    I'm just trying to understand, the Constitution is bad; child molestation and legislators smoking pot in the people's chamber is ok. That is the message you have sent to the people of Colorado.
    Eloquent
    I doubt if it was a legislator that blazed up, probably a smart assed citizen.
    But and maybe I am wrong but I always was taught that a Capitol is a place of respect and a certain reverence is held for those halls and chambers.
    I too fail to see the humor of an elected official making light of the situation.

    More and more I'm left with thoughts that would get me banned were I to express them publicly.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    So, we were scolded for applauding a guy who after being shot five times saved his own life exercising his 2nd amendment right, but it is OK to smoke weed in the Senate chamber.

    Just another reason to question the legitimacy of our state general assembly members... Emotionally compromised, ignorant, party pawns, and not dope smokers. Yeah, I'd like to say I'm surprised, but I'm not.
