Daily Reporter-Herald, 16 Jun 2012 – To the editor: A recent Rasmussen poll showed that 61 percent of Coloradans favor marijuana legalization. Amendment 64 would legalize and regulate marijuana like alcohol. It makes sense considering marijuana, unlike alcohol, doesn’t cause overdoses, isn’t physically addictive or a contributor to violent behavior. How often have we heard about domestic abuse stemming from alcohol? Often, yet violent crime induced by marijuana use is extremely rare. When’s the last time you heard about someone abusing his wife after using marijuana? I can’t think of any since marijuana generally reduces aggression.
