Mr. Lyons repeats the lies of the pot heads across the country who have been trying to legalize their pet drugs for decades. Law enforcment does not 'waste time' on pot arrests. Police time is not distributed like a manufacturing plant where you can free up an officer from pot to work on violent crime. Violent crimes always get worked on before other crimes. I have no idea how the author comes up with 12million dollars spent on enforceing marijuana laws and neither does he. It's an estimate at best and I'm sure it is far from reality. Police departments don't track such things.

People will still sell marijuana to avoid the government tax. It has created a huge black market in Colorado. Anyone buying this authors crap is already high.
