US CO: Editorial: Another Amendment Where A Law Should Be
Mountain Valley News, 17 Oct 2012 – Colorado citizens could well be burdened with another constitutional amendment that will have far-reaching consequences, which we see as detrimental to our historic values. First of all, we must admit that we are reluctant to go along with the total legalization of marijuana, but that is a very personal thing on our part. We also admit that, sooner or later, that legalization will likely be accomplished. Our problem now is just how it will be accomplished.

US CO: Editorial: Vote ‘No’ On Amendment 64
The Steamboat Today, 06 Oct 2012 – We long have held that a high threshold should be surpassed in order to amend the Colorado Constitution. Most ballot amendments in recent years haven’t come close to measuring up. Such is the case with Amendment 64, which would allow for the possession, sale and taxing of marijuana in Colorado. While we can sympathize with some of the arguments proponents make, the state’s Constitution isn’t the place to address marijuana legalization, especially when such legalization will be in direct conflict with federal law. Residents should vote "no" on Amendment 64.
