    You can carry on by not posting bullshit that you can't back up. Or not posting at all about things you're clueless about.

    Maxie, can you tell us where you are getting all this disinformation? You must have heard it somewhere right? Just curious as to who could have fooled you so completely

    All news in general. If you think any of it is unbiased, then you are extremely gullible. Look at how the national media will support liberal agendas and brush conservative views under the rug.

    It's not a conspiracy, it's a fact...

    Okay, then why am I watching, reading and hearing all of these problems with legalized marijuana from "liberal" outlets?

    Very simple... Who do you think fund the liberals the most? That's right! Pharma companies.

    Weed cannot be patented, therefor the pharma companies can't make money on them.

    Ah, so it was a conspiracy. Thanks. My low-70s IQ couldn't grasp it.

    Well what else would you call it? You've made claims that have no scientific backing and still can't find links. The media still showing them right?

    Another conspiracy could be the amount of freedom one has. Losing control... Etc...

    And just because someone is a democrat, doesn't mean they aren't stupid. I mean here you are talking about marijuana ODs and you are supposed to be a smart conservative!!!!

    They didn't think the law through. All kinds of ill effects are now beginning to show themselves. They're newspeople who report on news and this is news. It's the reality vs. what was supposed to have occurred.

    As for links, they're there. It's not my job to look them up for you. Good Lord. Does everyone lead you by the dick to take a piss? I'm just telling you what is happening on the ground here in Colorado. Believe it or not, I don't really care. It will be legalized in California before long and you can experience it for yourself. You can't even take your kid to a free concert in the park or a carnival without fear they'll get a contact high. Someone can drink a beer next to me and I'm not impacted. It's not the case when someone is smoking a joint. I've had to have conversations with my son about marijuana that should have been delayed a decade. It's fucking ridiculous.

    It's no big deal. We'll leave CO because of it, and the state will lose our tax revenue and our business office. We won't be missed.

    They reply... "No worries, the added revenue from the tax dollars earned from cultivation and sale trumps your business revenue"

    As for you trying to play "the links are there and it's not my job to find them" is a baseless argument. In fact, all it does is discredit your statement. It's just an opinion until you can back it up with facts.

    The burden of proof is on you good sir...

    That's exactly right. CO doesn't care about my income or our business. Of course, thousands of other people are making the same decision. Those that own or run businesses tend not to smoke weed. Those squares are the people that actually hire other people. Collectively, the State of Colorado will care. Like Portland will discover, you can't build an economy on coffeehouses and second-hand hipster boutiques. The state business development office was the first to complain, by the way, even before the Fraternal Order of Police.

    And it's called the internet. If you're too lazy to look it up for yourself, it's not my problem. My only penalty will be that you remain ignorant, which isn't a problem for me at all.

    You really seem to know Colorado media much better than do I. Congratulations.

    That you have been so indisputably brainwashed on the subject should make you wonder, how many other things you are quite possibly completely wrong about because you "saw it on TV"?

    Nah like I told you before, if you don't want your opinions respected, then give the same bullshit answer.

    But since I want my opinions to be respected... I decided to do research.

    http://swampland.time.com/2014/01/06/why-legal-weed-is-working-in-colorado/

    This took me 5 minutes to find this article, which supports weed and small businesses. It also explains that the small business owners are actually supporting the new movement.

    Point, mags... Maxiep's turn
