Legal weed has ruined Colorado

College was much the same 50 years ago. Everyone was smoking everywhere every day. Those who couldn't function as a student and smoke flunked out fast.

It's brutal I agree.

I literally hire chubby potheads, over twitchy in-shape dudes.
Much easier to deal with occasional bouts of laziness and lack of attention to detail. Much easier.

If they are in shape, tatted and attention span of a gerbil, as twitchy as Michael J. Fox or Stephen Hawking, do not hire lol.

You lazy pothead.

Those problems are everywhere, not just "legal" states.
I smoked weed since my teens.
Glad I've quit the "habit" the past few months.

Me and my wife live in Colorado about 50 miles north of Denver.What we have noticed is that more relatives from out of state come here to visit us since marijuana is legal. We, Grandpa and Grandma get to see our kids and grand kids and great grand kids more often also brothers and sisters Usually every two months we have visitors. I know some of them use marijuana and I hope they don't get caught taking it home with them out of state.

Also from where I am from I have seen that people who have learning issues and don't use drugs have a better chance in finding and holding a job. I believe it is a side effect because of the attitudes and the marijuana culture. People in the drug culture are more prone to loosing their jobs. Some people at work here will argue with job supervisors and tell them that marijuana is legal and they smoke it anyway when supervision is absent.

What video?

Nevermind, yeah I did watch that video a couple of days ago. Marijuana is not the drug leading to homelessness. That is the heroin.

They are fuc*ing retards. Yeah alcohol is legal too, most jobs you'll be fired on the spot if you are consuming while on the clock, or walk into work shit faced drunk. Legal weed is no different. It's legal status has no bearing on you being able to consume it on the clock or show up to work stoned.

no offense but it will be legal everywhere soon so stop worrying

explain that to a group of ten pot smokers and maybe 2-3 of them will understand the correlation.

You must admit it was great lighting one and listening to Led Zeppelin or The Who's latest album for the first time. Not to mention Pink Floyd, the Beatles, Jefferson Airplane. I love the flashbacks. No wonder these suckers are lost today. There's no musical accompaniment.

It was Emerson, Lake, and Palmer for me when I was 15.

Brain Salad Surgery, for the win!...

feedback: stay out of politics and the business of other human's inalienable rights.

Then there's this.

Is crime up? Or do they just bum for the money?

Anyone who starts a post by saying, “Let me preface this by saying that I love ____,” only to proceed to bashing ______, doesn’t actually love _____.

Nice try, OP.

I have lived here for 66 years, and I have smoked the shit since I was 11 years old. And I can tell you for sure, EVERYTHING ABOUT IT AND THE STATE HAS CHANGED (for the worst, exponentially)!.

Pin head!

BUT have you heard of A LITTLE Thing called THE NATIONAL GUARDS. Move them in MOVE the TRASH OUT IN BODY BAGS.

There wouldn’t be any problems if Colorado if all the other states weren’t tyrannous prohibition prisons. The problem isn’t Colorado, it’s all of the other states that jail people for plants.

Everything you said is true about CO where I also have lived for decades.
Before we moved to a new place I called the crime stats for this area.
The woman doing this for 35 years said NEW types of crime have shown up in the last 3 years since CO legalized pot.

There's a new kind of filth running around active all night. Crude, disgusting people ruining neighborhoods. We're seeing LOTS of meth, mental illness, many from the southeastern states. Bedbugs, scabies, trash thrown all over, vomit, dealers, theft, breakins cars and homes, panhandlers on just about every corner who are obviously not from here. Violent crime, however is not on the list as of yet.
The $$ given to house the homeless never quite reaches the homeless with expensive (25m dollar project to house 41 residents not including future upkeep_). Do gooders NEED the homeless. The more the merrier because it's more $$ for them.

I don't recognize this town anymore. The cops have their hands full, and tell me the only way to find some semblance of normalcy is to leave to a nearby town.
These bas*ards are given cellphones, new clothing and backpacks, tarp, a monthly food and cash card, (lots of ambulance and ER service, free medical) and trash everyplace they pass through.

I could go on.. but yes.. nationalize the legalization of pot so these people get to plague other states instead of just ours.

Downtown Denver was a shithole with shitty people lining the streets long before legalization. I don’t smoke though I’m a proponent of it.

Backed up by pure facts (sarcasm). Please provide the long list of dispensaries that have closed. The only ones I have seen close their doors are ones that have been raided. I'm not sure where you live but try walking down that shitty 16th street mall. How many people do you see openly smoking dope and pan handling? Exits off 70/25/36 have young pan handlers. Are you blind? Nothing new and it is not going away but I'd say it is getting worse. Show any proof that weed is slowing down because the profits/sales have been increasing. You have a gay governor that openly welcomes the dope smoking tourism dollars. I suspect you are a doper yourself. Cooperative coalition? What are you? You sound like a full on rainbow soy boy hipster. Or maybe you need to go back to LA where you came from.

Thread: Weed didn't ruin Colorado, the Democrats did-

This post nails it.

Democrats, not weed.
