Dopers In Da Boat Make The WSJ

That's the perception presented in my opinion anyway. The linked to article is fairly decent but the so called doktor Kelly in the video and print has problems and that was found out in comment threads locally. The numbers are actually fairly startling across the state for businesses allowed and then forced to shut down with no compensation.

This effort to ban these businesses was calculated and planned across the state. This was not done in these localities by groups of concerned residents/citizens because the fabric of their local community was being ripped apart by people smoking MM who had always been smoking it anyway. The badges were involved as well and this was done behind closed doors by the right. And it works real good. From the WSJ.

Local law-enforcement authorities are also pushing for a ban, warning that increased marijuana use endangers public safety. Steamboat Springs police arrested 17 drivers suspected of being high on cannabis last year, up from 9 in 2009. The state as a whole is on pace for more than 1,600 positive cannabis tests this year from drivers pulled over for showing signs of impairment. That's the same as last year but double the 2009 numbers.

Down the road a bit a legal grower was recently arrested and charged with DUID. These numbers are up because the badges made them go up. This man was targeted make no mistake about that.
