Colorado has become a
4G focused network, and I’m not talking about cellular coverage. I’m referring
to: Grass. Gay Rights. Guns. And Gas.
Oh, the questions that
plague the minds of Colorado voters. Should we be allowed to do this, should it be
okay to do that, and so on and so forth.
It’s absolutely exhausting.
Statewide, Coloradans
can roll a fatty, smoke a doobie and carry up to an ounce of marijuana without
worrying about being arrested by local law enforcement. This law sort of gives the John Denver song a
whole new meaning…“Rocky Mountain high,
Colorado.” While half of the state
celebrates with a half pipe, the other half labors over what new laws need to
be instated to ensure driver safety and penalties for stoned driving…that is,
if they can determine beyond a shadow of a doubt that a person is indeed stoned
when they are pulled over. While radical
Republicans worry that Colorado will become the next Amsterdam, radical
liberals bask in the beauty of their peace pipes and utter, “I love you, man.”
And that’s just one issue
plaguing the state. Republicans are up
in arms about the Gay Rights bill passed, allowing civil union for
homosexuals. Liberals proclaim they won’t
stop fighting until a bill allowing gay marriage is passed; while radical
right-wingers revolt, spewing God’s judgment and condemnation on the state.
And those in the middle
roll another fatty and hope everyone shuts up soon.
The whole state is up
in arms, literally, as gun shows reach an all-time high in both gun sales and
ammunition sales. Liberals fight for
magazine limits while Republicans try to shoot down their arguments.
And the rest of the
state wakes and bakes to try to avoid the conflict.
Gas prices skyrocket
and Environmentalists go crazy over Fracking.
Save the environment or lower the cost of fuel…apparently we can’t have
both.
And the stoners see
that if the radical left and right wing dopes would smoke some dope there might be peace in the
world.
What’s the answer? I have no idea. Maybe the left and the right need to be
locked in a room until they can hash it all out…no pun intended. Or, maybe the left and the right need to hash
it out in order to find the answer…pun intended that time. J
Either way, I think it's time to realize that our state is in a 4G debate that has no end in sight. The constant upheaval is exhausting. The
truth on all issues lies somewhere in the middle, in a position of compromise
and understanding….so let’s put that thought in our pipes and smoke it! ~
