To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

Interesting that the reasons these people don’t want legalized pot has nothing to do with the claims made in the suit. There are already laws about odor, running a business that is a nuisance, etc. Just enforce the laws on the books.

The CO legislature didn’t legalize pot. The citizens voted by referendum to enshrine legalized pot in the state constitution.

My Colorado town outlawed all pot grows/shops/etc. by citizen vote. Which is perfectly legal too.

Imagine, someone besides the federal govt making local decisions.

Grand Junction and Mesa County (Unincorporated areas) have done so as well. I hope that means they also don't get the tax revenues for the schools.

Ah, so you're saying that your town has greater powers than the State, that it can just ignore portions of the State Constitution it doesn't like? I guess that means your municipal court can simply refuse to hear a case because they don't like you, or perhaps they can simply drag it on forever, or maybe they can sell tickets to get into a fast track to get your case heard.

Art II, Section 6. Equality of justice.
Courts of justice shall be open to every person, and a speedy remedy afforded for every injury to person, property or character; and right and justice should be administered without sale, denial or delay.
