SAFER's Mason Tvert has a new piece on The Huffington Post discussing a recent poll that found more support for marijuana legalization among Colorado voters than for any of the candidates in the state's gubernatorial and Senate races.

Here's an excerpt, or you can CLICK HERE to read the entire post:

 Marijuana Legalization Tops All Colorado Gubernatorial and Senate Candidates

According to a statewide poll released this week by Rasmussen Reports, marijuana legalization is more popular in Colorado than any of the candidates running for governor and the U.S. Senate.

As popular Colorado political blog FaceTheState.com reported today:

Now, according to Rasmussen, a full 49 percent of Coloradans support legalizing and taxing marijuana, and only 39 percent think it should remain illegal. With the remaining 13 percent undecided, these new numbers might give a likely new legalization ballot measure this year some real ammunition.

 The message that marijuana is safer than alcohol is spreading in California as the vote draws closer on a statewide initiative to Control and Tax Cannabis

As the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin reports

Whatever the medical value of cannabis is, proponents of the new initiative make no bones about their view that there's nothing wrong with recreational marijuana use.

"People like to party. People like to alter their consciousness," [marijuana advocate Lanny] Swerdlow said. "We've been doing this for so long that there's probably a genetic reason for it. We've got to give people a safer alternative."[emphasis added]

Russ Belville of NORML has a great piece posted on the NORML Stash Blog regarding the University of Notre Dame's hypocritical approach to marijuana and alcohol, particularly in light of a football player being busted for marijuana and a recent alcohol-related death involving a recruit. 

An excerpt is below or you can CLICK HERE to read the entire piece:

If you are under the age of 21, both alcohol and marijuana are drugs that are illegal for you to possess and use.  But only one of them is celebrated in our culture, considered a normal part of “growing up”, and leads to countless student sexual assaults, violence, and the occasional death...

...Y’know, college kids just naturally engage in illegal drinking, it’s what college kids do.  Sure, some of ‘em die from drinking games, keg stands, and beer bongs, so why is it even an issue?  But if the football player is caught smoking a cannabis bong…?
