Don’t trust studies much. Traffic accidents are way up though.

What's the evidence for accidents being up? (Is it a study? If so, why do you trust it?)

With the pot vaping and the drugged driving, I think the dea is going to set up the dispensaries once the industry grows a bit more and the government media puts out stories against pot. You know, most banks won’t take the dispensaries’ cash. It’s still a schedule 1 drug federally.

I’m just making an observation. IMO, each state should decide on drugs, not feds. Like healthcare, the States should have sovereignty here. But with respect to firearms, if it’s in the BOR, the states have to respect individual rights, so for example a state can’t pass a law against freedom of speech as well.

Is this fake news? I hate fake news no matter where it comes from. Please cite your sources. I have no dog in the hunt when it comes to pot but I like to be properly informed.

So crime dropped near pot shots after marijuana was legalized. Am I to believe that crime near pot shops was higher before it was legalized? IOW when pot was a crime more reports were entered than when it wasn’t. You got be high to write stories like this, but then it is a Coloradical story.
