Medical Marijuana

The state is facing a true challenge when it comes to medical marijuana use and distribution. Significant changes need to take place that will fulfill the voters intent passed in 2000. The current "legalize marijuana push" is not what the voters passed and is not what should be permitted in our state. The irresponsible comments of Denver police that state we don't' have evidence that dispensaries attract any more crime that other businesses flies in the face of reality. For example, all four of Lakewood's dispensaries have been robbed. Let's quit tiptoeing around the issue, and allow those who have a legitimate and verified need access, without making a mockery of the constitutional provision.
