And right after you graduate this class they should mandate a "Collateral Damages of Marijuana Legalization" Bachelor of Arts curriculum.
Such as:
Why auto insurance rates rise after legalization
Why the MVA rate skyrockets after legalization
Why homelessness increases exponentially after legalization
Why property crimes increase after legalization
Why the motor vehicle theft rate increases after legalization
Why Cartel activities continue to persist after legalization
Why the tax dollars collected on marijuana sales do not go to their "intended" purpose
Why hard drug use has continued to rise after legalization
Snippets like this should be part of the presentation*:https://www.denver7.com/news/local-n...ing-of-2-teensQuote:
"Tragedy" isn't quite the description I would use, unless describing the fallout for the homeowner. I am not a big fan of pot, but he clearly has legal right to be growing his own on his property and an expectation that the product will not be stolen by armed juvenile thieves.

I am sure it happens all they time, but this would be a scenario, like post-ban dates mags, where it could cause issues.
