BRECKENRIDGE — Voters in this Rocky Mountain resort town will decide next week whether to legalize pot for all adults at a time when the movement to allow medical marijuana is gaining steam around the country.
A measure before Breckenridge voters in Tuesday's municipal election would legalize possession of up to 1 ounce of marijuana along with bongs, pipes and other pot paraphernalia. Supporters of the measure say it would inch the whole state closer to full legalization.

Come on Breckenridge voters, do the right thing and pass this measure!
As a side note, I was listening to Caplis and Silverman the other day on the radio and Dan Caplis said something along the lines of “these medical marijuana dispensaries are supplying marijuana to those who are not sick”. My response to this assertion is “so what?”. Can you blame pot smokers for trying to reduce their chances of going to jail, even if that means faking an illness? If the government were to pass a law making alcohol illegal except by prescription, then lots of drinkers would go to the doctor and claim to have whatever illness they think would get them a prescription for alcohol.
