There certainly are a lot of issues at stake here in Colorado when it comes to marijuana. We smokers have a Fed-gripe and several state/county worries.

On a Federal level, marijuana ought to be taken OFF of the Dangerous Drugs Schedule. Tobacco and alcohol both are certainly  extremely dangerous drugs.  Miss-used pharmaceuticals are a BIG problem. Heroin, crack cocaine and speed each is a huge detrimental problem. But pot ought to be de-listed…not just down listed. Two things would happen…banks could do business with dispensaries causing fewer robberies and making payroll easier.  Also the Federal Government could finally fund the marijuana research that our society needs to know about, such as cancer remediation, help with PTSD, cure for epilepsy and on and on.

Now, as to our various City Councils perfidy. Folks, know who you are voting for.  Many of these women and men who actually run our communities are still very skeptical of everything marijuana. We all need to tell our representatives that we like our new-found ‘freedoms’ as well as what we don’t like.  Perhaps some of the large marijuana grow ops should do more community outreach.  Yes it has taken our various neighborhoods a long time to grow into an acceptance of such a large, new industry. To some folks it may look as tho the state has “gone to pot”. However more than there being a dispensary on every street corner, there might actually be two liquor stores on every street. Plus every restaurant sells booze and all the sporting events sell booze. We are encouraged to drink beer outside at our food fests in Denver.  But where are we allowed to smoke pot? As far as pot business’s flooding into our neighborhoods goes, the City Council has zoned and permitted the grow ops and dispensaries to be where they currently are. Parts of Denver did indeed look like a ghost town ten years ago. Now, I see very few empty store fronts and I never see empty factories or warehouses for lease.

As far as the smell goes…would you rather have another dog food factory in your neighborhood? Would you rather have the water treatment plant in your back yard or more Commerce City oil refineries? Hey, these places smell awful, but employ a lot of people; lets keep the jobs all here in the Denver Metro area. Let’s quit carping about things we cannot change.

And lastly, the many and various counties in Colorado need to allow us citizens to grow our own home stash outside. Instead of forcing us to go to a Dispensary to buy our medicine and pay exorbitant taxes on it…we need to be allowed to grow our own home stash, at home, in our backyards in the SUNLIGHT. Don’t get horn-swaggled into trying to grow12 plants indoors. It’ll never pay for it self, it is not economical  and it is NOT GREEN. You want to see your electric bill go up…buy 2 or 3 indoor grow lights and leave them on for 14 or 15 hours everyday.  Plus, the electrical wiring in my house is over 50 years old and that kind of sustained over-usage could cause a fire.

Folks, marijuana is not a very difficult  plant to grow and smoke. Your children won’t go blind if they look at it growing in my backyard. Just keep your kids out of my (locked) backyard, please.

Over the next four to eight years, most of North America will legalize marijuana and then there won’t be any of this leakage of Colorado pot into Kansas or Nebraska. The good people of Nebraska, Iowa and Missouri can grow their own dyno weed. I know they know how.

I can legally walk into a tobacco shop and buy tobacco products grown all around this world. Shop owners  can legally buy tobacco from Jamaica, Egypt or Haiti or Honduras or Virginia and sell to their community in Illinois or New York or Washington D.C.  Why can’t I buy some Humbolt County grown pot here in Denver?

We have a long way to go with this currant quasi-legal marijuana experiment in terms of adjusting the laws, rules and regulations…a long way to go. Our City Council’s elected officials need to embrace what we have’ need to promote hemp production and to allow us to grow our own specific kinds of pot for our own home use.  We have the opportunity to VOTE in early November this year.  As a unified, informed voting block we can cause change.
