I remember the first time

I was on the beach in Mexico, and they had the 'tops optional' section of the beach. At first I was pretty distracted, to say the least, but by the second or third day, it seemed normal, and i had less whiplash. Sorta like legal pot, here in Colorado. After a while you get used to it and it's no big deal. Sure, the rightwingnut nay-sayers had all kinds of negative predictions, none of which have come true, as we enter the third year, and many states are looking to CO as a model, with the majority of voters (58%) in the US saying 'legalize it, don't criminalize it'.
Like booze, it's not for everyone, and should only be available to the 'over 21' crowd. Most importantly, it allows legal medical research for the medicinal qualities, that are REAL, and it frees the police/justice system to deal with REAL criminals, not pot smokers. Plus, it's had the wonderful by-product of kicking the CO economy into high gear, which is all good, (except for the traffic), as people come to visit, then move here, from all over.
That being said, this is an interesting, informational article about the 'pot scene', and pot-tourism here in Colorado.
