The citizens of Denver are having a vote on whether to legalize 1 oz or less of marijuana, and the DEA has this dire prediction:

"People will flock to Denver to use marijuana," said Sergeant Stedenko Jeffrey Sweetin, head of the Rocky Mountain Division of the Drug Enforcement Administration.

No they won't. People are not going to 'flock' somewhere to use one ounce of marijuana. He must be on crack.

Somebody should point out to this twit that they already flock to Boston. It's not even legal here, but about an eighth of our population uses it IIRC, and our city has somehow not collapsed in a rampage of crime and lawlessness like a bad 1980's Republican-wet-dream cop drama.

Of course, my jaundiced opinion is that people who don't secretly hope to live in a bad 1980's cop drama don't join organizations like the DEA in the first place.
