二個科羅拉多夥計是 設法得到償還 某處在鄰里$200,000為39罐種植當地警察非法地被佔領，然後退回一年後，完全地破壞。
我不是常駐水栽法專家，但是我是肯定的開會在警察地下室沒有光，不可能是好為植物。 某些植物是那麼非常分解他們把變成黑色，發霉的液體。 沒有報告是否夫婦設法抽液體。

2006年11月8日 Tim
看似吸煙者很快不會是聚合的在科羅拉多作為大麻麥加的雜草。 更加安全的科羅拉多 在他們的使一盎司雜草合法的競選遞了失敗為對21+年olds的個人使用。
但是，泥工Tvert -更加安全的競選主任-採取了它在大步并且有說的此：
它相當明顯很多人在科羅拉多是在大麻禁止不運作的協議。 我們認為這是第一步在5 -到10年的過程。
他補充說，它是一次堅韌爭鬥隔夜改變75年大麻禁止，但更加安全是由挑戰決定。
I agree with Mason in that I believe this is the beginning of a slow, uphill struggle. The bright side is that the ball has started to roll and is gaining size and speed with each day.

Marijuana Reform Breakdown
November 4th, 2006 by Alex
TalkLeft has put together a nice, quick breakdown of the upcoming marijuana reform initiatives that are taking place in Colorado, Nevada and South Dakota. This years’ mid-term elections are not only important because of the obvious Democrat vs. Republican struggle, but also because these measures might be the first steps toward legalization.
Public opinion is starting to swing in many states. Organizations like LEAP and SAFER Colorado are doing their part to improve awareness and promote the benefits of herb rather than the demonization and scare tactics employed by the US government.
Overall, even if these measures don’t succeed (and I sure as hell hope they do), I still believe we are on the path towards a more intellectual approach to smoking. When you compare the benefits and drawbacks against many other legal substances in the US, it’s hard to argue otherwise.

Pro-Marijuana Billboards in Colorado
October 27th, 2006 by Alex
In Colorado, the leading front for marijuana reform is developing. SAFER Colorado is making a strong push for publicity before the upcoming vote on Amendment 44.
So, what’s the best way to get the word out? The same way anyone who wants to successfully promote something does it - with a hot broad in a bikini. Damn smart move.
On a more serious note, this ad clearly points out the obvious benefits of marijuana over alcohol. When stated so clearly, it’s hard to ignore the evidence. Hopefully, a majority of the Colorado people feel the same way and start pushing the US one step closer to legalization.

DEA Fights Colorado Pot Legalization
August 28th, 2006 by Alex
The DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency) is now inserting its large nose into Denver’s legalization movement. One agent in particular, a Mr. Michael Moore (not to be confused with the documentary director), has sent numerous emails to political campaign heads asking for support in the fight against Safer Colorado’s initiative. This should raise the alarm on multiple levels, especially the right of state legislations to create their own laws without interference from the federal goverment.
The emails being sent by DEA Agent Michael Moore state that he has $10,000 ready to start the anti-legalization campaign and that all interested parties should contact him at this DEA office. Now, Colorado law prohibits state employees from using state resources to advocate any political point of view. Unfortunately, the DEA is regulated by federal law, not state law. The feds are regulated by something called The Hatch Act. Passed in 1939 and amended in 1993, it is aimed at stopping partisan politics. In other words, it prevents the majority party in the goverment from using tax payer money against the opposing political party and its political movements.
What this means to the average Joe, is that the DEA is side-stepping this act, slipping through the cracks if you will, to oppose a law that will basically render their jobs impotent. Of course a a government agency that makes its livelihood our of tracking, arresting, and prosecuting drug offenders is going to fight the Colorado ballot initiative.
The federal government needs to respect the constitution and the ideologies that it was built upon. Unfairly influencing state level ballots is highly unethical and, as far as I’m concerned, dirty tactics in their War on Drugs.
Leading up to this vote, tFS is going to keep a close eye on the happenings in Colorado. Also, expect to see some more amusing information on the DEA. I’m sure native Coloradans can’t wait to see some “fair and unbiased” facts in DEA sponsored commercials. Riiiiight.
