Law enforcement makes the argument that they need to put the bad guys out of business. The quickest way to put the bad guys out of business is to identify them and take away their funding to continue to be bad guys. I think the question would be at this point, who are the bad guys? Are the bad guys the citizens of Colorado who are exercising their rights under amendment 20 of the state constitution or are the bad guys the cartels and their surrogates here who traffic in pot, methamphetamine, misery and murder? A huge percentage of the cartel revenue is contraband pot. Let's defund them of their main revenue stream from cannabis and free up law enforcement to pursue the tweakers who traffic in misery and death.

Our local municipalities need revenue. How is a draconian law that promises to drive this industry back underground going to help them? It will burden law enforcement and deprive local communities of revenue that would be be made available to them were they to take control of this situation in a sane and humanitarian way...just as they have done with the immigration situation.
"FREE UP" LMAO YOU THINK LEO WANTS TO BE "FREE"TO DO OTHER THINGS? thay can do that now but they choose not to they are the ones pushing for this to be illegal.it's more like they want to be free to come bust you're door in.free to bust you're family up. you do know they still look at mj as the root cause of all evil right? + it's a real easy job to bust mj users.i mean they did'nt really sign up to break a sweat or anything like that....
