The ‘No On 64: Wrong for Colorado’ campaign is using the same old Reefer Madness misinformation.

This Weedist series is dedicated to stopping the misinformation [~3 meg PDF, No On 64 ‘fact’ sheet] being spread by the campaign to prevent Colorado voters from legalizing marijuana with Amendment 64. For those who didn’t catch Moirai’s recent article, the No On 64 campaign is principally funded (95%) by alleged former child abusers and rehab profiteers.

In part 1 of “Colorado Amendment 64: Know the Lies“, Old Hippie tore apart the No On 64 campaign’s argument that marijuana is not safer than alcohol and tobacco. Marijuana clearly is a much safer substance than either alcohol or tobacco. In part 2, I am attacking their claim that marijuana is addictive.

This is a direct quote from their ‘fact sheet’ and, as Old Hippie pointed out, there are no sources for their information. They simply say it, and people are supposed to believe it. Well, here at Weedist we know better.
