Reader: Medical marijuana legalization didn't lead to doom, so why should Amendment 64?

It's been 12 years since medical marijuana was legalized in Colorado, and none of these predicted harms have materialized. How can these clowns expect to be taken seriously?

They shouldn't be -- as for the existence of cannabis-users arguing that Amendment 20 was a mistake, so we should not vote for Amendment 64, it is very much a curiosity of nature and very much not material aid to the prohibitionists, but how pathetic that they join our enemies and ape their failed tactics!
