MARIJUANA IS DANGEROUS

Because Colorado has materially experienced some advantages by
legalizing the sale of marijuana for recreational use, one needs to
evaluate what the real disadvantages are.

To say "marijuana does not kill anyone" is unrealistic when the use of
marijuana many times leads to the use of heroin or other drugs that
end in death, like my 20-year-old nephew, or may be a danger to others.

Marijuana is a drug. Use it only for medicinal purposes. If marijuana
can be legalized for recreational use, then why are not other drugs
being legalized for recreational use?
