Happy 420 ya'll we've come a long way

Some days I shocked how well things are going. It's not over yet but the times are a changing...

One day we'll live free and no longer in fear. Fear of losing jobs, fear of being raided, your dogs shot, your children kidnapped by the state. Your land stolen, and maybe even your life lost. Fear no more, the times are a changing.

Thousands toking up at civic center yesterday and today.

Tens of thousands attending the High Times Cannabis Cup.

420 billboards along the main drags.

All kinds of 4/20-related concerts and other activities.

And pot shops!

I made my historic first legal purchase of marijuana yesterday (not counting Amsterdam).

In celebration!

Frankly I am surprised it is legal anywhere in a place this reactionary.

My kids are adults now, so I don't worry so much anymore.

We are going to "The Four Corners" on a road trip this summer, really shows how lame the laws are in the non-Colorado states (and others). I imagine even Missouri will soon see how much Colorado is raking in in tax money, and saving on prosecuting people for smoking a plant.
