The Continuing Crapification of Colorado

From the AP:

 GUNFIRE ERUPTS AT COLO. POT EVENT, 2 WOUNDED 
DENVER (AP) -- Authorities are hunting for suspects after shooting broke out during a massive marijuana celebration in Denver, leaving two people with gunshot wounds. The gunfire scattered thousands attending Saturday's 4/20 counterculture holiday, the first since Colorado legalized marijuana. 
 LOL! I've given this a lot of thought, and here's what I (and the late Shel Silverstein) think:


Now I ain't makin' no excuses for the many things I uses
Just to sweeten my relationships and brighten up my day
But when my earthly race is over and I'm ready for the clover
And they ask me how my life has been I guess I'll have to say

I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and it rolled right by
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned oh me oh my

As several friends of mine have put it:
The locusts first descended on California and the West Coast in the 1950s and 60s. Now that they've nearly destroyed those states, they are working on the rest of the western states.

Funny how this never happens at a Tea Party Rally.

Not that is a grand conspiracy, but doesn't it seem like certain people in this country want the masses to have legalized pot and no guns? Get high and do nothing so people can tell/force you to go along with their programs, and the people just take another hit.

It was justifiable.

They were down to the last bag of doritos and he wouldn't share.

Afroman's Because I Got High.
and different song by Shel Silverstein: The Great Smoke Off
