If more states legalize cannabis, this wouldn't even be news. It would be a normal occurrence.

Colorado and a handful of other states got it right.

So we must smoke pot, legalize pot for people to be kind.......

Humans are not so easy to please, once this is passed what will be next heroin. Don't get me wrong I am for adults smoking...... I just prefer they grow their own and pass it around like in the old days.

Maybe she just wanted to show a little support for cops since they are being targeted for death by Obama's chillren.

You do know that the entire universe does not revolve around pot, right?

Yep. Just like it doesn't revolve around Obama.

"Obama's children."

What word is that code for?

I'm amazed she wasn't tased and/or laughed at for attempting to hug a cop.

Serious kudos to that officer for his compassion and humanity. He is a true role model.

How incredibly irresponsible of your mother to say that. No child should be told such an awful statement.
