Welcome to the Farm! Crazy times here in CO, eh? Hopefully we don't get too big a knee-jerk reaction from the state legislature.

Hopefully we don't get too big a knee-jerk reaction from the state legislature.

Yea really. I was down at the capitol the other day and the entire Democratic caucus was talking about medical marijuana.

Besides - comments come into the legislature like run 20-1 against further regulation. The thing about pot is the only people that care about it want it legal and the people that don't have bigger fish to fry.

I think Senator Romer might introduce something that will throw off commercial growers - but the House Speaker, Terrance Carroll, laughed off regulatory language this year, I think his quote was something like "Coloradoans have important things to do . . ."

The problem, as I see it, is the proliferation and increasingly liberalized dispensary culture - the dispensary next to my house has a sign that is a smiley face with a joint hanging out of its mouth. It doesn't help that his only customers are 20-something males with three or four more people waiting in the car out in the parking lot.

Either way, the only people in trouble are the big commercial dispensaries in downtown Denver - and given the deals/rip-off's they offer patients - like "10% off meds" for signing up the dispensary as caregivers - I can't say I feel bad for 'em. Never mind some of the press and scrutiny these places and their financial backers have come under lately. I can think of ten dispensaries that, at least to me, appear little more than organized crime fronts.

Fellow Coloradoan here too, new to this forum.
Gotta agree about the dispensaries. They could be a little more subtle in their advertising. I am glad they're paying taxes now!
