The Missouri legislature is likely a prohibitionist majority and it only takes a few bad apples to spoil the bunch. Colorado re-legalized cannabis over a year ago and the sky hasn't fallen in. A sane reason to continue caging responsible adults for using what God says is good on the first page of the Bible doesn't exist. Stan White is a resident of Dillon, Colo. - --- MAP posted-by: Matt
