He was the chairman of the fair chase committee. 2008 and 2010.

He was the one who obtained everyone's email from the Game and Fish Department and spammed sportsmen's inboxes up to five times.

I don't know what the opponents of Measure 5 were thinking allowing him in front of a microphone.

For the common sense person that can see through him and his BS he did more harm than good supporting his cause. Where he did good was fear mongering others by throwing all drugs into the statistics and continually claiming that it has no medical values.

His facebook page is full of it .

The study found that those who used pot daily were three times more likely to have a psychotic episode compared with someone who never used the drug.

Those who started using cannabis at 15 or younger had a slightly more elevated risk than those who started using in later years.

Use of high-potency weed almost doubled the odds of having psychosis compared with someone who had never smoked weed, explains Di Forti.

And for those who used high-potency pot on a daily basis, the risk of psychosis was even greater — four times greater than those who had never used.

More homeless schizophrenics will at least make your day interesting!

Another study:

There is now reasonable evidence from longitudinal studies that regular cannabis use predicts an increased risk of schizophrenia and of reporting psychotic symptoms. These relationships have persisted after controlling for confounding variables such as personal characteristics and other drug use. The relationships did not seem to be explained by cannabis being used to self-medicate symptoms of psychosis. A contributory causal relationship is biologically plausible because psychotic disorders involve disturbances in the dopamine neurotransmitter system with which the cannabinoid system interacts, as has been shown by animal studies and a human provocation study.

Over use of any thing is bad nothing ground breaking there. Just look at all the fat people that can’t put down the spoon and how much that costs everyone every year in medical costs.

Greenhorn has been brainwashed it appears. Reaching pretty hard for an excuse to vote no. Freedom of choice swayed by some shitty stuff he read on the internet. Must be true right.

… and several years of working with homeless people in Denver.
With regards to the studies I shared, are they wrong? Did you read them? What in your opinion is false?
