Several Colorado groups are interested in putting a citizen’s initiative on the ballot in 2012 to amend the state Constitution to “legalize” cannabis, but what does “legalization” really mean? Can all these groups work together to create true legalization based on cannabis freedom? In an attempt to find unity among these groups, Legalize2012.com has organized the “Great Legalization Debates of 2012”. The goal of the debates is to discuss ideas, policy and strategy on what will work best to protect Colorado cannabis consumers from arrest, prosecution and discrimination. Colorado is a model for the rest of the country, yet we don’t have a clear idea of what is the best cannabis law for the state.
Will the Department of Revenue law enforcement officers be allowed to control all cannabis in the state, as MPP’s Colorado initiative proposes, or should an amendment be proposed to get law enforcement out of the system and let the Health Department regulate cannabis or to form an independent commission of the state’s cannabis experts?
Is Colorado ready for true “legalization”, or do we really want more regulations on cannabis?
Join us in this lively and friendly debate amongst legalization supporters to determine the best path for a Colorado citizen’s ballot initiative to amend the Constitution in 2012.
