to the average crime rate over the sample period……
It may reduce crime, but only in the illegal sales and production of marijuana areas. But if the other crimes are going to increase, there isn’t any connection to the determination of allowing the drug to be legal to lower crime amounts that have increased as the headline leads people to think.
According to the Denver Post, Denver’s violent crime rate is rising faster than any other large city in the country. “Several categories went up without any clear identifiable cause with the largest rise in violent crime rate last year compared to other large cities.”
So how can they say there is less crime in the state when there is more, factually more than any other city in increase in the country? Article is a lie.

So how can they say there is less crime in the state
