Republicans who opposed the measure said marijuana is a gateway drug that would lead to greater use of opioids and other dangerous substances. They also said the pot sold today is far more potent than what was sold decades ago, leading to greater impairment for those who use it. They said decriminalization is not the priority that lawmakers should be focused on now, with the war in Ukraine and inflation driving up the cost of gas, food and other essential items.

Republicans can seriously fuck off about this.

I used to be very much in favor of legalizing pot. However, it's become obvious that most if not all the cities/states that have legalized pot have turned into complete shitholes within a decade or less of doing it. It might be just a coincidence, but I think it needs to be evaluated further before implementing it on a national level.

Likely liberal places have done it were on the path to being shitholes for other reasons already. I don't know that I'd call the entire state of Colorado a shithole either.
